I just had my third child at 45. I did fertility with this pregnancy. But my first and second were at 40 and 41, completely natural. All healthy babies! Bless you and your family.
@@acsamosqueda5308 I say fight for the family you want. Sure there is a chance it might not work, but try to focus on the fact it could work! Sending you prayers and good thoughts that it will work out 🙏
Aw that is beautiful I decided I want children at 45 I was pregnant last year and had a miscarriage because my tsh levels were so high I not give up I at least want 1 child I look still in 30s but we run out of time after 40s 😢may GOD Bless those who wNt children
I’m 43 and just found out I’m pregnant about 4 hours ago!!’ My daughter is 22! This is my first child with husband. I’m scared but excited at the same time! I’ve never been more proud of my age either. God bless!
@@guinea.hill.homestead I’m feeling ok other than nausea. What about you? The hardest thing for me going to be starting over. I’ve had freedom for almost 10 years lol. I had my daughter when I was 20. The relationship was so bad with her dad and I did it on my own. I didn’t want another child unless I was in a secure relationship. Now I am, but all these years later smh 😂😂😂. I’m happy though. I haven’t told anyone yet. I’ll be 10 weeks tomorrow.
@@msezbreezy1 my first OB appointment is in about a week to see how far along I am. Cycles were not normal since I was in perimenopause and on hormone replacement therapy. I have to laugh. Lol. But I feel great, just extra tired in the evenings. I have a small body frame but I can already tell that I'm growing. I think I am about 2 months along.
@@guinea.hill.homestead I have a curvy frame. I’m a size 10, I’m scared I’m gonna blow up tho! 😂 I already told my husband I’m getting a tummy tuck 😂. I have my second appointment tomorrow. I’m going to try to see if I can hold off until the end of my 1st trimester than tell everyone. I just want to make sure everything is ok. Hope everything goes well with you and congratulations. Feel free to check in from time to time. Love and blessings from NYC! 🤗🤗🤗🤗
You are so blessed I'm 41 and trying with my partner of 7 years we have no kids together and we really want a baby together I have 3 kids 25, 20 & 8. May your journey be a blessed one. Congratulations🙏🏽🥰
I'm 44, my husband 49. We just found out we're pregnant naturally! We have a blended family w 6 children. 2, 22 yr olds, 21, 19, 17 & 15. This is our 1st child together. It was shocking but we're excited! I too feel extremely blessed to be in this position at our ages. I'm telling myself, I'm a woman, this is what my body was built to do....even at 44💗
@@soinlove6889 I’m 43 and just found out that I’m expecting. My fiancé and I get married in less than a month. Together we have 7 kids and this will be our first together. I am wondering a little about how this will go since it’s been 14 years since I have experienced a pregnancy. I’m wondering how this will compare to me being pregnant back then. Excited and nervous lol.
I’m pregnant with my first child at 43 years old! Naturally conceived with my young new husband 😀 I am so happy and feel so blessed 🙌🏽🙏🏽 It’s a miracle it’s very difficult to conceive and I’m proud as well.
It is more difficult for some than others. People don’t always immediately become pregnant, whatever their age, just because they haven’t yet gone through the menopause.
Thank you for sharing! I had my babies at 37, 39, and now pregnant again at 41. All natural by the grace of God. I agree with no inference when you feel well. It’s a pleasure to see motherhood truly beaming from you. 💕
Thank you for this video!! I am newly pregnant at 45 & feeling the same: no desire for interventions or negative commentary. Hearing from you is wonderful💕🙏🏼
I’m pregnant as well 44 this my third rainbow baby I’m currently 24 weeks may God continue to bless you ladies don’t give up it happened to me aswell believe have faith God is listing
You are right not wanting to hear negativity from medical staff. I am 43 years old and 33 weeks natural pregnant I hate going to to check ups because they make me feel like I am a dinosaur, I am even ashamed of being pregnant at my age because of how they have made me feel. Congratulations on your 9 child!
Congratulations on your pregnancy, that’s fantastic! Don’t feel ashamed about it, you should feel proud. Your body is healthy or you wouldn’t have naturally conceived at that age. Other people’s opinions are irrelevant. So many women your age are absolutely desperate to get pregnant, it’s a truly wonderful thing for you xxx
I had my 9th and 10th babies (Irish Twins) at 44 and 45 years old. My youngest is 4 months old so I'm in the thick of it. lol They're 11 months apart. Both shocked me. I had 4 babies from 39 years old to 45. I did nothing to conceive and was just super blessed. Congratulations!
I love your take on pregnancy I’m 43 and same thing happened for me naturally. Not seeing a doctor until later closer to the birth. I definitely don’t want the negativity and I do feel proud that I’ll be 44 when baby comes. 10 weeks here Thank you for your video
That's amazing, I didn't realise that not seeing a doctor/midwife was an option. It would be great to not have that interference, especially when you know that you and baby are healthy 🥰 Congratulations! 🎉
Congratulations! Im 42 and just found out 2 days ago im pregnant. Really scared for miscarriage considering I've had multiple prior. I've had 4 girls but being older its so much more scarier
I am turning 43 this month and 6 weeks pregnant. I am more than excited for my second baby. Got pregnant at 40 with my first one. And both pregnant naturally. Im with you on the negativity aspect. Children are blessings. Praying for a healthy and normal baby number 2. Those who TTC, entrust everything to God and miracles will happen 🙏
Yeah I get sad I’ve been trying I’m 46, never have been pregnant and am the only child. I’ve been praying 🙏 I know God is able. But I’d love to be sooner than later in JESUS name 🙏👑
I just had my 5th child at 41. People are definitely judgmental not only of my age but the number of kids I have. When did having a large family become taboo? And why do people find “16 & pregnant” shows entertaining but look down on older mothers. I was a young mom and an older mom - pros and cons to each but one thing is constant, my love for my children. Congrats to all moms, younger, older and in between !
I’m 42, trying to get pregnant 🤰🏽with my first child. We just started last month. Going to a fertility specialist, and my Obgyn just to check and see how everything is with me! Wish me luck! Congrats to you and your growing family!
After 12 years ttc, I had my first at 40 I did lifestyle changes and took supplements to boost my fertility and vitex with my first child until 12 weeks
I really needed this video! Please keep us updated!!! I am 43 and I am pregnant, naturally and it was such a surprise! And you are so right! About other videos or reads that scare us! God bless you 🙏 I am excited for you!
I’m 42 turning 43 next month, and we are trying to get pregnant. We just started trying last month. So happy for you! Hoping I will catch some of this pregnancy luck!
Congratulations! I'm 44, and TTC naturally. I understand how negative people can be. We have not sought any help because of the way we have been treated when even mentioning it. Blessings to you and thank you for sharing.
I wish you all the luck with ttc, I haven’t experienced any negativity from anyone with this pregnancy so far, I hope that continues to be the case and hope the same for you xx
Oh my life I love this ❤ I totally agree about the negativity. I am 45 and just found out I am 5 weeks pregnant with baby no 6. Thought I was going through perimenopause as I was 3 days late. I am shocked but very excited 😊
Hi im 45yearsold im trying to get pragnent for 9years now i did have a miscarriage in 2019 but until now evertime we try nothing happin im so sad we just want one child.
I honestly am so thrilled to see your attitude about not rushing to the midwife/doctor. I think people forget the fact women have been birthing babies for thousands of years without those appointments just fine. I was the same way. I went to the doctor “as needed”. I got a lot of negativity and it was irritating. My baby was born just fine💕
I was a maternity nurse for 15 yrs and the issue with delaying maternity care is that pregnancy can elicit lethal hypertension (pre-eclampsia/eclampsia) and gestational diabetes, and you'll more often than not, feel perfectly fine. I can't tell you how many women I've treated who were "non-compliant" who ended up in the ICU or worse, with stillborn babies. If it worked out for you, than you're very lucky, but this isn't a wise choice for most women.
I'm 43 and 13 weeks , have a nine year old. I recently got married and needed a child with my husband. I'm happy for my child, proud mama who wants to talk that would be their business. Congratulations hon. Children are blessings.
Hi I'm thrilled that my husband and I are finally pregnant naturally and I'm 43! We had a miscarriage and a failed IVF. I already had given up until my whole like changed. Today I am 11 weeks and while I didn't have any negative opinions from my regular OB, I am also seeing a OB specialist who is negative and it's making me feel ashamed of my age regardless if chromosome test came out normal, they still find a way to bring me down and talks about my "high risks". Thank you for your video you give me hope and positivity🙏💗
Rebuke them in JESUS name DONT accept that! Don’t let the em speak negatively into your life. You and your baby will be normal and healthy in JESUS name. Praying for my baby
Just this morning I took 3 tests...and unexpectedly they were positive. I am 42. I have been on hormone replacement therapy to stop early menopause. I am shocked. Absolutely shocked. I married my soul mate over 2 years ago and thought we missed our chance. I'm overwhelmed with worry, joy, ...there aren't proper words. So glad I'm seeing your video. It is helping calm the shock.
I'm 44 tomorrow and I just found out yesterday I'm pregnant. God willing this will be baby number 8. I'm nervous as I had a heart attack in Feb of this year and I have two stents in and have been on heart meds. I've stopped them and just waiting on cardiology calling me. Thank you for your videos and hope all is well with you and baby ♥️
@@largefamilymama so glad I found your channel I am loving all you do. It's been quite an eventful year but thank God all going well. I'm homeschooling our six younger kids as our eldest is still at school doing a levels. I still have had no call from cardiology and to be honest part of me is like I will just get through this. I always hated the hospital part of pregnancy it always caused me alot of stress. Hope all is well with you all. Thank you ❤️
What an uplifting and encouraging video. I’m pregnant with our 6th at 40, and I just needed to hear some positivity about this after being treated like a weirdo by some in the medical establishment. Thank you for sharing.
Congratulations!! It is outrageous the way women are treated by the medical establishment for something that is natural and wonderful and perhaps a sign of good health. I hope the pregnancy is progressing nicely for you.
I'm so happy!! This brings me so much joy and hope. I'm 44 and trying for our 1st. Maybe this video is a sign from God it's happening soon!! God bless you and your family! Thanks for sharing!
I'm 47 and pregnant --- naturally as well. I actually I'm surprised because I thought I was starting menopause!! 😮 Imagine my surprise to see that little peanut on the ultrasound. ❤
That’s so fascinating! I had exactly the same pregnancy experiences from one of the comments, I had my first born at 40 and had my second born at 41 and I will have my third when I turn 43 on December because I am pregnant again this month, never tried to get pregnant but I kept getting pregnant 😅 I met the right one, the love of my life on my late age, that’s why.
Thank you so much for sharing your story. Definitely encouraging and inspirational. I totally get it when you say about not wanting the negativity of the doctors!! There must be a change in how doctors treat older women wishing to be mothers
Have been told since I am over 35 I am "older" and should be careful... pregnant with #7 and so excited to meet this little one.... congratulations on another little Blessing from God! My grandma had her last at 51. Amish women we grew up near had children in their 50s:) God knows what we can handle.. :) praying you have a safe pregnancy
Just like you, I am 44 yrs young & expecting a baby due in June this summer. We have 5 children, & our youngest one will be 5 years in the month of June too. We were very conscientious about trying to conceive -- from cycle monitoring to lifestyle changes that aligned to self care. Not to mention we wanted to add 1 more to our blended unit. Our 1st four children are very older in age -- 2 are now young single adults & 2 are in high school close to finishing (jr & sr). So it only made practical sense that our youngest has a buddy to grow up with as part ofis upbringing. In the past, I am what you would call "Fertile Myrtle" so when my mind is made up to try and have a kid, it happens within the 1st month, but this time around, it took a lil longer than expected -- close to a year. In all honesty, we are so thankful for this baby and doing all we can to stay positive & fit for our physiological well being. So far, it's been a wild first & 2nd trimester of turns but all worth the suffering. Now entering my lasy trimester so I am very conscious of staying active & productive to prepare for our shining new baby. God be with me always.

