Chances are this will be her only baby given her age.

Disagree. These are celebrities with a lot of financial resources. If they do second baby, they’ll have a second baby Kate Bosworth just had her first at 43 via surrogacy.

Aubrey could use donor eggs if she wanted and chances with young fertile eggs would be quite good even if she wanted to carry herself. For the average dual income federal worker couple in DC probably not an option, but in Hollywood definitely plausible if not probable.

Kate Boaworth is anorexic so of course she couldn’t carry her own child and used a surrogate. The baby was born last July.

.

What is your point? Celebs have options commoners don’t have. If Aubrey and Chris want another baby they can use donor eggs and a surrogate or considering Aubrey is not anorexic she could carry.

Kate seemed happy to be a stepmom until her Kate 30s divorce. She met Justin at 38 and probably when they married at 41 they decided on kids. And they have one.

Happy for everyone but feel free to hate on these people you don’t know.

As someone who also had a former partner end his life, I wish others were not so judgmental. The one who ends their life chose to do so, and it leaves their former partner in a horrible position.

I have all the empathy for her.

My guess is her husband had mental health issues and Aubrey suffered living alongside those for years. I hope she’s found happiness, as she’s likely had a very difficult path.

Or her cheating, deception, and humiliating him drove him to those “mental health issues”

This is not a thing. And you are using a thread about a celebrity pregnancy to be an ass to someone who had an ex-partner die by suicide, so reflect on your life choices for God's sake.

+1. Especially when there was no oops baby after being with her now dead husband for a decade, when she was much more fertile. It ain’t adding up.

Some of us are successful users of birth control. It is somewhat wild to me that the possibility of this being the case, particularly for someone as highly-resourced as Aubrey Plaza, is not closer to the front of your mind.

Why would a childless married woman in her 30s be on birth control?

Same reason I was—didn’t want a baby then. Stopped using it when I wanted a baby. Started again after I had the baby. It is not rocket science.

This site is so weird about fertility in 40s. More women in my family have had babies in their 40s than not - my two sisters both had babies at 41 (and my grandma had one at 45). I stopped “early” at 38!

It seems like you all are trying to convince yourself it’s impossible for some reason

Yeah, I don’t know why people go to extremes with this topic. We all know that fertility declines with time and no one is saying that it’s as easy to get pregnant in your early 40s compared to earlier. But saying it’s impossible is not right either. Did any of us just stop using birth control at 40? I’m guessing not.

And those of us with grandmothers who were around before birth control probably know that they had babies in early 40s. Both of mine did.

This is one of the weirdest questions I’ve seen posted.

I’m sorry, is this message from 1950?

That is... not at all true. At 40, most women can get pregnant without an intervention. And most of those pregnancies will result in a healthy baby.

I just don't believe it. sorry. I don't know any woman in real life who got "knocked up" in their 40s with her FIRST CHILD with no medical help. All the 40+ year old first time moms I have ever met took meds to make it happen.

Add to this, this woman has been severely underweight (ED?) for 20 years. I would find it more plausible for this to happen to someone who is normal weight.

You not being able to believe something beyond your narrow world view is your problem. Also, why do you care so much?

Atlantic had an article about babies in 40s not so long ago.

My mom and both of my grandmothers had babies well into their 40s

You don’t know it is “her first baby.” Just because someone hasn’t given birth to a live baby doesn’t mean they haven’t had a baby before. Don’t be a speculative jerk, OP.

I’m glad everyone is acting so normal about this

Good for her. I feel like they’d have a cute kid!

She had a tough year. A bay must be a wonderful surprise.
