Sorry, I can't get suspend my disbelief enough to accept that a 47-year-old woman could conceive naturally. :/

It happens. Usually to women who thought they were past the need for birth control.

Yeah, it's happened in my family. I'll clearly need to be careful when I get to be that age....

(Celebrity example: Cherie Blair got pregnant naturally* at 45, and had a subsequent pregnancy at 47 that unfortunately ended in miscarriage).

* and, according to her own account, semi-accidentally because she was embarrassed to take condoms to Balmoral given that the staff there unpack your bags for you, and she and Tony decided to chance it and have sex anyway. I am torn between feeling this is too stupid to be true (Tony couldn't have put one in his wallet?), and that it's so ridiculous it has to be true because why would you make that up? Either way, it is Very British.

Thank you for that amusing anecdote. :)

My mom's friend got pregnant at 51 - naturally. At the time I didn't think it was a big deal but it's kinda amazing when I think about it now.
