When I’m 64 – I’ll have my first child

A pensioner from Canton Aargau has given birth to her first child – at the age of 64. This makes her the oldest mother in Switzerland.

Mother and daughter, who is now four-and-a-half months old, are both well and on Tuesday appeared on the front page of Swiss tabloid Blick.

The woman, whose husband is 60, had a miscarriage when she was 61 and three years later decided to try again. According to Blick, she went for an examination in Italy and then traveled to Russia where she received an egg from a donor. This is illegal in both Switzerland and Italy.

“When you harbour a wish so deeply, you must fulfill it,” said the proud mother in the video.
