Elizabeth Adeney, 66, is soon to be Britain’s oldest mother to give birth. The previous oldest woman in UK to give birth is Dr Patricia Rashbrook, a psychiatrist whose son was born in 2006 when she was 62 years old.
Elizabeth Adeney, a wealthy businesswoman from Sulfok, now is eight months pregnant. She is expected to have her first child within 4-6 weeks via Caesarean section. Unlike Patricia who has a husband at his later 40’s, Adeney is a divorcee. She has to bring up her baby by herself in the future.
Elizabeth Adeney conceived her baby using donor eggs and sperm after receiving the in vitro fertility treatment in Ukraine in 2008. In the UK, the hospitals did not offer the IVF treatment to the woman whose age is above 50. Source: Dailymail
