I have different friends that had babies in their late forties. In november a friend had baby and she is 48. These weren't first time babies, but they all did it and everything was fine. Perhaps you could look in to finding a doctor or midwife that is more interested in a vaginal birth for you. (Of course, you got to get pregnant.)

I know some herbs that have helped people a lot-- i800 herb doc is the number for the American Botanical pharmacy. The best herbs available as far as i know. They have formulae for women to help regulate hormones and all that.

I hope some of this helps!
