Anyone have positive stories of babies after age 40?
Looking for encouraging stories only, please, and no advice on IVF or adoption or foster care, etc. Anyone have a natural pregnancy that resulted in a healthy baby where the mom was at least 40 years old at conception? The statistics are usually couched in the negative, however I have found some encouraging websites like this: “If your turn around the statistics of a 1 in 100 chance, at the age of 40, of giving birth to a baby with some degree of chromosomal abnormality, it still means that you have a 99 in 100 chance of having a perfectly healthy baby”

I’m hoping to hear some encouraging stories from parents who had a healthy baby naturally conceived after 40 or anecdotal stories regarding someone they know personally. Thank you!