I just got back from my first appointment and found out I'm pregnant with twins! Babies #7 & #8 will come right in time for my 40th birthday! I conceived completely naturally. I am so excited! However, I am also a bit "let down" I was expecting an encouraging and positive visit. The midwife was negative, made me feel "old", and went on about how I'm high risk for this and high risk for that and gave me a judge-y look when I mentioned that I'm a carrier for a genetic disorder. She then insisted that because I'm "old" and having twins I need to immediately start taking low dose aspirin everyday. I have LOW blood pressure and have struggled with my blood pressure getting too low with every pregnancy. I also have thin blood. So why should I take a medicine to lower my blood pressure and thin my blood more? I was so confident before the appointment and now I feel overwhelmed and fearful. I'm glad I found this video to see some positivity with women my age having Babies with no fear! Just joy! 😊
This is very encouraging. I am 41 years old and will be 42 in a few months. I desire to get pregnant again but I have been a little nervous about trying again. I had my first miscarriage at 34 and gave birth to my daughter at 35. I had a second miscarriage in 2020 and haven't tried again since. I am focusing on my health as far as diet and exercise with plans of trying again sometime this year. Thanks for sharing your story!
I'm 43 and just found out 3 days ago I'm pregnant. I just took the test for fun because I spotted as lil for this month. And I'm like woah.. seriously. I already have five boys. 🥰🤰🏿. So I guess I need to get ready
Thank you sooo much for sharing. Especially your attitude towards doctors. Any real healing I have ever experienced has never come from going to a "normal" doctor, so I hardly ever go there. I am 44 now, got surprise pregnant, unfortunately miscarried very early on and went to a gynecologist just to be sure. And immediately I get the "At your age" thing... I am not stupid, I know our bodies change and the probability of conception might change with age. But why focus on negativity and - as you say - be patronizing and condemning just because a woman is over 40?!
The man that helped me can also help you out my love .he helped me wen all hope was lost after been TTC for 9 years with 4 misscarriage .I almost gave up but he gave me hope now am a mom of twins baby girls he is so powerful
@@largefamilymama I’m Scared to bits due to my age , I was told I couldn’t have more kids naturally … haven’t told many other than my husband … but I’m not a spring chicken anymore like when I had my son at 28 so I’m a little scared 6weeks 4 days
I’m also kinda scared I’ll be judged since my husband and I will be older parents now … a baby is a blessing but I’m scared how others reactions will be fearing judgement
If you stay happy and positive it will have an affect on those around you, if you seem happy about it then they’ll be more likely to feel happy too. This is a wonderful thing, almost a miracle XX
Loved hearing your story, thank you for sharing! I can relate to so much of what you have experienced. I am 46 years old and 22 weeks pregnant with my 6th child! Another miracle yes! All natural conceptions and births. I was married at 36 so I'm playing catch up! I had two miscarriages initially but then had my progesterone levels monitored with my next pregnancy, they did not rise as they should so I supplemented with natural progesterone from Mexican yam and did the same with all my subsequent pregnancies into the second trimester. All babies were born naturally, healthy and well. I can relate to the medical professionals interference and sometimes even negative comments. I find it extraordinary that people should think they have a right to judge our choice and right to have a large family but not those who choose to have a small one! Bizarre double standards! Anyhow you are an inspiration to me, of tranquility and generosity and I wish you all the best with your beautiful family. God bless.
@@largefamilymama Thank you! 🥰 BTW, baby no. 6 has be born safe and well, 7 weeks old now, another natural birth fortunately with no complications, she is a bonny one! 😍
Thank you. Between my husband and myself we have 9 children, five are mine. I am 43 and my husband is 47. We just found out we are 7 weeks pregnant. Trying not to get too excited as we lost one two years ago.
I'm 40 and just had a miscarriage. Hoping to try again. Everything on the internet is so discouraging, judgemental and terrifying. Thank you and your commenters for these uplifting stories. Congrats! :)
I have about 5 friends who hD natural pregnancies and births over 41/42. I live in a capital city and know far more than had them under 40. It’s just the norm for me tbh to see if work out
@@Mang-ej5ul My mom and grandma suffered miscarriages all throughout their younger years, only reaching success conceiving and carrying to full term in their older years. You will have a baby! You’re welcome ❤️
You really give me hope with this vid☺️ I’ll be 44 this week and we miscarried this summer. We were Really saddened but haven’t given up hope. Now Taking a natural fertility cleanse to improve our chances🙏🏾🙏🏾
My wife was able to conceive naturally, although it took a few years but we managed to have luck on our side. I'm 28 and she's 45 now, had our 2 year old daughter when she was 43; honestly she's just happy to be a mother, she thought that door closed years ago.
@@largefamilymama I get naysayers judging me, since society thinks younger men and older women in relationships is weird; but I couldn't care less, I love my family.
@@blairexodus8005 im 39 and my wife is 44.. we have been trying for a few years now hoping that we are blessed one day.. these messages give hope as 44 isnt an age with much of chances
@@TheViperDawg My wife had a huge confidence boost from her pregnancy, she doesn't even hide her gray hair anymore and works out more often, prior to that she had depression issues.
I like this story I am 40 and my bf is 28 and I know he would like a child and I am open to it as well it would be my first I’ve only ever wanted one though and was kind of ok with none. It’s more about meeting the right person for me and that can take time for some of us lol
I'm 41, will be 42 next month. I just found out I am pregnant again, naturally, after a MMC last year with my 1st baby at 40. I'm extremely hopeful that I will carry my rainbow baby full term, happy and healthy. Thank you so much for sharing this video and giving such a positive perspective for us moms and mothers-to-be in our 40's and any woman after 35, who medical professionals consider, of advanced maternal age❤
My husband of 20 years and I have been thinking about getting pregnant for the first time. I just turned 44!!! I am totally not afraid. It either happens, or not. We’re a little concerned because a few of the boys in his and my family have had some learning disabilities, and autism. I am so okay with my kid being different from other kids. If that’s the case. I was thinking I was too old until I saw this video and all the comments. Congratulations!!! Who cares about what other people think. If you’re confident, and you’ve already raised a family for most of your adult life, who would know better about having a baby?! It’s just a different age. Go to a doctor only if you feel you need to. My doctor told me last year to go ahead and try. 😅 I never had money or time before. Right now I’m in the perfect place in life to have a baby. If not, we’ll just foster. Keep us posted on your baby bump.
How'd it go? Idk how I got here. Maybe from all of the negativity that has been coming from men online about women of a certain age group. I hope you had a successful pregnancy. I wish you and your husband lots of luck!!
My brothers god mother had her tubes tied and surprise she found out she’s pregnant at 44. God is so good. She’ll be 45 when she gives birth. She’s super happy.
I have 4 birth kids and 4 step kids that I’ve raised. Now raising a 2 year old granddaughter. Just found out I’m 45 with iud and pregnant!!! Not expected but definitely excited!! Thanks for this video! I happened on it and it was exactly the peace I needed!
I absolutely love this! ❤️ You are an inspiration 😍 I'm 43 and me and my partner would love a baby together, we both have children from previous relationships. My mum had me at 41 and concieved first try so I'm keeping my fingers crossed 🤞🤞 thank you for this video, it makes us 40 something ladies feel like humans not dinosaurs! Xxx
Hello there, this is a wonderful video I've ever watched. You just give me great inspiration that I could still get pregnant. I'm 43 years old now and about to reach my 44 by July this year. I stop going to the doctor for all the response I'm getting is negative. For now me and my husband just praying and doing all the necessary things to do so that we can conceived very soon. Congratulations to your upcoming baby angel. take lots of care and keep safe. definitely will follow your channel. My name is Arceli from Washington State U.S.A. God bless your entire family
HUGS TO YOU from ITALY!💓💓💓I'm pregnant at 44 too, first baby after my whole life of suffering infertility with miscarriage and other issues....I don't know how to live it with serenity and the right happiness with the right mood to remeber these moments with a big smile, I feel terrified for my baby because I know it's a miracle and the very last occasion but I WANT TO BE HAPPY BECAUSE I DESERVE IT AFTER ALL OF THESE YEARS! I'm 18 weeks pregnant , are you girls doing something like exercises or other things to live it better? I use to do mindfulness and it helps but I can't do it all day long😆😆
This video has touched my heart. It was heartwarming and inspirational letting me know not to give up. I am 47 years old and I desire to have a baby. I have three children ages 24, 23 and 15. What a joy it would be for God to allow me to conceive my fourth child.
Congratulations! You are glowing! I’ll be 45 in three weeks and have a 4 year old daughter. I’ve been thinking about having another lately, but wasn’t sure if I should. Sometimes I think I might not have enough energy for another☺️, but if you can be a mother of eight, you’ve given me more confidence that I can have another. ❤️
I wish i can share mine. I am 44, been late for almost a week. Hopefully i am pregnant for the first time. Will come back and share my story when I am positive. Love your story and everyone in the comments. Wishing everyone a successful pregnancy
@@rebekahpowers1595 it was a big surprise but when she arrived we were happy to have her and she fit right in. I do feel I’m a little less active than I was with my other children but I also enjoy all the stages of her development more because I remember how fast kids change and I want to hold those moments close.
I had a miscarriage after 2 healthy kids in my 30s at 38. We tried for well over a year and nothing. I am now 2 months into being 40 and I just found out I'm pregnant. I am terrified of another miscarriage. Thank you. I feel allot better after seeing this. You are beautiful. Congratulations!
That’s fantastic news! This is what you’ve wanted for so long, allow yourself to feel pleased at conceiving after trying for years. Miscarriages are most unpleasant, I have had many and would tell myself they happened for a good reason. If I hadn’t been brave enough to carry on trying for more babies after miscarriages then I wouldn’t have all the children that I’m lucky enough to have. It is nerve wracking for the first few months of pregnancy, I truly hope things work out for you. It is definitely possible. Do your best to stay stress free and be optimistic. Worrying won’t make anything better xxx
I’m unexpectedly expecting at 44. We struggled to have our first three and while we always wanted 4, when we were unable to conceive after our last when I was 39, we figured we were done for good and gave everything away. Now we are going to have a newborn in August, along with a 10.5 year old, 9 year old and 6.5 year old.
Wow! I guess I just assumed we HAD to seek out medical treatment when pregnant. I think I still would have with my son because I was pretty scared. But after eight kids you probably feel like you’ve got it in the bag and I probably would do it without doctors also. You look SO GOOD for 44! I had my son when I was 35 (considered geriatric pregnancy) and thankfully my OB said she had her first at 40. I really wanted multiple kids because my family was 4 kids when I grew up. So was my husband’s. And sometimes my son looks so lonely-he’s really drawn to other kids. We’ve been trying for a few years. I’ve had 4 miscarriages and a missed miscarriage at 11 weeks. The hardest thing I had been through. You’re giving me hope. Thank you so much for posting this! You look great!
Your calming spirit seriously needs to be bottled up and sold... or given away to those who truly need it. You've inspired myself and so many others. All the best with your new bundle of joy :)
Congratulations! Wishing you a healthy happy pregnancy! Nothing wrong with large families! I'm the oldest of 12, and Mom had her 12th when she was 42! My husband and I have 6 children. First two girls when I was 18 and 19, then in the next 14 years I had 3 miscarriages and after that we were blessed with 2 more girls and 2 boys! I had my last when I was 40.
I am currently 41, 42 in December, and my husband and I are trying for our second. This gives me so much hope. I've had 2 chemicals in the last 6 months and am praying for my rainbow baby. I want so badly to do it naturally. I'm on an array of supplements and have given myself until the end of the year and then in going to start getting some testing done to have a more targeted regimen.
