Do you need to justify to others that you give birth at 49 years old?

According to many experts, optimal age for pregnancy It's 20 to 30 years. However, not all women want to burden themselves with the status of a mother at this age. Someone is building a career, and who just likes to enjoy life without spinograting on their hands. What do we do?



Nowadays, we are not surprised that women get pregnant at 40 and 50. The heroine of today’s history fell into this age category. I wonder what difficulties Svetlana had to face and does she regret that she decided to give birth? You will learn about all this later in the article.

When a man becomes a father in adulthood, it often causes respect among people. He did it, he did it! When this happens to a woman, she is often judged. Like what she thought and how the child will live with a mother who is fit for his grandmother.

So many people, so many opinions. However, we tend to believe that such decisions should be made, weighing the pros and cons. Sometimes the age for pregnancy is not necessary. It's a case of chance.



In late pregnancy, it is most difficult to survive it to bear and give birth to a healthy baby. No wonder the optimal age for pregnancy is 20-30 years. In these years, the female body is stronger and more enduring than in 40-60 years.

Svetlana understood all this perfectly. She didn't plan on getting pregnant. At the time, she was 48 years old, 25 of which she lived happily married to her only husband. When she was 20 years old, the heroine unplannedly became pregnant. She went to university, fell in love with an undergrad, and then everything is in a fog.



The girl understood that to give birth now and even from an unfamiliar guy she will not. Tests, doctors, tears - it is difficult to imagine what Svetlana had to endure then. More to see the cherished two stripes on the test she failed.

The forecasts of specialists were disappointing. The children of Light could only dream of. How and why the miracle happened when the woman turned 48, no one knows. The doctors said, “You have to understand the risk you are taking.” And Svetlana went. She did everything she could to carry the baby.

But we will not deceive, age-related pregnancy was extremely difficult. The woman complained of toxicosis until 25 weeks, constant swelling of the face and legs, dizziness, sharp mood swings. In addition, Svetlana did not have the most rosy tests. Because of this, a couple of times the future mother was sent to the hospital for preservation.



Fortunately, the birth went without complications: the doctors tried their best. Only here the condition of the new mother for the first 2 weeks left much to be desired. Once at home, she began to get used to sleepless nights. “For the first six months I survived, not lived,” the heroine complains.

After giving birth, the woman felt old. The face plunged, the back often began to hurt and extra pounds affected the appearance. However, all this did not matter when Svetlana looked at her sweet daughter. She gave this little man his life. What could be more important?

When Olenka grew up, her mother gave her to kindergarten. And although all the teachers knew that Svetlana was a girl’s mother, the newly arrived workers often called her the girl’s grandmother. Of course, it really hurts a woman. But what if she really looks mature?



Sometimes Svetlana lacked patience. This was especially true at playgrounds where other mothers and children gathered. They constantly ask the woman how old her granddaughter is, whether the granddaughter goes to kindergarten and then on the list.

“Not my grandmother, but my mother!” – often in tears almost shouts Svetlana. In a moment of awkward pause, followed by the same apologies, Svetlana always wants to fall through the ground. But she understands that people are not to blame. She just has to accept that reality.



Svetlana often thinks about the future. What will happen when Olenka grows up and begins to understand what her mother looks like? Maybe something will happen to her. What about then? Sometimes these disturbing thoughts keep a woman awake.

Despite all this, the heroine does not regret what she went through. Her main dream came true: She became a mother.. And now she will do everything to make her little child happy. Let it be like this!
