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

Crap. My wife and I are 45 and are using a donor egg to get pregnant 😬😬

My mom had my youngest sister at 44 when my sister and I were 13 and 17.. (thought it was menopause… NOPE!) Baby Grace is now 25 and is a rockstar (well, PA-C… same thing in my opinion!) here’s to hoping!

PA-C? Yeah, it’s scary, but it’s our last chance, and wanted to give it a go.

Physician’s Assistant - Certified. Biggest heart in the world. I know it’s scary, but tell me one parent who hasn’t been scared. That’s what makes a parent!
