I know someone who's recovering from an ectopic pregnancy at 53.

My Grandma had her last child at 48 (75 years ago)

Thought she was menopausal, she wasn't.

When I did placement as a student at a hospital, the oldest I saw was 50.
However there were quite a lot of 40+ year olds. For many of the women it was their first pregnancy.

45, accidental twins (already had 3 older teens & thought she was nearly done, so was bit of a shock!)

Twins at 48

The mentions of years ago are amazing really as being 50 back then was old.

MIL had her last ( of 9 children) when she was 48.

BunnyRuddington · 09/07/2021 07:59

48 and gave birth at 49. It was twins and the DF was a few years older. First children for both of them. Think parenthood came as a bit of a shock...

My auntie was born when my grandma was 47.

My mother was 42 when she gave birth to my brother 53 years ago - the woman in the next bed was 50.

MrsMoastyToasty · 09/07/2021 08:10
  1. She had 5 other children. The eldest was 25 years older than their sibling and often mistaken for their dad. They were full siblings.

Known personally, 46. My friend who is a midwife has seen a natural pregnancy at 50. The woman thought she was menopausal.

Its worth bearing in mind however, that often older pregnancies you hear about from previous generations were mother's covering up their teenage daughters accidental pregnancies by pretending the child was theirs.
