Will society judge me too hard if I have a baby at 51? If it’s even possible biologically.

I have a cousin who graduated architecht school at 36. We were talking about life and she said that it’s not too late to do things you want. 
Her example was her becoming an architect at an older age.

But are these the same ?

I want this pretty bad. Is it that selfish? I don’t feel old at all. [/quote]

Do it.  No it isn't too old.  It isn't selfish.  You'll be just fine.

Also, this is the wrong place imo for this question.  For some reason people here are passionately against having kids past 39.  It's an odd thing here and just remember this is an anonymous board. DO it.  My good friend had a child at 50 and she's the best mom and very happy.

Donna Mills' first child at 54 (now 28 years old and thriving), Jane Seymore twins at 50 and both thriving in college, Adrienne Barbeau twins at 50, Janet Jackson's first at 50, Naomi Campbell' first at 51 and her 2nd at 53, Supermodel Cheryl Tiegs had twins at 52, Brigitte Nelson had a child at 54, the list goes on and on... Most IVF Dr's cut off is 55.   DO IT if that is what you want and no need to ask others what they think except your Dr. [/quote]

[b]That’s because the majority of posters here are old (55+). So many 60+ people too. They’re of a different generation with limited knowledge and resources so a baby past 39 seems completely wrong to them.[/b] They’re not fit to advise aspiring new parents.[/quote]

They’re realistic knowing that they don’t want to spend their retirement years raising teenagers.[/quote]
