How old is too old for having kids in your opinion?

If you are a woman, would you ever consider getting pregnant & raising a child above the age of (lets say) 45?

I think above 35.

Absolutely not, I think that is too old to have a kid.

I say 50 and over. I've seen plenty of people in their 40s that looks good having a baby.
 
I don't think there is an age cap for having children, except of course if your body has run out of eggs. Even then, though, if you have gotten some of them frozen or adopt it doesn't really matter. :huh:

Well lets take your theory to the extreme, do you think an elderly person (in their 80's or 90's) should take on the stressful and often physically demanding task of taking care of a baby 24/7?
 
45 is the limit, I think up to 40 years of age can safely try for a baby, we live longer living standards are improving. Anyway, the most important are really want to have a baby.
