How To Get Pregnant Fast - #10 Getting Pregnant Over 35

This is the 10th video in my YouTube series How to Get Pregnant Fast. This video is about getting pregnant over the age of 35, or even 40.

This video will give you the key facts but for more details check out the book I have written to accompany this series:
How To Get Pregnant Fast by Dr Emma Gray
There is a lot written (and said) about the dramatic decline in fertility after the age of 35, however, a lot of this is overstated and based on outdated and irrelevant data.
I have had all 4 of my children over the age of 35, the last at 44 and this is not as unusual as you might think. I am going to share with you some really interesting statistics about your actual chances of conceiving a child over 35 years of age and explain why you don’t need to panic about some of the things you will be told if you are trying to get pregnant past your mid 30s.
The reality is that in the 1920s it was normal for women to have children into their 40s and that it is only the baby boomers who have skewed what is considered ‘normal’ with regards to having a baby.
I hope this is helpful, thank you for watching and good luck with your fertility journey xx

This has given me a lot of hope. We just had a miscarriage, and decided to start trying again. Thank you for this!

[TheGoodylady]

This is encouraging, I’m turning 36 this month and I am committed to changing my lifestyle to prep for pregnancy in the next couple of years. I’m considering egg freezing if the romantic aspect of my motherhood journey doesn’t line up ... ha ! The statistics were encouraging.

[plussomething]

Well, you just gave me hope! Even if everyone says I can't because I am too old. <3

[Bonbonsito]

I can’t thank you enough. That’s all I can say.

I remember my neighbor Ruthy. Her mom had 9 children. We all went to a christian church and they all had large families of at least 4 children. The moms were popping out babies in their early 40's. I think if your health also has alot to do with it.
