Is 41 too old to hope to have a normal healthy child?
I know its definitely possible to have a baby at this age, but am I pushing my luck in thinking that I will have a healthy baby? |

Well its been done, many times. We have seen 60 year olds have babies - but how, I dont know!
Personally I dont want to have a baby after age 38.
But so many women are choosing to wait until they are nearly 40 to have a baby, I would say the risks are small. |

I wouldnt let t stop you. Its not impossible thats for sure, but there is an increased chance of birth defects and possibly not being able to fall pregnant in the first place.
it depends on your body and health though. |
