I will be 47 1/2 when this one arrives

I had my first at 43 1/2 and am pregnant again. Should this one go to plan I will be 47 1/2 when this one arrives!

OK, so I admit I also did DE [donor egg] both times (in Spain). I know quite a few ladies aged between 40 & 48 who also did DE, and add to those stats. But I also know quite a few ladies who fell pregnant naturally, well into their 40's.

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost that precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted that there will be no more babies in our house.
