+1. My grandmother had her last baby at 46, but she’d had a few kids by then. First baby naturally at 45? Possible but not probable.


It's all genetics, so who knows. A friend got married at 40 and proceeded to have three children between then and age 45. Fertile genes!


Right, but then her baby at 45 wasn't her first. I'm happy for OP's friend but remain doubtful it was done without intervention. I say this as someone who had both her kids in her 40s.

I’m happy for your friend. Mine lost another IVF attempt and I’m so sad for her. I hope she has another chance somehow.

This, but who cares. Congrats to her anyway.

My former coworker just had her second at age 50. Healthy baby girl. It’s not for everyone but these children are obviously very wanted and loved!

Just hit 23 weeks and all is going smoothly and I'm just over the moon for them. She'll be 46 when the baby is born. Thought I'd share here, in case its helpful for anyone!


This is such great news! Congratulations to your friend. This baby will be deeply loved!

That’s probably true, but it still seems like a harsh response.

Congratulations to your friend! Wishing her an uncomplicated pregnancy, an easy birth and a healthy baby.
