Over 40 Fabulous and Pregnant
Over 40 Fabulous and Pregnant Podcast is the ultimate podcast for women over 40 who are trying to conceive or are pregnant. Typical episodes are one woman's journey over 40 years old from TTC, pregnancy, birth and postpartum every other Monday. We laugh, cry, share a little TMI and openly talk about the ones we lost.
Prepare to feel empowered trying to conceive, believe pregnancy is possible over 40, relate to other women's struggles, be educated about how women get pregnant, feel like over 40 isn't too old to have a baby, embrace 'advanced maternal age', and ditch outdated expectations.
Hosted by Jamie Massey who also shares her own journey to motherhood of almost three years. She became a mother at 43 using donor eggs. She has had seven pregnancies and continues to share her journey.

104. Rosey is on to share her IVF pregnancy with donor eggs. Rosey shares the intimate details of her decade-long path to motherhood. After a relatively straightforward journey with her first daughter at age 36, Rosey was met with years of "unexplained" infertility while trying for a second child. She takes us through the clinical maze of IUIs and mini-IVF, the heartbreak of a mid-trimester loss, and her eventual decision to pursue donor eggs. Rosey speaks candidly about the importance of being your own advocate—specifically how she pushed for endometriosis testing when she was told "it’s just your age"—and how she navigated the transition to donor conception with a focus on bonding and peace.
We also feature a special "update" where Rosey and I reconnect months after our initial recording. In this powerful segment, she reflects on how her story took one final, unexpected turn.
