72-Year-old Woman Gives Birth?

Surely this is not real is it my friend? No I did not want to give birth at 25 so.. lolz

There is no way I would have a baby at that age or anytime after 35 years old actually.

I wouldn't do it, but sometimes I wish I could have another baby (I'm 53). I think it is a bit odd but I can't judge the couple. I know how long it took me to get pregnant and how desperately I wanted a baby. I am sure these two have plans with family members to care for the child if they should leave this earth before he becomes an adult.

I remember meeting an mid 80some year old male skater. I had seen him at several competitions with a toddler whom I assumed was his grandchild - but it turned out to be his son!! I have not not seen or heard about him in recent years . . . it's been over 15 years since I met him . . . so . . . . well, I'm just assuming the worst. But he had a VERY young wife, so if anything did happen, the boy would still have his mother. A different situation for the couple in the article. But for myself, no. However I say that having 2 kids already . . . it may be different if I never had kids and had a great desire to have just that one no matter what. I don't doubt this couple has a lot of love for this child, but I sure hope they have the energy to raise this child.

I was 40 when I had my last child. That is old enough. Don't read my posts, cuz then you will know how old I am.

I read that news on Facebook today. It's shocking.

Too old, I think, but at least the child was born with love. Hopefully they will make arrangements if it becomes necessary.

I think this couple will be around for a while. She gave birth at 72 years old. That's gotta be one strong lady.

there was a lady in the bilbe who had a baby at 99 year old her name was Sarah and her husband name is Abe ask a rabbi he tell you more of the story

I thinck give birth it's a blessing and if God give here a child at this age that meens that He have a purpose with that child and maybe she thought about it before and she is based on somebody that will tacke care about her child when she will passe away. I sincerrly don't want to have a child at this age but it's my choice.

I can't even begin to imagine giving birth at 72 never mind having to care for an infant. It's crazy

I saw the headline of this this morning. I think it's crazy who would take of the kid when they die?

Well, I never thought that was possible. But I guess most anything is possible today. Just because it's possible, however, doesn't mean people should go off and do it.

Negative! Wow, I can't even imagine how that is possible!
