I am worried about stuff happening if in 40s like late miscarriage or congential issues.
I know of someone who had a miscarriage yesterday.
That makes me sad for her.
She is in her 40s.
So that also got me thinking.
To consider earlier.
The main issue is finances.
I owe a substantial amount of money too.
Anyway just my thoughts on that.
Anyone else considering a late pregnancy?
My wife wants to get pregnant , but its extremely unlikely to happen naturally without assistance. She’s 48.
I’m good with it if she does but I realize how unlikely this is at our ages.
She often is convinced she is pregnant until she takes a test or has her period.
I think she has a little too much faith that its going to happen sometimes and only sets herself up for a letdown.
Yes it is unlikely.
But it still is possible indeed.
My friends friend had a baby at 50 she did it via IVF
wow cool that your wife still gets the flow at 48
Good luck it may happen u never know.
My brother and his girlfriend, she’s like 46, had to do a bunch of fertility treatments like IVF… they finally succeeded and have a daughter now who is about to be 5 months old 
You guys could always go that route.. but from what I’ve heard it’s crazy expensive 
Thanks @Wonderer .
I’m not sure if IVF would conflict with her religious beliefs.
Plus we are running into a lot of costs right now that might not make it a wise financial decision.
If we could unload her condo, it would help.
Yeah, understandable!
There’s also a blood test she could request where it guesstimates her egg reserve…
So you know if there’s a chance of it happening naturally..
If she’d be okay with that…
Interesting. I may bring that up with her. I had not heard of that blood test.
What is a condo 
A condominium. its like an apartment you own.
I’m pretty sure it’s called “anti-mullerian hormone” or something like that…
I can double check.
ok. thanks. Thats the last thing we want is Mullerians interfering with her eggs. Nasty creatures.
sounds like a star trek species
I guess it’s also referred to as “AMH levels”
Worth a shot to check it out if y’all are interested…
Not sure if you have much experience with young children… but WOW they’re a handful haha
yes, I have nieces and nephews. Most are older now but we have one young one. They can indeed be a handful.
Thanks again @Wonderer
Yeah @Zoe
Finances are important with kids…
But some people make it work no matter what.
I think a stable, helpful partner is important too..
I personally do not plan on having kids after 35.. but that’s me and my opinion at the current moment
No problem, you’re welcome! 
not to worry you or that its necessarily even a bad thing but i heard autism tends to happen when parents have children at older ages atleast perhaps if they carry the gene for it? idk just something i heard
You have a house and she owns an apartment?
Yes that is true.
All sorts increases in risk after 35
But i just cant have kids now
I need to be stronger mentally too not just financially
my son is 18 now
