No one age that is too old to have a child

Dyni asks: How old is old for a woman to have a child?

Kurt Barnhart, MD, MSCE: As long as a woman is free of other medical illness, there is no one age that is too old. However, women cannot have children without specific assistance after menopause. The average age of menopause is 52 years old.

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.