I’m 40 pregnant with my first baby, it was conceived naturally. I feel fine and healthy, my medical studies have come out great, but every time I go to the doctor they make me feel guilty for waiting until now to have a baby. It’s hard not to feel discouraged after hearing all the risks. I’m considering skipping my appointments just because every time I come back from the doctor I feel worried and guilty even if everything seems going well. I wish you the best!
Don’t let them make you feel that way. They tried to make me feel the same way and so did friends and family. I just had a baby at 40 and I conceived him with ease and he is beautiful and healthy and I am healthy. Be proud of yourself and your body!
Don’t feel bad, it’s normal to have a baby at 40. Not everybody has met the right partner earlier in life or they have a million and one other reasons why they left having a baby until 40. It’s nobody else’s business. How are you feeling now?
Congratulations. I’ll be 40 this month on the 26th. Born in 1983& have a 21 yrs old son& 19 year old daughter & found out today im also with child. I missed my cycle all of March so I took a test today & im excited & scared at the same time. Congratulations to you love& may God bless you with a healthy pregnancy & delivery. Thanks for sharing ❤
This is so encouraging!! Thank you for being brave to share. I'm currently pregnant with my 6th and I'm 40. I hope to have many more. It's lovely to see that it is possible. I also do wild and free pregnancy and birth.
You give me hope! I'm 43 and have always wanted 10-12 children. I have 8 children (youngest is 2) but my beloved husband passed away suddenly last year. We were going to try in about a month but then he passed away. I regret not trying sooner and I miss him so very much. I decided that I'll still continue having children as we had planned with via donor sperm. I tried one time and it wasn't successful- my husband and I always got pregnant first try, so I became discouraged. Thank you for this wonderful video- and congratulations!!!!!
I'm 45 and naturally conceived with my hubby of 11yrs. Still very early days (between 6-8wks?) I have done some gestational tests to make sure because my period cycle begun playing up about 3yrs ago, from being regular all my life. So missing a period didn't phase me. I was taking tests in the first year from missing my first day of my due period because I knew my body well. After a year of negative results I put it down to perimenopause. My hubby and our children 11,10 & 8 are very excited ❤️so am I...thank you Lord ❤️ Oh and what made me take a test despite the fact I thought I would read negative...I felt like I was going to faint more than once...that prompt me to take a spare pregnancy test I had left over from the last time. I never expected a second line and it wasn't until I was throwing it out that my eye caught the faint line in the result panel😳I was shook❤️now I couldn't be more happier. I still am aware that in this early stage of first trimester I am praying baby develops strong and healthy day by day. I have had 2 miscarriages in my past but I am hopeful no matter what that God has me, no matter what the outcome💯💖🙏🏾
I totally understand your feelings about the midwifes, with one or two kids and sometimes none. They think they have all the answers. With 8 children they should be learning from you! I'm currently 42 and thinking about having more, but this time I will be putting in boundaries in place. Thank you for the video x
Congratulations. Love your approach. And also loving to see all those positive comments. At 43 yo I`m TTC for my 3rd child - had a early spontanious loss at age 41 but I`m still hope to get pregnant and for a 3rd child.
Hello! I’m so happy for you. I’m 26 weeks pregnant with my fourth at 40 years old ( conceived naturally and I have yet to experience any miscarriages) and I would like to try for one more after this. I hate going to the doctor. They always make me feel like an old lady. All the young moms in my neighborhood make me feel old as well. But I am thrilled! You are lovely! Motherhood is such a blessing. ❤
Congratulations! Don’t let the doctors make you feel like that. I heard a statistic recently that said there are more women pregnant in their 40s than ever before, you are certainly not alone 💖
@@largefamilymamaI came back to say that I AM pregnant again at 42 naturally after having my baby at 40! Yay! I’m due in 2 months! Baby #5! Thanks for sharing your encouragement! It helped me dare to try!
Congratulations !!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉Love your attitudes! I don’t need any negativities either. I’m 43 and trying to have a baby with my younger partner ( my daughter is 18 now). My period is very regular thankfully. My mom had my youngest sister at 41. Wish you all luck ladies!!! 🤞💝💝💝
Amazing. I just had my baby boy 11 days ago at age 41. Wud love to try for one last baby when I'm 43 but was worrying I wud be to old. This gives me hope. I'm 42 in December and really wanted to enjoy my newborn son first. It took us 11 cycles and 4 back to back early pregnancy losses to get our rainbow. I also bled with him at 6 and 15 weeks. Due to a cervical erosion. We also got a high risk for downs syndrome when I had the screening test which caused so much worry. But he is healthy. So sorry u had negative comments with ure last pregnancy. I was treated very well by all midwifes and consultant. At my local hospital they have had a 48 and 47 year old have babies and just recently a 54 year old. All pregnant naturally too. I hate it how older womon get so much stick. I wish we didn't have a giant biological clock hanging over our heads. It seems silly that we're most fertile in our late teens early 20s. At least when ure older ure more settled etc. Congratulations and thank you for doing this video. Definitely gonna try for one more now and u have given me so much hope 💓 x
I’m so glad you got the baby you were desperately longing for, how fantastic! I wish you all the best in having another baby in the future. Try not to feel any rush, enjoy life and see what happens ♥️
@@ateyocosolata3683 oh yes AMEN God is so good. We're gonna start trying this May. I'll still be 42 And my son will be 8 months old then so if I do fall they can grow up together. We decided to try a bit sooner just because it took us 11 months last time. Getting excited now. But I'm given it all to the Lord and leaving it in his hands and his timing. I'm only gonna do ovulation tests this time and probably won't bother with all the charting and Temping that all got very stressful last time.
Congrats! Amazing, you're such an inspiration. I'm 44 also & would love another baby. I don't understand why society is obsessed with a females age when pregnant. So happy for you & your family! P.S, you don't look a day over 30! ❤️
Thank you and congratulations to you too. am just eating a fairly healthy diet and breastfeeding. What I do need to do is begin exercising again because I still haven’t done any yet and my baby is almost 4 months old now. When I was pregnant, I took cod liver oil and drank lots of raw milk.
So happy for you 💕. I totally get not wanting any interference, I was 41 when I got pregnant with Isolde, had so much interference, so many patronising comments from the medical staff. If I am blessed again I really don't want to go through all that again so I'm really happy to see how you go, I would love a home birth. My hospital birth was so traumatic, still sad about how you get treated in labour. Lots of love to you and your clan ❤️💕♥️
It’s really bad how you get treated in this country when you get pregnant past the age of 35. Did they try to pressure you into being induced early too? It’s also appalling how they will not support a home birth so you end up with no choice but to go it alone. Now I’ve made the decision to do this on my own, I feel totally at peace and very calm 🥰♥️♥️♥️
@@largefamilymama yep, they did extra scans, put the fear of god into me about Downs but I refused the amniocentesis as I'd lost 2 babies already. Even though I didn't have GD or high BP they still induced me at 40 weeks. As it was 1st lockdown I ended up on my tod for whole thing with no one to advocate. Had v rough sweep which made me cry, had waters broken and put on oxytocin. You are made to feel like it's your fault your body won't go into labour. Poor little Isolde swallowed myconium but I managed a Vb without epidural and only had a 2nd degree tear despite being my 1st birth. Would love a home birth if I'm lucky enough to have a 2nd. You inspire me so much ❤️ xxxx
That sounds truly awful, there’s just no need to be induced, it causes untold amounts of problems. You did amazingly well to not end up having a c-section 💖
This is very uplifting and encouraging, congrats on your pregnancy. My wife was 43 when we got married and we did discuss having a child but wrote it off citing her age. Her ob even said she still had a good chance but the catch is we would have to start trying ASAP. We never did unfortunately, and if we had to do "us" all over again we would probably be one of those "not really trying nor not really preventing it either" type folks. Both of us sort of regretting not trying, right now. But there's no guarantee that we would have and the ob did explain the chances for miscarriage are greater so there's that to factor in as well. Our faith is strong and trust the way things are now is the way God intended for us to be and we have accepted that.
Thank you for such a wonderful video, that truly gives a woman hope no matter what age we are. Believing my 40 is not too late and seeing the future in a positive light would be much much harder without watching your video. Thank you, may all blessings flow into your life.
Massive congratulations lovely, I’m a mother of 11 I’m 35 now and would love another few babies and even considering your way of thinking of trying for a natural pregnancy for as long as I could possibly go. I’m happy for you and your family. Xx
That is absolutely amazing! You have become a legendary ancestor to thousands of people. Mothers like you are rare and precious! And thanks for being kind to my wife.
Congratulations to all of you’s ! I have six kids 4 young adults & 1teen & 1 4 yr old and me & my husband trying for one more !🤗I love 💕 babies ! N Iam in my early 40’s
@@largefamilymama hi, thank you 🙏 I also wanted 10 children but my hubby only wants one more ! Lol when I was a teenager I used say I was going to have 10 children ! I wish all the best to with you Beautiful family !
Congratulations! 🎉 I had my last child at 39 and I can so relate. I got told I had a geriatric pregnancy and it was high risk. I had so many extra appointments. He was born perfectly healthy with no complications. No interference sounds peaceful. I wonder if we can do that here in America. If I do have another, that’s how I would like to do it as well.
Thank you I’m sitting here sobbing 😭 I’m 40 we didn’t plan anymore i gave 17,11 an 3 year old I thought my busy was done. I’m so happy but so nervous thank you I’m not going for a check either I heard enough last time. I’ll think about it as time goes on later in the pregnancy. I just pray the lord helps me through I know he will as he has with you. You set my mind at such ease 🤗💕
So, so lovely to watch and so inspiring to read all the comments. Our bodies are capable of miracles and we are discovering fertility doesn't end at 35 as the current medical profession would have us believe! I always wanted 7 and at 39 I have four (and a few miscarriages). I am hoping for at least one more but was getting so discouraged, thank you for giving me hope I have some years ahead of me, perhaps if I am blessed I could even have two more someday!
@@largefamilymama Updating as I am about to turn 42... and I'm 16 weeks pregnant with number 5 at last! What a miracle, it truly is. Watching this video back, I find it resonates so much more with me in every detail, I too am planning a healthy unassisted pregnancy and perhaps a birth center birth, or at home, but either way, it hardly seems real but don't ever give up!!
Yay congratulations, mama! You were made for this. Im a mom of 5 at 43 with a 20 mo, 3.5 yo, 13, 15, 16. These special souls are choosing beautiful families to be born into. Looking for a follow up video.
My mother had her last child at 43 and she was not even trying. I have not had kids yet and I am 38 and your story is very inspirational. I grew up with very toxic religious ideology and I did not want to pass that down, and it took me years to heal from religious trauma, but now I want to bring life into the world without theology that is so deviant from the natural world in the earth mother very happy to listen to your story
I had my fifth baby last year, age 41. I am now 42 and I do not feel done by a long way. I know deep down I really want 6 or 7. But I also feel the judgement of others is such a burden when it hits close to home. I do not care for the opinions of others and we love our children so much. But I know that even family members would be so off about me having another. I find it strange because the stigma is based on nothing more than received ideas about how “old” a mother should be. I had my first at age 28 and i was baby faced. I got judged back then because people assumed I was “too young”! Refreshing to see a different sort of outlook here. Blessings on you and your family.
It is annoying how judgemental people can be, we all just need to deal with ourselves and leave everyone else to their own business. Good luck with it all xx
Big bump already! Could be twins! Then you will have your 10 babies. Massive congratulations.
Now that would be perfection wouldn't it?!!! 💕💕💕
Warmest congratulations
Congratulations love, GOD bless you, your babe and family. Xxx
I just had my third child at 45. I did fertility with this pregnancy. But my first and second were at 40 and 41, completely natural. All healthy babies! Bless you and your family.

