Brigitte Nielsen Is Pregnant at 54

[Anonymous]

Not my thing (though my grandmother had her youngest of 7 at 49--strict Catholic, no birth control) but we wouldn't bat an eye if the father was 54 and the wife 39.

Well maybe in bumbf*ck Idaho or wherever you're from that's typical--but here in the big city, I was 44 with 2 2 year olds and had my 3rd at 45. Get over yourself.

The difference is the man is not actually having the baby which is harder on the woman. I do think that really older dads are creepy...Mick Jagger etc.

Because men can naturally conceive babies well into their 80s.

Women in their 50s are too old to have babies.

Wait until you are 50 -- I used to think it was "old" and now that I'm about 9 mos away from it, I'm reconsidering my previous views. I would have another kid if I could. People wouldn't think I'm 49 -- They would probably think I'm 40. You look at age differently as you age.

That makes me physically ill.

Counseling? Flee to a safe space now?

I hope it goes well for her and that the baby is healthy. Having another baby is not something that I personally would want to do, even at 42, but to each their own.

Not all women in their 50’s are too old. My friends family doesn’t go into menopause until their early 60’s - must be natural for them. Also, some PCOS women have late menopause.
Your telling other people what to do based on your personal biological clock is weird.

Why? She doesn’t look it. I didn’t know she has been married to her Italian husband for 12 years. I lost track of her after the Flavor Flav romance/showmance.

First poster here - Those shows with Flavor Flav aired at least 13 years ago and I put her at late 40s/early 50s back then. Her skin was leathery and she seemed so shaky and frail, I can’t believe she was only 40 then.

She got sober and quit smoking after that. She looks great now. According to Wikipedia she also did some show about looking as young as her husband, so I'm sure that helped.

50s IS too old to have babies. Shocked anyone on here disagrees. By the time the kid gets out of college, she’s basically one foot in the grave

Who gives a crap.
Like her quinquagenarian pregnancy affects any of you personally.
Gimmie a break with your complaints and criticism.

54 is ridiculous. By any measure. No doubt donor eggs. I
Am assuming she did this to keep younger husband from leaving her. I think any kids after 45 is nuts and I had a kid at 40.

Yeah. I had my one + only at 27 and no way would I want to start over in my 40s or 50s! But to each her own. Still, to the 44 year old with 2, 2 year olds: the PP was just sharing her personal experience. There was no need to be nasty: it's rude and reveals your deep insecurities and anger.

Thank goodness I had my second at 48. Just under your deadline!

So what is your cutoff for men? Or since they can conceive naturally til they die, there isn't one in your eyes?
And should grandparents not be allowed to raise children if something happens to the parent?
