she is not going to be enjoying her retirement, after having 2 children i would not wish to have one at this age, what a nightmare. poor child will be lucky to have her mum at her wedding. as this is a mistake i guess its different but the women out there who plan to have children at this age are not thinking of the child IMO, only themselves which is unfair. i think you have to be fairly fit to bring up children and keep up with them, not easy at 57+.

oh well thats my opinion

Good Luck to her I know what I would rather have been told. Going in with suspected cancer, and coming out with a baby ( no contest)

Yep, that sums it up for me. Having watched my mum die an agonising death of a stomach related cancer, having a baby is a doddle by comparison, I assure you.

I expect she'll be like all Mum's and get on with it...

She knows a thing or two at 57 and will probably plan help carefully to avoid too much stress. At that age she may have worked and be nearing retirement so she could have enough money to cope comfortably. She must also be very fit but will probably take longer to get over the Caesarian than a younger Mum..
There will be problems later as the child grows up with an 'old Mum' but then I was too, at 39, and and having a surprise baby then was the best thing ever.

We're off shopping for clothes tomorrow but will the older Mum want to do that when her daughter is 20?

I'm sure she'll be a really loving and laid-back Mum and I wish her all the best for the next few years.
