Are there any women in this bowl who tried to have their first baby after 40? How complicated or not was it for you? I understand it's different for every unique individual but as someone who spent most of her life on her career and finally has the baby fever, I feel completely lost and don't know where to start. What were the things that were specifically hard?

I had my baby when I was 44. I had a normal pregnancy and didn't have any issues different from women I've know who had their babies earlier. I wish you all the luck. Definitely, start taking prenatal vitamins! The thing that I wish I could erase form pregnancy is the nausea and vomiting, but apart form that, most things were manageable.

My manager's wife had their 4th kid at 46. He was not expecting it and was completely shocked since he was 51. Now the kid is 6.

No advice, but knowing that they weren't doing anything and were still able to conceive.. it could happen