going to be starting over. I’ve had freedom for almost 10 years lol. I had my daughter when I was 20. The relationship was so bad with her dad and I did it on my own.

Excited and nervous lol.
Wow. You sound like me. Blended and first unplanned. Any tips ? Lol.
Amazing. How is your pregnancy going?
I’m pregnant with my first child at 43 years old! Naturally conceived with my young new husband 😀
I am so happy and feel so blessed 🙌🏽🙏🏽
It’s a miracle it’s very difficult to conceive and I’m proud as well.
Congratulations, that’s fantastic news xx
It is more difficult for some than others. People don’t always immediately become pregnant, whatever their age, just because they haven’t yet gone through the menopause.
Congratulations
Did you take any supplements
Congratulations
Congrats with ur first child .....Omg am 40 and I want another baby but I hope I could still have one ..!!
Thank you for sharing! I had my babies at 37, 39, and now pregnant again at 41. All natural by the grace of God. I agree with no inference when you feel well. It’s a pleasure to see motherhood truly beaming from you. 💕
Brilliant news Sandra, I hope you’re feeling well and have a wonderful pregnancy x
Congratulations. I wish to have healthy baby girl in the future by age 40 years old..

Feeling good! Thanks for asking 😊
Amen !
Congratulations same age and pregnant but unfortunately I lead miscarriages at 5 weeks of my pregnancy
You are right not wanting to hear negativity from medical staff. I am 43 years old and 33 weeks natural pregnant I hate going to to check ups because they make me feel like I am a dinosaur, I am even ashamed of being pregnant at my age because of how they have made me feel. Congratulations on your 9 child!
How long did u try to conceive
Congratulations on your pregnancy, that’s fantastic! Don’t feel ashamed about it, you should feel proud. Your body is healthy or you wouldn’t have naturally conceived at that age. Other people’s opinions are irrelevant. So many women your age are absolutely desperate to get pregnant, it’s a truly wonderful thing for you xxx
just ignore what other people think ❤
How long you have been trying for?
I'm so sorry how they made you feel but congratulations I am so happy for you.
I had my 9th and 10th babies (Irish Twins) at 44 and 45 years old. My youngest is 4 months old so I'm in the thick of it. lol They're 11 months apart. Both shocked me. I had 4 babies from 39 years old to 45. I did nothing to conceive and was just super blessed. Congratulations!
That is amazing, how lovely!! Many congratulations xx
Amazing you must be very healthy. Congratulations 😊
WOW, atleast u gave me hope that i still can have chance to get pregnant 🙏
Did you get pregnant two time in 44 45 wow
Had you als miscarriage before, how old your husband..?
Thank you for your information ❤
I love your take on pregnancy I’m 43 and same thing happened for me naturally. Not seeing a doctor until later closer to the birth. I definitely don’t want the negativity and I do feel proud that I’ll be 44 when baby comes. 10 weeks here
Thank you for your video
Oh that's great Penny, I'm so happy for you, many congratulations!!!
You deserve to be seen regularly by a doctor like any other pregnant woman for the safety of your child. Congratulations on your little one!
That's amazing, I didn't realise that not seeing a doctor/midwife was an option. It would be great to not have that interference, especially when you know that you and baby are healthy 🥰

I just had my 5th child at 41. People are definitely judgmental not only of my age but the number of kids I have. When did having a large family become taboo? And why do people find “16 & pregnant” shows entertaining but look down on older mothers. I was a young mom and an older mom - pros and cons to each but one thing is constant, my love for my children. Congrats to all moms, younger, older and in between !
Im about to have my 5th child as well! At 42, but I conceived at 41. People are so judgmental.
I’m 44 years old and 38.5 weeks pregnant. Totally unplanned. 🤰🏻
Congrats
Omg that’s amazing and gives me hope. Congratulations 🎉
Can I ask about your period it was regular or no before conceive did you had any sign of premenopausal before conceive
Yes. Very regular periods. I thought I was in perimenopause. Hot flashes were intense. Lol nope! Pregnant!
Wow congratulations can I know about your period is it changed after 40! Did you skip some of them or no

@@tessapatricia2800 I'm sorry to hear that :(
I honestly am so thrilled to see your attitude about not rushing to the midwife/doctor. I think people forget the fact women have been birthing babies for thousands of years without those appointments just fine.
I was the same way. I went to the doctor “as needed”. I got a lot of negativity and it was irritating. My baby was born just fine💕
Yes yes yes, someone who understands! 💖
I was a maternity nurse for 15 yrs and the issue with delaying maternity care is that pregnancy can elicit lethal hypertension (pre-eclampsia/eclampsia) and gestational diabetes, and you'll more often than not, feel perfectly fine. I can't tell you how many women I've treated who were "non-compliant" who ended up in the ICU or worse, with stillborn babies. If it worked out for you, than you're very lucky, but this isn't a wise choice for most women.
I'm 43 and 13 weeks , have a nine year old. I recently got married and needed a child with my husband. I'm happy for my child, proud mama who wants to talk that would be their business. Congratulations hon. Children are blessings.
Congratulations to you too x
That's wonderful how long did it take you? I'm TTC for a few years
Hi I'm thrilled that my husband and I are finally pregnant naturally and I'm 43! We had a miscarriage and a failed IVF. I already had given up until my whole like changed. Today I am 11 weeks and while I didn't have any negative opinions from my regular OB, I am also seeing a OB specialist who is negative and it's making me feel ashamed of my age regardless if chromosome test came out normal, they still find a way to bring me down and talks about my "high risks". Thank you for your video you give me hope and positivity🙏💗
Congratulations xx
Rebuke them in JESUS name DONT accept that! Don’t let the em speak negatively into your life. You and your baby will be normal and healthy in JESUS name. Praying for my baby
Just this morning I took 3 tests...and unexpectedly they were positive. I am 42. I have been on hormone replacement therapy to stop early menopause. I am shocked. Absolutely shocked. I married my soul mate over 2 years ago and thought we missed our chance. I'm overwhelmed with worry, joy, ...there aren't proper words. So glad I'm seeing your video. It is helping calm the shock.
I'm 44 tomorrow and I just found out yesterday I'm pregnant. God willing this will be baby number 8. I'm nervous as I had a heart attack in Feb of this year and I have two stents in and have been on heart meds. I've stopped them and just waiting on cardiology calling me. Thank you for your videos and hope all is well with you and baby ♥️
Congratulations on your pregnancy. I hope all goes well, it sounds like you’ve been through a lot!! Xx
@@largefamilymama so glad I found your channel I am loving all you do. It's been quite an eventful year but thank God all going well. I'm homeschooling our six younger kids as our eldest is still at school doing a levels. I still have had no call from cardiology and to be honest part of me is like I will just get through this. I always hated the hospital part of pregnancy it always caused me alot of stress. Hope all is well with you all. Thank you ❤️

Congratulations!! It is outrageous the way women are treated by the medical establishment for something that is natural and wonderful and perhaps a sign of good health. I hope the pregnancy is progressing nicely for you.

I'm 47 and pregnant --- naturally as well. I actually I'm surprised because I thought I was starting menopause!! 😮 Imagine my surprise to see that little peanut on the ultrasound. ❤
That’s so fascinating! I had exactly the same pregnancy experiences from one of the comments, I had my first born at 40 and had my second born at 41 and I will have my third when I turn 43 on December because I am pregnant again this month, never tried to get pregnant but I kept getting pregnant 😅
I met the right one, the love of my life on my late age, that’s why.
How cool is that?! Love it ♥️
So cool
Thank you so much for sharing your story. Definitely encouraging and inspirational. I totally get it when you say about not wanting the negativity of the doctors!! There must be a change in how doctors treat older women wishing to be mothers
You are so welcome!
Have been told since I am over 35 I am "older" and should be careful... pregnant with #7 and so excited to meet this little one.... congratulations on another little Blessing from God! My grandma had her last at 51. Amish women we grew up near had children in their 50s:) God knows what we can handle.. :) praying you have a safe pregnancy
I believe if you can get pregnant naturally then your body is capable of dealing with pregnancy and birth. We just have to trust our bodies 💖
Just like you, I am 44 yrs young & expecting a baby due in June this summer. We have 5 children, & our youngest one will be 5 years in the month of June too. We were very conscientious about trying to conceive -- from cycle monitoring to lifestyle changes that aligned to self care. Not to mention we wanted to add 1 more to our blended unit. Our 1st four children are very older in age -- 2 are now young single adults & 2 are in high school close to finishing (jr & sr). So it only made practical sense that our youngest has a buddy to grow up with as part ofis upbringing.
In the past, I am what you would call "Fertile Myrtle" so when my mind is made up to try and have a kid, it happens within the 1st month, but this time around, it took a lil longer than expected -- close to a year. In all honesty, we are so thankful for this baby and doing all we can to stay positive & fit for our physiological well being. So far, it's been a wild first & 2nd trimester of turns but all worth the suffering. Now entering my lasy trimester so I am very conscious of staying active & productive to prepare for our shining new baby. God be with me always.
Congratulations Julia! That’s such wonderful news, I wish you all the best xx
U r so blessed
My doctors told me it cannot happen at my age 43 I don’t have any issues beside low AMH due to age. Any advice?

