Just turned 44 in dec and I am 28.5 weeks pregnant, without a uterus. And pregnant with twins.

Congrats!!

Well, congrats to you too ma'am.

Hey wow,im glad your doing well, did the doctors find your twins?

so does that mean they are on the wall of your abdomen? Thats crazy,congratulations lady! ! !

I dont eactly know where they are attached, feels like down by my ovary's. Dr's still trying to figure it out. They dont believe me, they were thinking I was crazy. But.... This last time I seen my dr she didnt act like she thought I was crazy, and she referred me to a .Dr who knows about abdominal pregnancy. Since the "normal pregnancy" tests do not come out for me. I go to see him on wednesday the 15th. I cant wait.

You are not alone, .I'm due .May 29th and my last pregnancy was sixteen years ago.

Greetings everybody out there. Just a word of positive advice. 40 is just a number. Your pregnancy will be fine as long as you are healthy, exercise and have no complications. I have seen much younger woman go through more complications than me - just turning 40 this year ! I have 2 wonderful boys 18 & 8. And got pregnant one after the other last couple of years and still feeling 25! So all those ladies who want a baby out there in your 40s. Go for it.

God bless you all, me too and I pray just to have a healthy one in my life

I am scared and very happy about being pregnant at age 47. My youngest is 17. I just need some other women to talk to about this

To become pregnant at 47, you are surely a blessed woman! Congratulations! (PS My mum was 48 with heart trouble when she had my brother and, apart from getting a bit tired towards the end and being taken into hospital for a rest two weeks before the due date, mother and baby were both excellent!)

Thank you for the nice encouragemment. I am so excited but scared also. I thought I was going into menopause but Surprise!

Miracles never cease! Proof there is a God in heaven! Studies have shown women who have children on in years are more tolerant, and a lot of times more"ready" to have them, than when they were much younger. Women in their 40's are more financially able to care for a child and most are educated beyond high school level. The studies showed that as we age, we are more prepared for rearing a child later on in years. Not saying young women are uneducated or not financially able ot care for a child.....I say its wonderful and a miracle for any woman to be able to have a child. I also say its wonderful and a miracle for God to "give " children through adoption (like my neice and nephew) to those who wish to become parents. Just want to ease some minds out there to all you terrific MOTHERS/ MOTHERS TO BE who are 40 . God bless you all and I hope you have healthy and happy babies! HUGS~

Wow, that's wonderful! How is the pregnancy going? I was wondering how the babies could survive without a uterus? I'm really interested on knowing how it works...and delivery options too.

I know 3 ladies here in my town who all gave birth at 49 and 50. It's truly an amazing thing. I am kind of hoping I don't have children when I am that age or up until that age....I have 6 already and that would end up being quite a handful!

my sister and i are 21 years apart... my mom had her at 20, and me at 41.... its crazy, my sister is 38 going to be 39, everyone thinks she is my mom , lol its funny!

I'm 39 and my husband and I have decided, just this week, to start trying. We met and married only 3 years ago and thought we never wanted kids. Now, we're trying - full steam ahead! I am dieting, taking folic acid, and making an appt with a genetic counselor on Monday. Neither of us wanted children our whole lives, now all of a sudden, we're really excited about the possibility of having a family. I'm nervous though, and don't want to get my hopes up.

I haven't tried naturally (without protection), but am setting appointment to consider artificially. I feel healthy and really hope I become pregnant.

Is there something particular I can do to increase my chance of becoming pregnant at 47? Lots of folic acid? Anything else? Thanks!

I am 48 and want to get pregnant for the first time. Is this really risky?
