Pregnant at 50, delivered healthy baby at 51

I think that as a mother who became pregnant at 50 and delivered a healthy baby girl at age 51, that I can contribute a viewpoint from someone who is actually doing and living this. First of all, I have no trouble keeping up with my 3 ½ year old daughter and she was planned and wanted.

At age 45, after 20 years of marriage, I had a baby. We had not planned it. Was it the ideal time -- hmmm -- when is the ideal time, anyway? Well, for us anyway, it turned out it was. I followed doctor's orders, ate organic and whole grain foods whenever I could, and we beat the odds. Our son was born healthy and beautiful.

My grandmother unexpectedly fell pregnant with my uncle (after 6 children) when she was 48 and my grandfather was 49.

I became a mother for the third time at 43 (almost 44) and my child is a blessing to our family.