Did you take any supplements or can you tell us what you did to conceive 😊
I just got back from my first appointment and found out I'm pregnant with twins! Babies #7 & #8 will come right in time for my 40th birthday! I conceived completely naturally. I am so excited!
However, I am also a bit "let down" I was expecting an encouraging and positive visit. The midwife was negative, made me feel "old", and went on about how I'm high risk for this and high risk for that and gave me a judge-y look when I mentioned that I'm a carrier for a genetic disorder. She then insisted that because I'm "old" and having twins I need to immediately start taking low dose aspirin everyday.
I have LOW blood pressure and have struggled with my blood pressure getting too low with every pregnancy. I also have thin blood. So why should I take a medicine to lower my blood pressure and thin my blood more? I was so confident before the appointment and now I feel overwhelmed and fearful.
I'm glad I found this video to see some positivity with women my age having Babies with no fear! Just joy! 😊
Congratulations, sorry you've had this negativity xx
This is very encouraging. I am 41 years old and will be 42 in a few months. I desire to get pregnant again but I have been a little nervous about trying again. I had my first miscarriage at 34 and gave birth to my daughter at 35. I had a second miscarriage in 2020 and haven't tried again since. I am focusing on my health as far as diet and exercise with plans of trying again sometime this year. Thanks for sharing your story!
I'm 43 and just found out 3 days ago I'm pregnant. I just took the test for fun because I spotted as lil for this month. And I'm like woah.. seriously. I already have five boys. 🥰🤰🏿. So I guess I need to get ready
Congrats India 😁
Thank you sooo much for sharing. Especially your attitude towards doctors. Any real healing I have ever experienced has never come from going to a "normal" doctor, so I hardly ever go there. I am 44 now, got surprise pregnant, unfortunately miscarried very early on and went to a gynecologist just to be sure. And immediately I get the "At your age" thing... I am not stupid, I know our bodies change and the probability of conception might change with age. But why focus on negativity and - as you say - be patronizing and condemning just because a woman is over 40?!
I love how relaxed you are…I need that energy right now. I’m 41 and we are just starting.
I can help you out my love
The man that helped me can also help you out my love .he helped me wen all hope was lost after been TTC for 9 years with 4 misscarriage .I almost gave up but he gave me hope now am a mom of twins baby girls he is so powerful

