Grace Collins defies conventional norms by having three children at ages 44, 46, and 51. Emphasizing self-care and medical guidance, she utilized IVF, motivated by her awareness of fertility challenges at her age. Collins experienced both challenging pregnancies amid crises, but felt more attuned to her body in her 50s, reflecting on how her maturity influenced her wellness. She expresses contentment with her family's growth, asserting that while late motherhood is unusual, it can lead to fulfilling experiences.
"I know this sounds crazy, but I felt better this pregnancy, when I was in my 50s, than I did before. It's hard being pregnant no matter what age you're at."
"My age helped me in the sense of being more in tune with my body, knowing that I have to be compliant with the doctors' orders. It helps me be motivated to take better care of myself."
