If you’re thinking about becoming pregnant, read these tips from the Mayo Clinic to maximize your chances of a sperm meeting an egg, fertilizing and then implanting itself into the awesome uterus (which is kind of like the reproductive version of Boy Meets Girl, Boy and Girl Fall In Love, Boy and Girl ride off into the sunset).
If, like Hallie (at age 41) and many other women around the world, you have decided to get pregnant after age 35, check out these special considerations for you and your body and your baby.