Ho how sweet ! Congratulations 🎈🎉! Sending positive vibes and lots of strength to be poured to you by God who has all the power !
Same here 44 and pregnant 🤰 never expected this … I have a 16yr old son but boom 💥 who knew 44 and pregnant naturally
Congratulations! How’ve you been feeling? Were your friends and family as shocked as you?
@@largefamilymama I’m
Scared to bits due to my age , I was told I couldn’t have more kids naturally … haven’t told many other than my husband … but I’m not a spring chicken anymore like when I had my son at 28 so I’m a little scared 6weeks 4 days
I’m also kinda scared I’ll be judged since my husband and I will be older parents now … a baby is a blessing but I’m scared how others reactions will be fearing judgement
Don’t be scared, it will be okay xx
If you stay happy and positive it will have an affect on those around you, if you seem happy about it then they’ll be more likely to feel happy too. This is a wonderful thing, almost a miracle XX
Loved hearing your story, thank you for sharing! I can relate to so much of what you have experienced. I am 46 years old and 22 weeks pregnant with my 6th child! Another miracle yes! All natural conceptions and births. I was married at 36 so I'm playing catch up! I had two miscarriages initially but then had my progesterone levels monitored with my next pregnancy, they did not rise as they should so I supplemented with natural progesterone from Mexican yam and did the same with all my subsequent pregnancies into the second trimester. All babies were born naturally, healthy and well. I can relate to the medical professionals interference and sometimes even negative comments. I find it extraordinary that people should think they have a right to judge our choice and right to have a large family but not those who choose to have a small one! Bizarre double standards! Anyhow you are an inspiration to me, of tranquility and generosity and I wish you all the best with your beautiful family. God bless.
Do you have a link to where you bought the Mexican yam?
Congratulations and thank you for your lovely comment x
@@largefamilymama Thank you! 🥰 BTW, baby no. 6 has be born safe and well, 7 weeks old now, another natural birth fortunately with no complications, she is a bonny one! 😍
Fantastic 😁♥️
Thank you. Between my husband and myself we have 9 children, five are mine. I am 43 and my husband is 47. We just found out we are 7 weeks pregnant. Trying not to get too excited as we lost one two years ago.
All the best to you!!! May God cover your pregnancy to bring home your beautiful healthy baby 🥰🥰🥰🙏🙏🙏
I'm 40 and just had a miscarriage. Hoping to try again. Everything on the internet is so discouraging, judgemental and terrifying. Thank you and your commenters for these uplifting stories. Congrats! :)
I have about 5 friends who hD natural pregnancies and births over 41/42. I live in a capital city and know far more than had them under 40. It’s just the norm for me tbh to see if work out
40 is YOUNG! popular opinion is fortunately not the truth :). I wish you a healthy baby in your future! ❤️
@@hillaryh.5197 thank you, I really needed to hear that today ❤️
@@Mang-ej5ul My mom and grandma suffered miscarriages all throughout their younger years, only reaching success conceiving and carrying to full term in their older years. You will have a baby! You’re welcome ❤️
Omg 40 is still so young:) ❤ don’t loose hope
You really give me hope with this vid☺️ I’ll be 44 this week and we miscarried this summer. We were Really saddened but haven’t given up hope. Now Taking a natural fertility cleanse to improve our chances🙏🏾🙏🏾
I’m so sorry to hear about your miscarriage and wish you lots of luck for the future.
There is nothing to dislike if you are pregnant at this age. You are blessed and you are giving hope and strength to other women. Congratulations!
That is very kind of you to say, thank you 😁
OH MY GOODNESS HAVEN'T CLICKED SO FAST IN ALL MY LIFE!! Super excited for you all. Huge congratulations xxxx
Yay! Thank you! 💕💕💕
My wife was able to conceive naturally, although it took a few years but we managed to have luck on our side. I'm 28 and she's 45 now, had our 2 year old daughter when she was 43; honestly she's just happy to be a mother, she thought that door closed years ago.
That’s fantastic!! I’m so glad it worked out for you both, it’s lovely to hear some good news 😁
@@largefamilymama I get naysayers judging me, since society thinks younger men and older women in relationships is weird; but I couldn't care less, I love my family.
@@blairexodus8005 im 39 and my wife is 44.. we have been trying for a few years now hoping that we are blessed one day.. these messages give hope as 44 isnt an age with much of chances
@@TheViperDawg My wife had a huge confidence boost from her pregnancy, she doesn't even hide her gray hair anymore and works out more often, prior to that she had depression issues.
I like this story I am 40 and my bf is 28 and I know he would like a child and I am open to it as well it would be my first I’ve only ever wanted one though and was kind of ok with none. It’s more about meeting the right person for me and that can take time for some of us lol
I'm 41, will be 42 next month. I just found out I am pregnant again, naturally, after a MMC last year with my 1st baby at 40. I'm extremely hopeful that I will carry my rainbow baby full term, happy and healthy. Thank you so much for sharing this video and giving such a positive perspective for us moms and mothers-to-be in our 40's and any woman after 35, who medical professionals consider, of advanced maternal age❤
Congratulations!! I wish you all the best 💖
@@largefamilymama Thank you so much ❤
Hi how's your pregnancy going? Hope all is well
Yeah they have a nerve to call it geriatric. SMH we doing it better than some of these 20 year olds. Don’t know what the heck they talking about 😤
@@Ebonyeyez7 So sorry that I'm just seeing and replying to this message. My pregnancy went we, my daughter will be 1 on January 4th ❤️
My husband of 20 years and I have been thinking about getting pregnant for the first time. I just turned 44!!! I am totally not afraid. It either happens, or not. We’re a little concerned because a few of the boys in his and my family have had some learning disabilities, and autism. I am so okay with my kid being different from other kids. If that’s the case. I was thinking I was too old until I saw this video and all the comments. Congratulations!!! Who cares about what other people think. If you’re confident, and you’ve already raised a family for most of your adult life, who would know better about having a baby?! It’s just a different age. Go to a doctor only if you feel you need to. My doctor told me last year to go ahead and try. 😅
I never had money or time before. Right now I’m in the perfect place in life to have a baby. If not, we’ll just foster. Keep us posted on your baby bump.
Keep me updated, I’d love to know if you get pregnant xx
How'd it go? Idk how I got here. Maybe from all of the negativity that has been coming from men online about women of a certain age group. I hope you had a successful pregnancy. I wish you and your husband lots of luck!!
My brothers god mother had her tubes tied and surprise she found out she’s pregnant at 44. God is so good. She’ll be 45 when she gives birth. She’s super happy.
It’s lucky she’s happy about it!! What a fantastic surprise 😁
I love your content! Me at 38 trying to start a family, we don’t need any negativity! You’re looking and doing great!
Thank you and good luck xx
I have 4 birth kids and 4 step kids that I’ve raised. Now raising a 2 year old granddaughter. Just found out I’m 45 with iud and pregnant!!! Not expected but definitely excited!! Thanks for this video! I happened on it and it was exactly the peace I needed!
Exciting times, congratulations 💖
Wow congratulations
I absolutely love this! ❤️ You are an inspiration 😍 I'm 43 and me and my partner would love a baby together, we both have children from previous relationships. My mum had me at 41 and concieved first try so I'm keeping my fingers crossed 🤞🤞 thank you for this video, it makes us 40 something ladies feel like humans not dinosaurs! Xxx
Thank you! It sounds like you have a good chance, good luck 🤞🏻🍀
Did you conceive? ❤
This gives me hope. My husband and I are praying for a baby. I am 42. 🙏
You are amazing! I’m 44 just had a miscarriage on my first pregnancy but I am hoping to get pregnant again in 3 months.. I’m inspired by your story..
I hope so too!
