No, my mom was late 40s and her husband was late 60s when they got married in the Catholic Church. Both were widowed and also had been married the first time in the church. They did have to go meet with the priest in an abridged pre-Cana which they thought was ridiculous.

She did not have him at age 50. Don’t be so naive.
My great-grandmother was 54 when she had my grandmother.

Nope. When MIL died, my FIL got remarried to a widow in the Catholic church. I think they were both in their late 60's/early 70s at the time.

No. The requirement you are probably thinking of is not about fertility. It is the requirement gor the couple to be able to have intercourse

Um, yes she did.
I believe you. My mothers side of the family were French farmers and fisherman. The women had 12 babies up until menopause hit in their fifties and they lived to be 100. Hardy stock.

The requirement is that you are open to life, if that’s the correct term. In theory you could be 70 and “open to life”.
It’s why using birth control is not okay, it is the active use of external means to stop reproduction, meaning you aren’t open to creating new life.
Not passing judgment on whether this makes sense or seems silly, but it’s an explanation.

No, they were referred to as "change of life" babies.
Lots of my parents' friends had change life babies, but they were mostly Catholics.

OP, I think your question may be based on a fundamental misunderstanding, so why don't you share why you ask, so people can explain the fault in your premise.
