Congratulations. The child will be gay. This is nature's way.

If she can reasonably raise them and care for them, who cares about age?
good on her...a GOOD parent is always better than just some egg/sperm donor, regardless of age

Uhhhh... Tell em to fuck off.. My grandma had my youngest aunt a year AFTER I was born, I'm 24 and the youngest of 3, my oldest sister is almost 30. My grandma is 70 something.

I am 43 and my 23 year old wife had a baby 2 yrs ago. I never thought I'd have another but he is the best!

rhon23 08-20-2009 01:54 PM

My friend had twins when she was 42. I dont see a problem with it

xmas13 08-20-2009 01:57 PM

Whatever,,,,,,,,,,,

i dont think that is too old. people are living a lot longer these days.

but besides the age, the main thing is if she really wants a kid, and loves the baby, then that is all that matters. there are plenty of 21 and 22 year olds that have kids they dont want... age isnt always the deciding factor!

I'm pushing 40 and my daughter will be 2 in November.

No one has said anything to bum me out. not once.

My wife is 32 tho.

We both cant be any happier :)

I'm in my mid 30s and have a four year old daughter. Looking back, I think I would have preferred to start things at least a few years earlier. I see retirement as spending quality adult time with my life partner (and by then my daughter will be mid 20s too), I couldn't imagine retiring when I had an early-teens daughter or son...

in PA its completely different. I get asked "when are you going to have kids old man" pretty often as this is something most people do by the age of 25, right after they get married at age 24.

F that, im 29 and not ready for no kids :1orglaugh

it is like that here in Louisiana. Teen pregnancy capital of the USA, and most people pop out kids at 20. I'm almost 35 having my first, and people seem to think I am old having a kid. Told me it would be hard on my body, etc. :1orglaugh

There are multiple 40 something women in my family who have had kids with no problems. Unless you live hard and plan on dying in your 60's, I don't see anything wrong with it. I know chicks down here who started having kids at 15, and I look at myself as having 20 more years of life experience to parent with than that. :)

good for her! 43 is not too old at all.

I think alot of guys would make better fathers starting in their 40's than in their 20's :2 cents:

:) yea I'm 41 and already a mother. When this came up the other night, I thought about if I could do it all over again from the beginning now...still thinking about that.

Personally, having a very young mother, I think older adults make better parents.

I feel, especially in today's society, haivng a child in your 40's is pretty acceptable. The only thing that concerns me with older mothers is the risk of down syndrome. Once you pass 50 then new issues are raised, such as can a 70 year old adequately parent an adolescent / teenager, or life expectancy - will the parent reasonably be around long enough to see the child through to adulthood.

I can see where you are coming from. But I can see a 70 year old adequately parenting in the teen years if they taught and nurtured them from birth. It comes down to the parenting from day 1 which will mold the relationship in the formative and teen years.

70 year old's may not have the physical strength but the one thing they have is wisdom and life experience in having already lived that long. And paying that forward is a strength to pay forward more than a physical strength. It's about having lived in mind and spirit, not just body. That is nurturing from more than just physically keeping up.

What about the insecurity the teen would live with knowing that its only a matter of time before their parent dies? Not to mention possible stays in hospitals, etc. Life expectancy is only 74 for women you know.

all the best to her and her family. very happy news that she shouldn't let anyone spoil.

woot woot

My mom had a baby a few years ago at 42, doctors told her it was a bad idea and risky and stuff... She did miscarry the year earlier, but she tried again and now I've got a healthy brother 24 years younger than me.

Choopa Phil 08-24-2009 08:04 AM

my mom is 46 and im 24 if thats any constellation...granted she was 22 when she gave birth to me, and no i wasnt an accident, very much planned =]

Snake Doctor 08-24-2009 01:23 PM

I think it's pretty asinine for anyone to pass judgment one way or the other. It's her life, it's her body, she can do whatever the fuck she wants.
FTR I think the baby will be much better off with a mom that's 43 than one who's 23, or 13.

The only exceptions to the "pass judgment is asinine" rule for me would be something like Octomom....where she intentionally has an assload of special needs kids that you and I have to pay for.....but even that's a slippery slope type of thing.

:2 cents:

People have been using the word blessed like it was ketchup on fries. To be blessed is to have God move heaven and earth for you, not after you sneezed (please save your etymologies for this expression for another thread).

Can't disagree with Horny Joe on this one. They were indeed blessed. Congrats to them!
