Britain's oldest mother! Giving birth at the age of 66! The papers are full of the news about the woman, Elizabeth Munro, who is due to become the oldest Mum in Britain in a few weeks. As you might expect, there are opinions left, right and sideways about whether this is "right." Since the news was released this weekend, Munro has taken the spotlight that was previously on "OctoMom" in California.
So, what about Ms Munro's first baby at 66? For my article, "How Old is Too Old? Britain's Oldest Mum-To-Be is 66," go to http://EzineArticles.com/?id=2362887
I agree with what you said on Ms. Munro, dead-on. I wouldn't do it and I do find it faintly distasteful. But I would simply have a very difficult time looking at this lady who's been trying to have a baby for twenty-some years and telling her she has no right to fulfill her dream of motherhood because she's in her 60s. It's splitting hairs for Dr. Antinori to make an issue between ages 63 and 66. Good grief.
