The Charms and Sorrows of Motherhood at 60

A woman has the right to motherhood, and she can use it when she is ready for it. Nature has decreed that a woman has up to 50 years to decide whether to become a mother or not. After that, the body gradually loses its reproductive function. But there are women in the world who break all stereotypes.

Lauren Cohen became a mother at the age of 60, the woman has faced many condemnations, she is accused of selfishness to this day. Today we will tell the story of Lauren, who became a mother of three children in old age. Without the support of her lover, Lauren would have lived a normal retirement life, but at 60 she fell in love, and it turned her whole life around.



I met Frank in a dance class. He was a great dancer. I asked him to dance with me, and he agreed. I never would have thought that Frank would be interested in me because I am 20 years older than him. She divorced her 66-year-old husband and fell in love with her dance partner. And he reciprocated.



At first, the couple was embarrassed by the age difference, but love was stronger than any prejudice, and Lauren and Frank married. The couple was ready to build a relationship at all costs. Lauren knew that more than anything in the world her lover dreams of having children. She couldn't deny Frank that valuable experience. Lauren wanted Frank to raise his children, watch them grow up, not just watch his aging wife.



I couldn’t stand the thought that my husband would grow old and not be able to start a relationship with anyone else at 80. He'll be too old to start over. And he'll never have children again. We decided that we would become a real family.”

After the wedding, the couple decided on IVF, but due to age restrictions, the doctors refused the procedure. Lauren's age left no chance of a successful outcome. Lauren was over the maximum age at which to conceive a child. But the woman was determined and did not give up when she was rejected again and again in the new clinic.

Lauren managed to find specialists who helped to realize the dream. Lauren was given three eggs so she could get pregnant. The woman gave birth to a daughter, and a year later she had twins. She became the oldest mother in the United States.



Contrary to public opinion, Lauren tries to be a good mother. Since she tried to get pregnant, Lauren has been doing yoga once a week and started eating right. The woman does not change her habits and hopes to live as long as possible for the sake of her children: I will do everything possible to live as long as I can. I have to maintain my health until I'm 81 to send my kids to college, says Lauren.



Lauren faced public disapproval and because of her decision to become a mother, she stopped communicating with her eldest daughter. Daughter Lauren believes that at this age to be a mother is indecent. Lauren admits that being an elderly mom is not easy because people mistake her for a grandmother. Lauren knows that one day it will be her time to leave this world. But the children will have a father who loves them very much, he will take care of the children, and the children will take care of him.



People think they know what they’re talking about when they judge the actions of others. But when it comes to our own happiness, we all struggle with stereotypes. Can't you fall in love at 60? You can’t give birth and raise a child because it’s not accepted? Lauren is a strong woman who has not succumbed to stereotypical thinking and made her dream come true. She lives her life the way she wants.

A woman not only gave birth to children in old age, she does everything possible to make her family happy. This woman proved that it is never too late to be happy. Thanks to the support and support of her lover, who is loyal to her, despite her age, everything became real for Lauren.
