She was 49y when her daughter was born at home.

When I was pregnant with my youngest, my friend was pregnant at the same time. She was 48, and turned 49 before her daughter was born at home. - Catherine

I read an article in Woman's World magazine about a woman who was 51, and thought she was going through menopause, since her period hadn't arrived.
She had tried for years to conceive, and came to the conclusion that it wasn't meant to be, but always held on to a sliver of hope that maybe "someday" it would happen.
Then, at 51, when her period hadn't arrived, she finally realized that her chances of ever conceiving were over. During this time, she was undergoing a massage at her massage therapist's and she told her that she hadn't been feeling well. She told her that she'd been starting to eat "junk food," which she hadn't done since she went on a detox diet more than a year ago. She went on to tell the massage therapist that she noticed she'd been gaining weight around her mid-section, too, and she thinks it was due to all the junk food she'd been eating. The therapist then asked if it were at all possible that she might be pregnant. The woman basically said she doubted it, due to all the years she had TTC and hadn't been successful.
Well, the massage therapist told her to take a HPT, just in case. And low and behold when this woman did, it came out positive. It winds up that this woman was not just one month pregnant, but actually FIVE months along and she went on to deliver a healthy baby girl.
And again, she was 51 years old!

My late father-in-law was born to his mother when she was 46. He was an "oops" baby, because the rest of his siblings were 15 -20 yrs older than he was! And that was back in 1935!!!

If you like you can add me to the list. My son Garret was born when I was 40, my daughter Alanna when I was 43, and Brian when I was 46. Matthew was conceived when I was 46.

I guess I should add my stories. My great grandmother remarried and moved to Canada from England - leaving 2 adult daughters behind, taking 5 children with her. I don't know her exact age, but she would have to be in her 40's when she remarried. She gave birth to 6 more children here in Canada. - Catherine
