I hate the term "Geriatric Pregnancy" but that's the mom-bomb my Ob/Gyn dropped when she told me I was pregnant. I had been told at the age of 23 after dozens of tests that were both invasive and embarrassing that I would probably never get pregnant. So, I put it out of my mind and said to myself this is your life, you can either be perpetually sad about it or get on with your life and try to learn to be happy. Fast forward 20 years to my 43rd birthday. Went on vacation, was back a week and I felt strange. Took a test and it was a big fat "Positive."
My mom had me all natural at 40. I'm now 46 with a 15 and 12 year old daughters, and I also take care of my now 86 year old mom. Both of us were also born on a leap year. 🍀
48 and pregnant. I have to say I don't agree with that at this age. I don't feel it's fair to the child. The child with just begging to live and the mom will be 70 if she has no health issues. Just my opinion. Good luck to you and your family.
People are living longer past 70 without health issues. Most modern day health problems come from things like cancer or heart disease which can take a parent away at any age. Conditions that affect older adults more severely like covid 19 Americans didn't even care enough to wear mask to prevent
@@lah1667 these celebrities have money for health care and to help with easing a child. Poverty and being able to afford health care is what is really effecting life span and the psychological health of a child
Jennifer aniston has stated that she doesn’t want children for her own personal reasons. It’s only her decision as well if she ever did want to have a child.
@@COUNTRYGIRLMUSICLOVER when people make a joke that either doesn't make sense or is not funny and they get called out on it why do they always accuse the people of not having a sense of humor no your joke just wasn't funny at all
And chances are these are a younger person’s egg or embryo adoption. Celebs always omit that little detail. So it gives the illusion that you can get pregnant at any age with just your own eggs with ivf or naturally.
Only if you are an idiot does it give that illusion. Most women are aware that celebrities getting pregnant later in life are using donor eggs. How stupid do you think women are? 😂
@@DianaMartinez-zi8ur they don’t have to give that information out if they want to. Every woman knows that as we get older it’s harder to get pregnant and have a healthy pregnancy. Celebs aren’t giving anyone an illusion. It’s up to Hilary herself whether she wants to give out the details of how she got pregnant, whether it’s IVF or natural. Her eggs or someone’s else’s eggs.
Hilary said twins run in both her and her husband's family. You can fall pregnant naturally at 48, because near the menopause age, a woman's body releases more of the eggs you have left in 1 last boost to help a woman get pregnant.
@@sarahhelmer7902 Did you do your research first before assuming? Women 45 and older have a HIGHER chance of conceiving twins. And, my mom had me naturally at 40. What difference does age really make anyway? Oh, it's 5.9 percent age 43 and above....
It's a known medical fact that health risks increase in pregnancy after 35. So I'm very surprised she pushed for kids at almost 50. With twins no less! Also raising kids takes a considerable amount of energy and is very tough the older you get. So imagine dealing with two teenagers as a senior citizen. She'll have her work cut out for her!
@Ryan Deffley are you carrying the children? My mom gave birth to me after age 35 and my brother. Please stop worrying about other people. My grandmother had my mom at almost 50
@Holy Empress W - Exceptions don't make the general rule. I mean, I could lay down in moving traffic and not get run over. But that doesn't change that it's a stupid risk to take. LOL
To each her own...some are able when they are... I'm sure everyone has a few or knows a few... you still have a lot of life at 48...whose permission do you need to do this anyway...if you're right mentally, financially, physically and stable housing then what's stopping you. Stigma?
Our new life expectancy is 110-140. What’s “insane” is having babies at 20 and destroying your youth by not contributing something more valuable to the world at large. Women can have BOTH now. Educate yourself.
Bless her heart and hope everything goes smoothly.
She’s my hero! I’m 41 and was giving up… this gives me hope…much needed hope 💜💜💜
Never give up please, God's blessings are real!!
I had my 1st at 40, 2nd pregnancy at 41.5 and 3rd at 43. I'm still fertile. Don't give up
@@BygSexyToy1 All naturally?
Her grandmother and his grandmother were both twins. And, the due date is her late father's birthday! 🎉 It really sounds more miraculous now! 🤗

That's wonderful congratulations 🎉
I can't stand that name either. They put it on every woman over 35 who becomes pregnant.
She looks amazing and so natural!
I had my twins at 48
Finally she become mom for first time.
Congrats to the couple. It's awesome. She seems healthy. Hopefully everything will go well. Bless you Hillary. 💓💓
She's glowing 😍 she looks beautiful
You r fortunate to be having babies so close to 50 yrs old and u look young
Congratulations ❤❤
God bless her pregnancy
Really happy for her she looks amazing for her age,,, hope its all good lil on the older mommy side
My mom was 45. My brothers are/ were 14, 18, and 19 years older.

I just feel sad sometimes bc if u give birth in ur 50s late fortys ur kid wont even finish college and you will be like a senior

Never lol
I think Jennifer will not do it anymore.

So Gwen Stefani still has a shot at it 😂😂
A shot at what? She has 3 sons.

76 is the record
@@wokefromhome7389 Nope, it's the oldest verified mother was 66 years and 358 days with twins using IVF.
@@wokefromhome7389 I think you’re referring to the Indian woman?
America has so many kids that need to be adopted. I don't understand these ppl have so much money they could give these poor kids A home.

How many have you adopted?
I totally agree 👍👍 👍
SHUT UP!
@@Bets74 RIGHT? It’s always SOMEONE ELSE’S job to do the right thing. Makes my blood boil.
So happy for her yaaaay
She won’t be able to reprise her role as Julie Pierce in Cobra Kai if she is pregnant.
She can.
Women can work when they’re pregnant you know, and tv and film always find ways of hiding an actress baby bump
They can use a double or write out the character too.
