Had her son at 45

Catherine McDiarmid-Watt | Sunday, August 16, 2009 | 0 comments

I talked to a friend of mine today who has a little boy, age four. I boldly asked her how old she was when she had him. (What nerve!)

She said she conceived him when she was 44 and had him at age 45. She had had five miscarriages prior to him. That's something I can relate to.

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.
