A 50 year old having a baby will mean the kid will have to hope mom is still alive for their college graduation with how many health problems people have at 60-70 now.
There's no way I'd entertain having a baby at 40, let alone 50. I agree with the poster that said just because it's biologically possible doesn't mean that one should get pregnant that late. I thought I was a normal, healthy person. And then I hit 40 and was gifted with arthritis and now possibly MS. And no, I'm not overweight. Sometimes stuff just happens. As it is, having my second at 35 was pushing it.
The link had nothing to do with Janet Jackson so I don't know if she is planning on getting pregnant, adopting, using a surrogate or anything. I think if you are wealthy, 50 can be done because you can hire people to help you. I personally would never want to do it.
Not sure what link you clicked on, but the link I clicked on was all about Janet Jackson for the most part......

Ridiculous. A healthy, active person is very much alive and well and active at 70 and even older (my mom is 75 and rides a bike 30-40 miles a day). On the other hand, people who don't take care of themselves may not live into their 50's. Age is not the deciding factor.

Actually, genetics plays a large part. There are many people who DO "take care of themselves" and do not live into their 50s, let alone their 70s. Not all disease, disability or death is due to lifestyle and it is very naive and foolish to think otherwise. My sister was "as healthy as a horse" so to speak, never smoked, drank, did drugs. She also ate healthy, exercised regularly, and had three beautiful children. That didn't stop her from developing breast cancer at 45 years old, DESPITE the fact that she went for yearly mammograms and did SBE too.
why is no one talking about the birth defects!! The chances go way up. These celebrity moms are causing a misconception I think, about reality...
The eggs come from a 20 year old, so no, no extra risk of birth defects.
