Mary LaRosa experienced pregnancy for the first time at 24 and had her fourth child at 44.
"My pregnancies were all great," says the Boston, Massachusetts, mom. "My first was special because I really wanted to be a mom. Being pregnant at an older age was special too. I generally knew what to expect. There were still a few surprises, but I enjoyed the pregnancy immensely."

I use to take my girls to this one park years ago and we met a set of grandparents who took care of their granddaughter while their daughter worked full time. They were devoted to the child and knocked themselves out everyday.
The baby was 4 months old and she said "I don't know if I can do this all over again! She told me "my daughter was 56 when she found out she was going to have this baby and her first one was at 52!" She said, “my husband and I are almost 80, I just don't see how we can manage!"
Can you all imagine having a first baby at 52 and another at 56!
TODAY'S BOOK SUGGESTION:
What I Thought I Knew: A Memoir
by Alice Eve Cohen
--A personal and medical odyssey beyond anything most women would believe possible
At age forty-four, Alice Eve Cohen was happy for the first time in years.
After a difficult divorce, she was engaged to an inspiring man, joyfully raising her adopted daughter, and her career was blossoming. Alice tells her fiancé that she's never been happier. And then the stomach pains begin.
In her unflinchingly honest and ruefully witty voice, Alice nimbly carries us through her metamorphosis from a woman who has come to terms with infertility to one who struggles to love a heartbeat found in her womb - six months into a high-risk pregnancy.
What I Thought I Knew is a page-turner filled with vivid characters, humor, and many surprises and twists of fate.
With the suspense of a thriller and the intimacy of a diary, Cohen describes her unexpected journey through doubt, a broken medical system, and the hotly contested terrain of motherhood and family in today's society.
Timely and compelling, What I Thought I Knew will capture readers of memoirs such as Eat, Pray, Love; The Glass Castle; and A Three Dog Life.
Paperback: 208 pages
