    By 40 years old, the odds decrease to 10% per menstrual cycle. Despite these statistics, you can do some things to encourage a speedy conception. This ranges from stopping birth control (ideally a few months before you start trying) to tracking your fertile window for baby-making sex.
    One in 10 babies born to women over 40 is born premature (ie at 37 weeks or earlier). Women pregnant with twins or more (more likely as you get older) are also nine times more likely to give birth early. Women over 40 are, sadly, twice as likely to have a stillbirth at 39-40 weeks pregnant than women under 35.
    Getting pregnant when you're older can mean you feel the strain of tiredness and lack of energy that little bit harder throughout the pregnancy. However, with age also comes experience, independence and more stability. Don’t be disheartened by the nay-sayers, or put off by some of the statistics.
