Re: TTC and 48?Seriously

  • yeah, 48 seems to be pushing it a bit. 
  • I wouldn't do it personally, but you ARE on the TTC35 board.  The post is a bit sensitive since we all get jabs all over the Nest/Bump over what is "too old" to have a baby.  I am not going to take anything away from their decision.  They did what they think works best for their family.  I see no wrong in that.

    Sometimes I wonder if I will still be wishing and hoping at 48.

  • Agreed about what board we are on.

    And I have no idea if she had an RE or not, but for the record, my gramma was conceived in 1918 when her mom was 47.  No RE there. Her closest in age sibling was already fighting in the War.  The family story was he received a telegram "in the trenches" that said, "You have a baby sister" and he sent one back, "Haha."

  • Ya heard that, she had a boy!!  There is a girl in my town, she is 47 and she had a baby boy a few months ago, i kinda know her and am waiting to bump into her so i can grill her, nicely of course!!  *sigh* some people have all the luck Tongue Tied

    Wishing them all a wonderful pregnancy and lets hope we are as lucky!!!!

  • I know that "we" are on the TTC over 35

    I'm 2 months shy of 41 and still TTC, but I'm just saying that "Wow" it happened for them and She is 48! Didn't say anything about their ability to be good parents or that nature can't just step in sometimes.
