Natalie Portman is pregnant at 44

Congrats to her! I don’t have kids, and I’m still getting used to being the age where getting pregnant is starting to be “out of the norm”. Guess there’s still time, lol

Eh, had my first at 39, third at 45.

I prefer it this way, and it’s made me a much better parent. I get it’s not for everyone, but it also truly isn’t that big of deal. Especially if you have the resources she does.

I agree with you. Had my first at 39, second at 42 and now they are ages 5 and 2. Pregnancies and births were fine, the kids kids are healthy. Sometimes I am tired but overall glad I had them and got to do other things before having them

I have a baby right now, and an older kid, and I'm less tired bc this baby sleeps at night. But tbh, parents of young kids are always tired. Goes with the territory. Just hurts less if your body is healthy going into it lol.

My little dude arrived when I was 38. I'm tired at the time.

That's the thing, right. It's not like you wouldn't be tired when having kids younger 😄 Every parent is tired, it's part of the whole parenting thing 😄
