Higher standards of living have meant that an increasing number of women are healthy enough to see through a successful pregnancy well into their forties.

In Scotland last year, there were 8,310 births to women aged 35 to 39, 1,471 births to women aged between 40 and 44, and 39 aged over 45.

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost that precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted that there will be no more babies in our house.
