Answer:

Maddy and Eric are both in their 40s. They have spent their early adult years focusing on their education and careers. Now that they are financially secure and successful, they want to have a baby. Maddy and Eric should know that couples in their 40s have a senescence or 50 percent infertility rate.

Explanation:

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

    A recent study showed that with each menstrual cycle 20% of women aged 30-31 will become pregnant. This percentage drops to 13.2% in the 38-39 age range and to only 6.6% at 42-44 years.

    However, the incidence of twin pregnancy tends to increase after age 30, as messier menstrual cycles can make women release more than one egg a month.
