A mum who chose to have children later in life says she has no regrets about her decision - saying it meant she could party and enjoy her 20s.
Samantha Heathcock gave birth to her first son, Elliott, at the age of 35. Two years later, she welcomed her second son Jake at the age of 37.
While it wasn't a proactive choice to wait, the 43-year-old says felt like the 'right time' for her after establishing her marketing career, but claims she has faced stigma for being an 'older mum'.
