A 'geriatric' mum "judged" for having a baby at 43 says she sympathises with Stacey Solomon - who has been criticised after announcing her latest pregnancy. Lucy Baker, now 46, had her third child three years ago - making her an advanced maternal age mum by some definitions.
And she said today she relates to Stacey, who received some nasty comments after revealing her latest pregnancy aged 33. A comment on Instagram said: "You are at an age where it’s really not safe to have kids, I’d be very surprised if it doesn’t turn out with learning disabilities."
Mum-of-three Lucy said: "I think as soon as women announce their pregnancies somebody goes out of their way to make a comment. I was scrolling through Stacey Solomon's pregnancy announcements and people were saying she was too old.
