My friend had her 1st baby at 45
My friend had her first baby at 45 tears old, conceived without medical assistance.
A relative of my husband was the oldest woman ever to give birth at our local maternity hospital aged 49, again conceived naturally.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
One of my college roommates had her one and only baby quite late….
A result of waiting for the right moment to come, as well as unfortunate circumstances...
She is now almost 50 years old, and her daughter is 4 1/2 years old...
Technically she is old enough to be a grandmother!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
My mother had her last healthy baby at 45 years old, and her last pregnancy at 47 years old!
I have friends who had babies in their 40s - one started at 42 years old, and had three babies, one year after the other (all normal and healthy).
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I am 43 years old and am 35 weeks pregnant with our first child.
I was quite fit and healthy at the beginning of the pregnancy, and this has stayed with me throughout.
On the scale of things, I have had a lovely pregnancy so far: just occasional nausea in the first trimester, one night of acid reflux in the second trimester, and a week of leg cramps in the third trimester.
I am as anxious as any other first-timer but more grounded than ever before in myself.
I love my husband and we're both delighted to be having a baby. His support means everything right now.

I don't think you are old at 43 years old.
My God, my friend's mum had her last baby at 55 years old, and that is the honest truth.
She had a beautiful baby girl, and both of them were very healthy.
Then my younger friend had a Down Syndrome baby, and she was only 20 years old when her baby was born.
So please, I really don’t believe in this **** about the older you are, the sicker your child can be.