Hello there, this is a wonderful video I've ever watched. You just give me great inspiration that I could still get pregnant. I'm 43 years old now and about to reach my 44 by July this year. I stop going to the doctor for all the response I'm getting is negative. For now me and my husband just praying and doing all the necessary things to do so that we can conceived very soon. Congratulations to your upcoming baby angel. take lots of care and keep safe. definitely will follow your channel. My name is Arceli from Washington State U.S.A. God bless your entire family
Hi Arceli, I really wish you and your husband all the best with your plans 🤞🏻💖
HUGS TO YOU from ITALY!💓💓💓I'm pregnant at 44 too, first baby after my whole life of suffering infertility with miscarriage and other issues....I don't know how to live it with serenity and the right happiness with the right mood to remeber these moments with a big smile, I feel terrified for my baby because I know it's a miracle and the very last occasion but I WANT TO BE HAPPY BECAUSE I DESERVE IT AFTER ALL OF THESE YEARS! I'm 18 weeks pregnant , are you girls doing something like exercises or other things to live it better? I use to do mindfulness and it helps but I can't do it all day long😆😆
Congratulations! I just try to think of as many positive things and not dwell on the negatives xx
This video has touched my heart. It was heartwarming and inspirational letting me know not to give up. I am 47 years old and I desire to have a baby. I have three children ages 24, 23 and 15. What a joy it would be for God to allow me to conceive my fourth child.
That would be great 😁
I honestly know of a woman who was 53.
Congratulations! You are glowing! I’ll be 45 in three weeks and have a 4 year old daughter. I’ve been thinking about having another lately, but wasn’t sure if I should. Sometimes I think I might not have enough energy for another☺️, but if you can be a mother of eight, you’ve given me more confidence that I can have another. ❤️
I wish i can share mine. I am 44, been late for almost a week. Hopefully i am pregnant for the first time. Will come back and share my story when I am positive. Love your story and everyone in the comments. Wishing everyone a successful pregnancy
Did you find out :)
I became pregnant as a surprise at 43. Now I’m 50 with a 7 year old. I also have 5 adult children so there is a big age gap.
How lovely! 😄
Was it hard to adapt to having a baby at age 43?
@@rebekahpowers1595 it was a big surprise but when she arrived we were happy to have her and she fit right in. I do feel I’m a little less active than I was with my other children but I also enjoy all the stages of her development more because I remember how fast kids change and I want to hold those moments close.
@@teresanorris4769 awww that’s beautiful,I’m so happy for you and you’re family and thanks for answering my question,I appreciate it!
What fab news 🥰 I had my last one at 42 I really didn’t think of being an older mum ,so exciting ! X
Yes exactly! I don't feel any different but people don't understand until they're in the same situation xx
Awwr so happy for you ! God bless you and your family !
I am 40 years now and looking forward to be pregnant 🤰 ho God help me get pregnant as soon as possible! Thank you Jesus
I had a miscarriage after 2 healthy kids in my 30s at 38. We tried for well over a year and nothing. I am now 2 months into being 40 and I just found out I'm pregnant. I am terrified of another miscarriage. Thank you. I feel allot better after seeing this. You are beautiful. Congratulations!
That’s fantastic news! This is what you’ve wanted for so long, allow yourself to feel pleased at conceiving after trying for years.
Miscarriages are most unpleasant, I have had many and would tell myself they happened for a good reason. If I hadn’t been brave enough to carry on trying for more babies after miscarriages then I wouldn’t have all the children that I’m lucky enough to have. It is nerve wracking for the first few months of pregnancy, I truly hope things work out for you. It is definitely possible. Do your best to stay stress free and be optimistic. Worrying won’t make anything better xxx
You are a wonderful lady. Giving me a lot of confidence. I am 38 , newly married and want to get pregnant soon.
Congratulations on your marriage! Good luck with your future plans x
All the very best girl
I’m unexpectedly expecting at 44. We struggled to have our first three and while we always wanted 4, when we were unable to conceive after our last when I was 39, we figured we were done for good and gave everything away. Now we are going to have a newborn in August, along with a 10.5 year old, 9 year old and 6.5 year old.
Oh so happy for you and congratulations! I'm turning 44 soon and am hoping to have #3 or maybe even #4!
Wow! I guess I just assumed we HAD to seek out medical treatment when pregnant. I think I still would have with my son because I was pretty scared. But after eight kids you probably feel like you’ve got it in the bag and I probably would do it without doctors also. You look SO GOOD for 44! I had my son when I was 35 (considered geriatric pregnancy) and thankfully my OB said she had her first at 40. I really wanted multiple kids because my family was 4 kids when I grew up. So was my husband’s. And sometimes my son looks so lonely-he’s really drawn to other kids. We’ve been trying for a few years. I’ve had 4 miscarriages and a missed miscarriage at 11 weeks. The hardest thing I had been through. You’re giving me hope. Thank you so much for posting this! You look great!
It is very tough having miscarriages, I’ve had quite a few myself. I hope you do get to have more babies as you wish xx
Congrats and thank you for sharing your story. I’m 45 and I have hope!
Yes you do! The best of wishes to you x
Your calming spirit seriously needs to be bottled up and sold... or given away to those who truly need it. You've inspired myself and so many others. All the best with your new bundle of joy :)
That’s so kind of you, thank you 💖
Congratulations! Wishing you a healthy happy pregnancy! Nothing wrong with large families! I'm the oldest of 12, and Mom had her 12th when she was 42! My husband and I have 6 children. First two girls when I was 18 and 19, then in the next 14 years I had 3 miscarriages and after that we were blessed with 2 more girls and 2 boys! I had my last when I was 40.
Oh wow! That’s lovely to hear. Thank you 💕💕💕
I am currently 41, 42 in December, and my husband and I are trying for our second. This gives me so much hope. I've had 2 chemicals in the last 6 months and am praying for my rainbow baby. I want so badly to do it naturally. I'm on an array of supplements and have given myself until the end of the year and then in going to start getting some testing done to have a more targeted regimen.
Try to add in a bit of exercise if you haven’t done so already. I always seemed to get pregnant when I had an exercise routine. Good luck x
@@largefamilymama thank you so much. I have gotten out of working out because I work and have a toddler, but I really want to get back into it.
I’m 40 pregnant with my first baby, it was conceived naturally. I feel fine and healthy, my medical studies have come out great, but every time I go to the doctor they make me feel guilty for waiting until now to have a baby. It’s hard not to feel discouraged after hearing all the risks. I’m considering skipping my appointments just because every time I come back from the doctor I feel worried and guilty even if everything seems going well. I wish you the best!
Don’t let them make you feel that way. They tried to make me feel the same way and so did friends and family. I just had a baby at 40 and I conceived him with ease and he is beautiful and healthy and I am healthy. Be proud of yourself and your body!
Don’t feel bad, it’s normal to have a baby at 40. Not everybody has met the right partner earlier in life or they have a million and one other reasons why they left having a baby until 40. It’s nobody else’s business. How are you feeling now?
Congratulations. I’ll be 40 this month on the 26th. Born in 1983& have a 21 yrs old son& 19 year old daughter & found out today im also with child. I missed my cycle all of March so I took a test today & im excited & scared at the same time. Congratulations to you love& may God bless you with a healthy pregnancy & delivery. Thanks for sharing ❤
Good luck with everything xx
This is so encouraging!! Thank you for being brave to share. I'm currently pregnant with my 6th and I'm 40. I hope to have many more. It's lovely to see that it is possible. I also do wild and free pregnancy and birth.
It’s lovely to hear from another mama of many that still wants more babies 😊💖
You’re so blessed! Thanks for sharing this online.

