While delaying motherhood for a variety of reasons, women have it in "the back of their minds" they can try IVF [in vitro fertilization] if they fail to conceive naturally, the research for Red magazine found.

A total of 211 women had had successful fertility treatment or had decided they were not going to have any more, of which 124 had had IVF.

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost that precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted that there will be no more babies in our house.
