I was 45 when my 1st was born

Catherine McDiarmid-Watt | Friday, March 25, 2011 | 0 comments

We are trying to conceive our second child, really hoping that we can give our first child a sibling. I was 45 when the first was born, so I hope that gives others some encouragement.

It was a little disconcerting though to be considered geriatric

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.
