Wow, what an interesting story. This Christian site did an article on a book called "Surprise Child" about a woman who has a surprise pregnancy at the age of 43, then another one two years later. Although the article talks about how she struggled to get through it, it should be encouraging to those of you who think getting pregnant over 40 is impossible. Read more:www.crosswalk.com
From the article:
That last example was the story of Leslie Leyland Fields, a then-43-year-old college professor who found out she was pregnant with her fifth child—and then two years later with her sixth. The news of her fifth and sixth pregnancies did not come easily to Fields or her husband, who thought they were done with diapers and midnight feedings. She writes honestly about her struggle to find joy in these pregnancies in a book called Surprise Child...
...Fields found that her church friends could not understand why she was upset, yet her work colleagues could not understand why she would choose to have two more children. Feeling alone and isolated, Fields says she knew that "God is the maker of life" and that she had "to find a way to receive with open hands these children He had made." And she did just that, realizing in the process that her surprise children were no surprise to God and that He would supply her family with everything they needed, including the strength and joy to love two more children.
