I am new on this board but am having a very difficult problem.I had a daughter after many years of marriage due to unexplained fertility problem and finally succeded after ivf when i was 35 and now i discovered i am pregnant at 40.What should i do?.Is is ok to have a child at 40?.My husband is 45 and is very happy with the news.I am sometimes happy since my daughter will have a sibling.But i am having doubts whether it is advisable to have children at such old age.Do people in india have children at such an age?

sudha Sanjana replied. Hi.
Don' t worry about society..what they will think if you deliver in this age?.As Noworry advised talk to your doctors about this.It will be nice to have a sibbling for your daughter, not only for playing but in future if relation goes well they can share their feelings.It is a god given gift.By the way how old is your daughter?. Noworry replied. First of all congratulations on your pregnancy. Do not worry, my sis was pregnant when she was 43 & delivered a healthy baby. So keep all the hopes.
But do check with your doctor/gyn to measure the risks etc in your case as every individual is different.
Take it easy & all the best.
