Indian Woman Gives Birth To Her First Child At Age 72

Women are giving birth later in life than ever before, and advancements in medical science keep extending the age range which doctors deem safe for women to give birth.

But even with our medical advancements and extended lifespans getting pregnant and having a baby when you're a senior citizen isn't advisable.

Apparently nobody told Daljinder Kaur or her husband Mohinder about the age limit, because after two years of receiving IVF treatments Daljinder gave birth to a healthy baby boy- at age 72.

This is their first child after nearly fifty years of marriage, and Daljinder says she was able to give birth because "God heard our prayers".

Let's see how you feel about that baby when he hits the terrible twos!

This seems very unethical.

The article points out that the doctor has worked on several geriatric patients which seems to be aiming for press, rather than concerns about quality of life for the parents or children. Also this: “People say, what will happen to the child once we die. But I have full faith in God. God is omnipotent and omnipresent, he will take care of everything.” Not a responsible parenting strategy.
