Too Old to Be a Mum?
Tuesday 26 January
10:35pm - 11:15pm
BBC1
When Sue Tollefsen was 57 she became the UK's oldest mum after undergoing IVF; in the US, Lauren Cohen, now 63, had IVF and as a result has a five-year old and three-year-old twins. Neither has any regrets about "defying nature". But there are concerns about having children so late. These older mums already need help, so how will they cope when their kids are in their teens and they are in their 70s? This documentary poses a question, but offers no answers. Unless you consider that Rajo Devi, who lives in a village outside Delhi, has one. At 70, she has just given birth for the first time, but she's not worried about the future at all - she knows that when she's too frail to care for her daughter, the local community will do it for her.
Anyone else tempted to watch this?

We had the BCG here, day after birth, because we are in a high risk area (think because we're near to Heathrow or some such nonsense) - wasn't compulsory, but thought we'd get it anyway.
Word of warning though, the mark it made is still there, nearly 11 months on, and for a while, until about 6 months it was very red and oozy, and from what I remember it didn't start out like that, just noticed it one day, so don't be surprise if it does gross up soon...0 -
