No your not too old. Maybe you should talk to you doctor about things that could help you to keep the pregnancies. Ectopic pregnancies do affect a lot of women though. Just remember in the early stages to stay positive and eat healthy. This is the time that your baby if growing the most and getting all of its vital organs. Good luck with becoming pregnant and always remember adoption is an option!

Your not too old by any means. I was 39 when I had my daughter.
If you believe you're at risk for an ectopic pregnancy, meet with your doctor to discuss your options before you become pregnant. There's nothing anyone can do to prevent ectopic pregnancy, but you can make sure it's detected early. Approximately 30% of women who have had ectopic pregnancies will have difficulty becoming pregnant again. Your prognosis depends mainly on the extent of the damage and the surgery that was done.
If the fallopian tube has been spared, the chances of a future successful pregnancy are 60%. Even if one fallopian tube has been removed, the chances of having a successful pregnancy with the other tube can be greater than 40%.
The likelihood of a repeat ectopic pregnancy increases with each subsequent ectopic pregnancy. Once you have had one ectopic pregnancy, you face an approximate 15% chance of having another.
The odds are still in your favor. I wish you luck.

Noway! You just have to keep trying and stay positive. I know that's easier said then done. I'm 29 and have been trying to get pregnant for 3 years. I had a miscarriage a little over a year ago. Have you tried other fertility methods?

at 35 years old l wish l was 35. but no your never to old to have children. there are people in their 50s that are having babies now days. but l would stop at 48. cause they say after you turn 45 lt makes lt a little harder to give birth.

ok i may be a teen but i no my stuff,my friends have had there mothers give birth at and past 40! so i highly doubt ur to old, and until you stop having your period you are capable of having children, you may want to be on strict bed reat while pregnan and have more checkups than usual, and take extra good care of yourself. if you just cant have a baby, you can adopt, your missing a child, and a child is missing parents!!

No, women have babies into the 60s sometimes. But you need to talk to your doctor because s/he's the only one who can really advise you on your medical issues/likelihood of healthy pregnancy.

No, but time is fast running out.
If you'd already carried one baby to term it might be a lot easier. But it may still be possible. Don't be deterred from trying or you'll always regret not having tried as long as you could.

Those things, although awful to go through, really don't decrease your odds of having your dream of having a baby of your own by much - if any.
You're not too old either. If you really desire to have a baby, don't give up. I believe you can do it!!!!!
Good luck!!! I'm rootin' for ya!!!!!
