46-Year-Old Woman Says She's Always Yearned to Be a Mom - But Is Unsure If She's Too Old to Have a Baby
A 46-year-old woman who always wanted to be a mom is wondering if she's too old to try for her first baby The woman said she assumed the parenting ship "had sailed" for her — until she met her 'absolute soulmate' The woman shared her story on a community forum, and opinions are mixed on what she should doA 46-year-old woman who had 'accepted' that she would never be a mom is now wondering if she should go for it — and people on the Internet have mixed opinions. The woman detailed her experience on the 'Am I Being Unreasonable?' forum on the U.K.-based site Mumsnet, a place where women can go to seek input and advice from other women. In her post, titled, 'Is 46 too old for a baby?' the woman said she had always wanted to be a mother, but she figured 'that ship had sailed' as she had 'never met the right person.' The woman went on to explain that she ended up 'totally unexpectedly' meeting her 'absolute soulmate' — who is a 'couple of years younger' than her. They recently discussed potentially having children, but she 'mostly brushed it off' due to her age. Now, however, the original poster (OP) revealed she is potentially starting to consider it. The PEOPLE Puzzler crossword is here! How quickly can you solve it? Play now! 'We are financially stable, have good jobs, homes etc. I guess that comes with being older,' she said, before asking, 'But is it too risky? Is it unkind [to] the child? Is society just too prejudiced?" 'I am very torn,' she admitted at the end of her post. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. The OP's comments sparked much debate among her fellow community members. Some said they thought she should absolutely try to fulfill her dream of becoming a mom. 'I would go for it. I had my first at 44 and it's wonderful,' one person said before adding, 'I'd also say that longevity isn't promised to any of us, and people lose parents at very early ages. So go for it!! Good luck.' 'I've probably got a skewed view of it as [my husband] and I had babies at a 'sensible age' and then [my husband] died when he was 47. A lot of people live to their 80s, so you may have a lot longer with your kids than my kids had with their dad!' said someone else. Others, however, said they thought the OP should seriously consider the practical realities of trying for a baby and potentially parenting at a later stage of life. 'I'd say try, but do prepare yourself for it not to work. I got pregnant at 46 naturally, but lost the baby at nine weeks, and the sheer hormonal kerfuffle sent me into premenopause and caused me a few problems,' one person said. 'I had [my son] at 38, and it's a push to be as active as I'd like nine years on. If you're exceptionally fit and active, then maybe, but otherwise I don't think it's wise,' said someone else.

Terry Pheto leads tributes to Tsotsi star Presley Chweneyagae: ‘He was part of my beginning'
Tears flowed freely among the hundreds gathered to honour the life of Oscar-winning actor Presley Chweneyagae, who recently passed away at the age of 40, at the State Theatre in Pretoria. According to a family spokesperson, the Tsotsi star died at his Pretoria home on 27 May following breathing difficulties. Speaking at the memorial service, actress Terry Pheto fought back tears as she remembered her former co-star from the film that launched both their careers. 'Presley was more than a colleague – he was part of my beginning and somehow the end of a beautiful full-circle moment in my career,' she said. 'We worked together on my very first film. We were just kids back then – young, hungry and full of dreams we couldn't even articulate. And yet, there he was, carrying the weight of that story.' Presley rose to international fame for his lead role in Tsotsi, which won the 2006 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. He later became a fixture in South African television, with celebrated performances in The River and Cobrizi. Thabiso Ramotshela, who played Presley's son on The River, broke down while speaking about their bond. 'I miss him so much,' Thabiso said. 'I feel like it's so unfair. It hurts so much because as much as he is not my father, he is my dad. That man raised me. He took care of me. When things got hard on set – Youngins or Blood Legacy – he would call me.' Presley is survived by his wife, Charlaine. 'Charlaine, don't worry. We had a chat, and you said to me, 'Zenzo, don't ever forget these kids.' And I said to you, 'Charlaine, don't worry. I am here,'' close friend and fellow actor Zenzo Ngqobe said to Presley's wife in his moving tribute. 'To Pres – we shall meet. There, we may rehearse most obscenely and courageously. Take pains. Be perfect. Adieu,' he added. Friend Vuyisile Tshabalala remembered Presley as both a national treasure and a brother. 'We lost a giant, an artistic genius. But the show must go on . . . you are a great man. To me, you were like a brother. Rest in peace.' As the memorial service drew to a close, a family representative read aloud a message from Charlaine. 'I would like to thank [Presley's mom] Mama Agnes Keagile for your undying support, my parents, Mr and Mrs Allen, for being there throughout. My brother-in-law Reobone, my sister-in-law, my sister Ndumiso for being my pillar of strength and my go-to girl during this difficult time. My entire Eswatini family, the list is endless, but I'm truly, truly grateful for the support you have shown me.' Presley was remembered not just as an actor but as a gentle giant, a father figure to many, and a creative force who helped shape South Africa's entertainment landscape. He will be laid to rest on 7 June in Pretoria.
