I had my third kid at 51 and it was my easiest pregnancy heres how my age was an advantage

Anything is possible.Technically speaking, women have a biological clock — but moms like Grace Collins are giving hope to those who feel pressure to have children by a certain age.Collins just gave birth to her third child at 51 — and doesn’t have any regrets.

The 51-year-old didn’t meet her one true love until she was 40.After she got married at 42, the mom of three assumed at that stage in life she couldn’t get pregnant easily — so she told TODAY, that the couple “jumped into IVF.”“I knew that time was not my friend,” Collins said.

Her video — which has garnered three million views — has over 14,000 encouraging comments from other women.“My mother was 61 two days after I was born, and my Father was 73.