Hi I am 43 and just started trying thank you for the positive energy
Good luck 🤞🏻🍀
You give me hope! I'm 43 and have always wanted 10-12 children. I have 8 children (youngest is 2) but my beloved husband passed away suddenly last year. We were going to try in about a month but then he passed away. I regret not trying sooner and I miss him so very much. I decided that I'll still continue having children as we had planned with via donor sperm. I tried one time and it wasn't successful- my husband and I always got pregnant first try, so I became discouraged. Thank you for this wonderful video- and congratulations!!!!!
Super sweet. I’m 43 pregnant with #5 loving it and we weren’t even trying
Congratulations 💖
I’m 43 and TTC #5. Positive OPK today, gonna go attack my hubby!! 😂😂😂❤❤❤
I'm 45 and naturally conceived with my hubby of 11yrs. Still very early days (between 6-8wks?) I have done some gestational tests to make sure because my period cycle begun playing up about 3yrs ago, from being regular all my life. So missing a period didn't phase me. I was taking tests in the first year from missing my first day of my due period because I knew my body well. After a year of negative results I put it down to perimenopause. My hubby and our children 11,10 & 8 are very excited ❤️so am I...thank you Lord ❤️
Oh and what made me take a test despite the fact I thought I would read negative...I felt like I was going to faint more than once...that prompt me to take a spare pregnancy test I had left over from the last time. I never expected a second line and it wasn't until I was throwing it out that my eye caught the faint line in the result panel😳I was shook❤️now I couldn't be more happier. I still am aware that in this early stage of first trimester I am praying baby develops strong and healthy day by day. I have had 2 miscarriages in my past but I am hopeful no matter what that God has me, no matter what the outcome💯💖🙏🏾
Good luck 💖
I totally understand your feelings about the midwifes, with one or two kids and sometimes none. They think they have all the answers. With 8 children they should be learning from you! I'm currently 42 and thinking about having more, but this time I will be putting in boundaries in place. Thank you for the video x
You're welcome!
Congratulations. Love your approach. And also loving to see all those positive comments. At 43 yo I`m TTC for my 3rd child - had a early spontanious loss at age 41 but I`m still hope to get pregnant and for a 3rd child.
I wish you all the very best x
Hello! I’m so happy for you.
I’m 26 weeks pregnant with my fourth at 40 years old ( conceived naturally and I have yet to experience any miscarriages) and I would like to try for one more after this. I hate going to the doctor. They always make me feel like an old lady. All the young moms in my neighborhood make me feel old as well.
But I am thrilled!
You are lovely! Motherhood is such a blessing. ❤
Congratulations! Don’t let the doctors make you feel like that. I heard a statistic recently that said there are more women pregnant in their 40s than ever before, you are certainly not alone 💖
@@largefamilymamaI came back to say that I AM pregnant again at 42 naturally after having my baby at 40! Yay! I’m due in 2 months! Baby #5! Thanks for sharing your encouragement! It helped me dare to try!
Congratulations !!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉Love your attitudes! I don’t need any negativities either. I’m 43 and trying to have a baby with my younger partner ( my daughter is 18 now). My period is very regular thankfully. My mom had my youngest sister at 41. Wish you all luck ladies!!! 🤞💝💝💝
Thank you! You too!
Amazing. I just had my baby boy 11 days ago at age 41. Wud love to try for one last baby when I'm 43 but was worrying I wud be to old. This gives me hope. I'm 42 in December and really wanted to enjoy my newborn son first.
It took us 11 cycles and 4 back to back early pregnancy losses to get our rainbow.
I also bled with him at 6 and 15 weeks. Due to a cervical erosion. We also got a high risk for downs syndrome when I had the screening test which caused so much worry. But he is healthy.
So sorry u had negative comments with ure last pregnancy. I was treated very well by all midwifes and consultant.
At my local hospital they have had a 48 and 47 year old have babies and just recently a 54 year old. All pregnant naturally too.
I hate it how older womon get so much stick. I wish we didn't have a giant biological clock hanging over our heads. It seems silly that we're most fertile in our late teens early 20s. At least when ure older ure more settled etc.
Congratulations and thank you for doing this video. Definitely gonna try for one more now and u have given me so much hope 💓 x
I’m so glad you got the baby you were desperately longing for, how fantastic! I wish you all the best in having another baby in the future. Try not to feel any rush, enjoy life and see what happens ♥️

Thank you so much. 💓
God fulfill the desires of our heart super mom!
@@ateyocosolata3683 oh yes AMEN God is so good. We're gonna start trying this May. I'll still be 42 And my son will be 8 months old then so if I do fall they can grow up together. We decided to try a bit sooner just because it took us 11 months last time. Getting excited now. But I'm given it all to the Lord and leaving it in his hands and his timing. I'm only gonna do ovulation tests this time and probably won't bother with all the charting and Temping that all got very stressful last time.
Congrats! Amazing, you're such an inspiration. I'm 44 also & would love another baby. I don't understand why society is obsessed with a females age when pregnant. So happy for you & your family! P.S, you don't look a day over 30! ❤️
Good luck and thank you for your flattering compliment 😊
Congratulations! I’m 43 and pregnant too. What are you doing to keep the baby and you healthy?
Thank you and congratulations to you too. am just eating a fairly healthy diet and breastfeeding. What I do need to do is begin exercising again because I still haven’t done any yet and my baby is almost 4 months old now. When I was pregnant, I took cod liver oil and drank lots of raw milk.

This video is sooooo refreshing and uplifting.I enjoyed watching every single bit of it. THANK YOU!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it 😊💖
So happy for you 💕. I totally get not wanting any interference, I was 41 when I got pregnant with Isolde, had so much interference, so many patronising comments from the medical staff. If I am blessed again I really don't want to go through all that again so I'm really happy to see how you go, I would love a home birth. My hospital birth was so traumatic, still sad about how you get treated in labour. Lots of love to you and your clan ❤️💕♥️
It’s really bad how you get treated in this country when you get pregnant past the age of 35. Did they try to pressure you into being induced early too? It’s also appalling how they will not support a home birth so you end up with no choice but to go it alone. Now I’ve made the decision to do this on my own, I feel totally at peace and very calm 🥰♥️♥️♥️
@@largefamilymama yep, they did extra scans, put the fear of god into me about Downs but I refused the amniocentesis as I'd lost 2 babies already. Even though I didn't have GD or high BP they still induced me at 40 weeks. As it was 1st lockdown I ended up on my tod for whole thing with no one to advocate. Had v rough sweep which made me cry, had waters broken and put on oxytocin. You are made to feel like it's your fault your body won't go into labour. Poor little Isolde swallowed myconium but I managed a Vb without epidural and only had a 2nd degree tear despite being my 1st birth. Would love a home birth if I'm lucky enough to have a 2nd. You inspire me so much ❤️ xxxx
That sounds truly awful, there’s just no need to be induced, it causes untold amounts of problems. You did amazingly well to not end up having a c-section 💖
This is very uplifting and encouraging, congrats on your pregnancy. My wife was 43 when we got married and we did discuss having a child but wrote it off citing her age. Her ob even said she still had a good chance but the catch is we would have to start trying ASAP. We never did unfortunately, and if we had to do "us" all over again we would probably be one of those "not really trying nor not really preventing it either" type folks. Both of us sort of regretting not trying, right now. But there's no guarantee that we would have and the ob did explain the chances for miscarriage are greater so there's that to factor in as well. Our faith is strong and trust the way things are now is the way God intended for us to be and we have accepted that.
We just have to make the best of the lives we have, onwards and upwards!
Thank you for such a wonderful video, that truly gives a woman hope no matter what age we are. Believing my 40 is not too late and seeing the future in a positive light would be much much harder without watching your video. Thank you, may all blessings flow into your life.
You are so welcome!

Congratulations! 🎉 I had my last child at 39 and I can so relate. I got told I had a geriatric pregnancy and it was high risk. I had so many extra appointments. He was born perfectly healthy with no complications. No interference sounds peaceful. I wonder if we can do that here in America. If I do have another, that’s how I would like to do it as well.
Congratulations to you too 💞

@@largefamilymama Thank you so much ♥️
So, so lovely to watch and so inspiring to read all the comments. Our bodies are capable of miracles and we are discovering fertility doesn't end at 35 as the current medical profession would have us believe! I always wanted 7 and at 39 I have four (and a few miscarriages). I am hoping for at least one more but was getting so discouraged, thank you for giving me hope I have some years ahead of me, perhaps if I am blessed I could even have two more someday!
You have plenty of time, I wish you the very best of luck xx

My mother had her last child at 43 and she was not even trying. I have not had kids yet and I am 38 and your story is very inspirational. I grew up with very toxic religious ideology and I did not want to pass that down, and it took me years to heal from religious trauma, but now I want to bring life into the world without theology that is so deviant from the natural world in the earth mother very happy to listen to your story
I can totally understand you need a chance to heal from that kind of trauma, been through similar myself.
I had my fifth baby last year, age 41. I am now 42 and I do not feel done by a long way. I know deep down I really want 6 or 7. But I also feel the judgement of others is such a burden when it hits close to home.
I do not care for the opinions of others and we love our children so much. But I know that even family members would be so off about me having another. I find it strange because the stigma is based on nothing more than received ideas about how “old” a mother should be.
I had my first at age 28 and i was baby faced. I got judged back then because people assumed I was “too young”!
Refreshing to see a different sort of outlook here. Blessings on you and your family.
It is annoying how judgemental people can be, we all just need to deal with ourselves and leave everyone else to their own business. Good luck with it all xx
I'm so glad to hear someone who doesn't care to see a doctor/midwife.
Thank you
