The desire to grow old is one of the strongest and most widespread, but we know that after a certain age, it’s harderfor women to get pregnant. In general, the probability of becoming pregnant decreases after the age of 40 and the onset of menopause.
That’s why many women who want to have children choose to start with their partner at a more favorable age.
Jenny, from Portland, Oregon, is a 62-year-old woman who has long since given up hope of becoming a mother for the third time.
People’s surprise and disbelief prompted a chorus of criticism. Many have accused the woman of being reckless at her age and of making a mistake in bringing her pregnancy to term. “On the other hand, many have praised my husband, not least because they know his age and see how well he’s done all these years, whereas they’ve been harder on me,” Jenny said.
On the other hand, she also spoke of the support she received from many mothers who, like her, became mothers in their forties. It’s normal to develop more problems after a certain age, but as long as you have regular check-ups and medical care, there’s nothing that can’t be corrected in time.
