First time mothers over 40 are one of the fastest growing demographic in the uk and have out numbered teen mothers for the first time. I work with loads of woman who had babies over 40 and some yes did use IVF but also some didn’t and had no issue.

Hi Kel! Everywhere I look online seems over 40 is a shock to try to have a baby!

I have had comments too on my age!

Can’t get pregnant after 4 previous pregnancy’s

So I’ve been trying to conceive for about a year now and with no luck every month I’m having sex on every day that I’m not having a period also testing ovulation I am ovulating just can’t get pregnant and don’t know why I’ve had two previous births with the healthy children to previous pregnancies before that were I had abortions in pregnancy. I have gotten pregnant within the first month of trying but now that I’m actually trying before was just like accidents I guess no I can’t seem to get pregnant even taking fertility vitamins no idea why or what Is going on 😩 my children were from previous relationships but now I am married and my husband wants a baby of his own. I just can’t seem to get pregnant and it’s breaking both of our hearts

Postive or not yet?

I’ve recently been getting a dull achy feeling in my stomach past 2 days and today I’ve felt so sick, I also vape and I’ve been feeling sick with my vape and I never do, I done tests today my period isn’t due for about 5-6 days anyway but I done a clear blue digital it said not pregnant but I opened the test and it looks like this does this look postive or no
