Definitely possible but higher risk for twins and downs syndrome so talk with your dr

Hi there! Have you been trying to get pregnant? Or are you asking just to see the odds?
If everything is 100% normal with trying you wouldn’t go longer than 6 months without seeing a specialist. If some things like, cycle or ability to have successful sex, you would go immediately and not waste your time.
After the age of 37 the fertility drastically decreases. But it’s not impossible by any means. It just has everything to do with your body and health as well as your partner. Some may need assistance and some may need none.
My MIL had my husband at 37 and his sister at 42
Yep, been there done that. Totally fine and no problem with pregnancies. All 3 healthy babies born after advanced maternal age. But I will tell you that they put you through the ringer with extra testing. Plus side, sometimes insurance will pay for extra testing that includes finding out the sex of the baby at 10 weeks!
I had my first at 36 and second at 38 the third at almost 44
First at 32, second at 33 third at 46 (nothing ‘special’ was done for the last one)
My aunt was with her husband for 20 years and was told numerous times she couldn’t get pregnant so she didn’t worry about birth control or anything like that and after about 25 years of being married she found out she was pregnant at 42

My mother was 41 when she had my brother in 1995. I saw go for it. Have fun trying. If its meant to be it will be.
My mom had my 9yr old sister at 44yrs old. She lost a baby 6 months prior, but my sister is a very healthy little girl.
My mom had my baby brother at 46-47. There are higher risks with conceiving at an older age, but that doesn’t make it impossible!
