Searching for success stories on IVF over 40 ?
pregnant over 40 success story
You have come to the right place. Im a success story and this blog details my journey.
I am 43 and the mother of a healthy beautiful sweet little 10 month old son. I was 41 when I started IVF and became pregnant and 42 when I gave birth.
I created this blog to offer positive information about the IVF process to women over 35 after scouring the internet myself desparately looking for success stories of women my age undergoing IVF treatments. I was nervous and afraid and really wanted some inspiration yet I couldnt find what i needed. So mysticmiss was created and here I am, 20 odd months down the track giving you living proof that IVF over 35 works and being a mum over 40 is most definately achievable.
If you havent read any of my previous posts, please do. They are filed under IVF process and were written in ‘real time’, as I was going through each step in the IVF process. They offer a detailed run down of my IVF journey and the things I did, for my physical mental and emotional wellbeing to help the process along. They are written utterly from the heart, aimed to give an honest perspective of the journey.
To share my story with women going through the same process or women thinking about starting IVF who are searching for inspiration, who want to connect with a success story to help them find the courage to begin has been a truly uplifting experience. I thank all the readers who supported my journey, who offered kind loving words and encouraged me to continue to share my story. To those of you who are still in the process, i send you my love. Try to keep positive and keep visualising the outcome you want. It can happen for you, dont give up, keep the good energies flowing.
I am living proof that becoming a mum on IVF over 40 is possible. I am proof that the process can be smooth and straightforward and am proof also that the journey no matter how emotional and challenging, can be a beautiful one with a happy ending.
I know that this is not always the case, I know there are women who experience a great many challenges, but when I began my journey and actually all the way through it, I needed to hear about successes as well as the challenges. I NEEDED to read about womens positive experiences. I wanted to read positive uplifting information.
So to all of you who have found their way to this blog I send you my love and my best wishes for the adventure ahead. Keep your thoughts positive, acknowledge your fears but dont let them take over you and keep your heart open.
These I believe are keys to success in this journey. To believe that you can and will be a mum, to have faith your process will work and to consistantly visualise the outcome you want, to see it in your minds eye clearly. This is the attitude to aspire to. Sincere blessings to you all.

Beautiful baby bump Mystic Miss!
Congratulations on your little blessing.
I have really enjoyed your blog journey on IVF. I am just turning 41, we have been trying for nearly a year on our own and just tried IUI in November. Aster all the tests, we expect to try IVF over the next couple months.
I have little fear & ready to jump into this exciting journey – The only real fear is not having the funding to try countless attempts. so your comment about “money” on one of your blogs helped put it into perspective (so thank u).
Question – I have implemented acupuncture, some yoga moves, gotten back into my speedwalking/jog as well as added vitamins/minerals. Did you also focus on a specific nutrition regimen (other than avoiding alcohol) or did you just practice the art of positiveness & stress free living
-would LOVE to hear.
Hi katie, so lovely to read your message, thanks for being in touch. Im sending you alot of love and good energies for the road ahead and hoping it goes fabulously for you.
Im such a believer that the state of your mental attitude is a HUGE part of this journey, so keep aware of where you are in this area, its natural to be worried along the way, but if you notice negative thoughts coming in, stop them in their tracks with super positive ones, and keep the visualisations up every day. keep visualising yourself holding your little baby, or being pregnant, or jumping for joy getting the your test is positive call from the Dr.. whatever feels right for you.
I listened to a dvd by belleruth naperstek at night while going to sleep too http://www.healthjourneys.com/category.aspx?catid=27 it was specifically for fertility, there is affirmations and visualisations -
also have a quick read over these tips, just to make sure you awareof them. i got them free via email. http://www.PersonalPathtoPregnancy.com/Mistakes.html
As for nutrition, i began eating porriage every morning with no milk, just put some water on the boil, add some halva and crush it into the water ,add the quaker oats, stir it around for a few mintues, when its thick to your liking, thats it its ready. i added some maple syrup too after it was cooked. it was hard in the beginning , it wasnt my thing really, but after a few days, i could really feel my body had much more energy and so i carried on.
I also tried to eat as many of the orange veges (cooked) as i could, carrots sweet potato etc and as much dark green veges spinach as i could.
I tried to eat a hot nutritional dish for lunch rather than dinner, so wheni went to bed, my body could focus on healing and rejuvenating, rather than digesting..
i suppose i just tried to eat the best i had ever eaten, really putting loving awareness to what was going into my body. My chiinese Dr was an angel in this, she really got it into my head that in order for my body to perform to its best i needed to give it the energy to do so by eating well.
I also took 3 x super strength omega 3 a day, a multi vitamin, folic acid and a vitamin B 12
i also made a point of watching sunsets and acknowledging the moon phases – tuning in and connecting to the cycles of nature.
i just got into it with all my heart, not connecting at all the medical procedure, that was the Dr’s job, mine was to have my body my mind and my soul open and responsive to the process..
goodluck katie, keep in touch and if you have any other questions please dont hesitate, Im here for you anytime you need. blessings girl, go create that baby

Have a happy, healthy new year!

Beautiful baby bump. I would like to read more
About your experiences. In particular with ivf and the emotional and physical aspects you experienced. I have had my first ivf which resulted in pregnancy. Everything went well. Had a similar experience as you. No real pain just straight forward. Sadly I just found out yesterday that I miscarried. I was about ten weeks pregnant. I am not giving up and will try a second time as soon as I can. I am also 41 and need some advise how to get my spirits up and be able to increase my ability to think positively. I have liked reading your posts but somehow there seem to be gaps/ posts missing. Hope you and your little family are doing well and that you will read this and possibly advise me.
