Wanting to have a child when I am already in menopause.?
Me and my boyfriend would like to have a child if we get married. I am 53 and he will be 52 in August. He and I each have one child and we want to have one together? Can someone please tell me how I getting pregnant or do I have to do something like in vitro fertilization? Thanks.

If you do get pregnant, which it is possible because older people have conceived, your child will have a high risk of mental or brain disabilities.
Why don't you adopt? Plenty of children are in need of a loving home:)
Good Luck!

A reproductive Endocrinologist would be the best bet in helping you. Even though you are going through menopause you can still conceive. First you have to have your FSH (http://in2mesee.blogspot.com/2008/11/fsh... and other important levels checked.
If you cannot conceive your own child, you could always use donner eggs and try IVF or adopt.
I wish you the best.
Good Luck and lots of baby dust.
