‘Blessed’ mum who got pregnant aged 48 and 49 slams trolls who call her ‘crazy’

A woman has shared her joy at becoming pregnant at 48 and 49 - blasting trolls who brand her “crazy”. Instead, the doting mum says she is “blessed” to have given birth to her youngest child while going through the menopause.

The proud parent revealed her story on her TikTok as @EmMoments in an emotional video recapping her family’s journey. “Pregnant at age 48 and 49. I’m not crazy. Just extremely blessed! And tired! I’m really really tired,” wrote Em, now 51, as she shared pictures of her two little bundles of joy.

The busy mum uses the app to document her little ones’ journeys alongside that of her older teenage son, 19, who has made “best friends for life” in her younger children. And while it isn’t always smooth sailing when the mum finds herself “exhausted” and “out of energy” - a struggle all parents know only too well - she couldn’t be happier.
