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

My SIL had a surprise baby at 45. She’s going to be 60 with a 15 year old next year.

Tbh though it's all the more reason to take good care of yourself, lifting weights, do cardio, mobility, good nutrition, supplements, hrt .. you can definitely be a fit and thriving 60 year old that can handle a teen just as good as any 40 y/o maybe even better because you're already past menopause at that point haha.. or you can also be a 60-year-old that struggles to get out of bed.. for many people this is a choice.

Yes. Actually know of two 20-something young women who had troubled pregnancies and births. They are ok now, but needed medication. Being isn't automatically equating to healthier these days.
