The physical and mental capacity of women who decide to be mothers beyond 50 years is quite debated.
Some time ago I imagined my mother, who is already a grandmother of four grandchildren, raising a baby of her own and I think she would lack energy, but of course every case is a world.
For this reason, because each situation is special, the result of a study by the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Southern California Keck School of Medicine in Los Angeles does not seem like a great finding.
According to the researchers, after conducting a survey of about 150 women of different ages, they concluded that Being a mother after age 50 is no more stressful than being at another age.
That is, there is no significant difference in the level of stress that a woman is supposed to become a mother at age 30 than at age 50.
The impact of stress and mental and physical behavior of a group of women who were mothers after 30, another after 40 and another after 50 years were compared.
Actually the data is very subjective. There are women who at 50 have more energy than one of 30, no doubt; and others that at that age can be absolutely overwhelmed by motherhood.
In itself the fact of having more than 50 does not imply being unable to raise a baby, beyond which everyone can have their own opinion about motherhood at an advanced age.
