I’m clocking 40 in some days, and I feel so empty I don’t have my own kids yet. Can I still get pregnant in my forties?

I know a woman who was like 42 or 43 and was pregnant with baby, it was unplanned as she was convinced she was already in her menopause and then she went for her yearly pap and they were like “uummm you’re about 4 months pregnant”. She couldn’t believe it herself, the doctors didn’t find any explanation except for the fact that it’s not up to a year since her period ceased. So that opened a window for her to become pregnant.
You need lots of positivity this time more than ever and a lot of people will try to discourage you, doctors even. You can get pregnant, eve more than twice in your forties. My sister got pregnant twice over the age of 40 without even trying and she has PCOS. She didn’t bother with contraception because she assumed she was infertile.
