Baby at 51?

I wouldn't do it on my own. Also, 51 would likely require lots of medical intervention which is expensive and not covered by insurance.

I adopted a newborn as a single person at age 46- she is almost 11. Best thing I ever did!

I know several people who have done this at near 50. Only do it if you have a LOT of help.
