    Without knowing your complete medical history, that would be a question for your OB. However, with the info that you provided, I would say that you would be a very high risk patient. Age alone would place you in the high risk category.

    I agree with J, and I'm not a doctor. As far as I know there are no doctors on this site, and even if there were, they couldn't give you an accurate answer online.

    Your doctor has access to your medical history, access to tests, access to you. It's best to ask your doctor about this. We can only guess based on what you've written, which isn't enough to go on.

    I do have to ask, why do you want another child? Your health isn't ideal, you would be high risk, and you already have 3 children. Why not just enjoy what you have?
