We have one daughter who is now almost seven years old. My husband and I were very happy with just having one child, but are now really feeling that we want one more baby. The problem is that he is 42 and I am almost 40 and I am not sure if i should be planning a pregnancy at this stage. What age did you have your kids? Any mums out there who got pregnant in their 40s?

Hey! I am in my late 30's and me and my husband are planning to have a baby. As long as you haven't run out of eggs, it's not too late! You definitely need to know that there are both plus and minuses to it, minuses of course is due to fertility issues and risk of complications that come along with ageing. But there are lot of positives too, in 40's you generally are more financially stable, more experienced and a more patient person. Also, with a grownup daughter, you will be able to focus more on your second child's upbringing. So don't worry at all, consult a doctor and just plan accordingly.
