My grandmother was nearly 50 when she gave birth

Wednesday, July 4, 2007
It is not ‘new’ for an older woman to have a baby. My own grandmother was nearly 50 years old when she gave birth to a very bouncing baby weighing fourteen pounds.

My Mom said that when she was a kid in England, women were always having children up to 50! It just happened, and they called them change of life babies! My Mom is 81 now.

Yes, I wish someone would do a definitive study on pregnancies over 40 pre birth control pills. I think it would be very encouraging! As I have said before, my sister's mother-in-law had her last perfectly healthy child at 50 - around 40 years ago.

I was at the park this afternoon with the kids, and was chatting to a woman who had a baby about Dane's age who was also pregnant again... I of course, had to ask her age and she was 46 as well..... A fire-fighter to boot !!
