The most recent celebrity mom over 40 is Robert DeNiro’s wife who had a baby through a gestational carrier at age 56. They haven’t confirmed whether donor eggs were used but if the embryos used were created recently, they weren’t created with her own eggs. Before you consider trying over age 40, start off by seeing an infertility doc. Don’t wait to see the fertility doc after several months of not conceiving. Your fertility doc will be able to talk to you about your fertile potential and give you the best plan of action to help you meet your goals.
