I think you’re confusing had a kid with literally bought a kid. |
Oh, please. And the point is Taylor didn't miss some sort of window. |
You are insane. |
She very likely missed out on getting pregnant naturally without a doctor’s help. She missed out on 10 years or so of seeing her kids and grandkids growing up. |
She’s 34, not 44. |
Age 34 delivery at 35 means BEST CASE any pregnancy moving forward will be a high risk geriatric pregnancy. |

Cue DCUM fearmongers around women who choose to have children later. Or — GASP — not at all. |
No. After 35 there's some extra recommended testing (which is no big deal, especially for someone with a lot of resources) and the pregnancy is categorized as AMA but is NOT high risk unless there is a known risk factor, which usually there is not. No one uses the phrase "geriatric pregnancy" anymore, and no OB I know considered 35 "old" for having a baby. Approximately one in 5 babies in this country are born to women over the age of 35. In any case, who even know if Taylor wants kids? It's a crazy thing to fixate on. But if she does want them, she could absolutely have one. BTW, I had my first baby at 37 and my send at 39. Conceived naturally both times, no complications in pregnancy, vaginal births, healthy kids. You are more likely to need fertility treatment after 35 (which is totally fine -- plenty of women under 35 need fertility treatments too) but it's not always necessary and there are a lot of us who conceive without assistance. |
The top of your check out sheet from the doctor had a medical code for geriatric pregnancy. It was there in your file some where. Insurance companies and doctors offices definitely use that term. I remember laughing when I saw it on mine. Taylor can figure out when, how and if she wants kids. Or she can adopt or surrogate or whatever. Her body her life her choice. |
What? This is ridiculous. 34 is not “high risk.” Its rare nowadays to have kids at 24, at least in urban areas. |

Wow I went to Owen Benjamin’s twitter and he has a ton of really racist jokes about Black people. Just one right after the other.
And I remembered why I hardly ever go on Twitter since Elon Musk took over. |
Wow…his tweets are even worse than I imagined! How is he not banned from Twitter. |
You’re conflating popularity with risk and science. Yes, many women wait too long and are forced into high-risk pregnancies, if they can even get pregnant. Fertility clinics are big business because millions wait too long. Swift will likely require a doctor’s help to get pregnant at this point. |
Lol! How have you gotten to your age and not know not everyone prefers/chooses what you choose? For a good number of us have things we want to do and accomplish before having kids - if we want kids at all. We all know fertility decreases as we age. It's a risk like any other. I didn't want kids in my 20s or early 30s. I had an exciting life that I loved and fulfilled me. I couldn't have had it with kids. I don't think Taylor will feel like she is "missing out" on 10 years of kids and grandkids. I have no regrets at not having my first until 37. I'm now 59. |
