Hi,
I was under the impression that at the age of 50 mother's couldn't give birth any longer but I just had a couple who did when the mother was 50 and the father 48 so when does it stop? I don't want a baby being born just for its parents to die or something! :S

That was the case in the VV series, but I don't think max fertile age has yet been determined in VF. Maybe someone will try it so that we'll know

I've got a woman and a man who are 51 and 52. They have been trying for a baby, just coz I wanted some toddlers runnin round, (the others went to college) and they have tried for a baby many times and I think they have reached their limit.

Could a 46-Year-Old Female Have a Child?

Or has the max age of fertility even with the baby boost been reduced to 40 max?

Thank you. ^^

I've had successful kid-making up to age 47.

I have had baby success at 54.

Well, I just tried an experiment with Briana and Bennett. She's 62 & he's 60. They opted to try, but he was done before she even got started. Typical. Guess maybe that's a bit too old since they have to be reminded to put their groceries away now.

That's so good to know HP!

My oldest girl to have a baby was 47 - he was 49.

For me in most cases after they start greying the stop having kids.

I think my oldest mom was in her early 50's. She had a set of twins!

The oldest age reported in the forum for a mother is 54. Since the peeps slow down at 55 and start to forget things (like putting away groceries as MoonStar said), it looks like 54 is the oldest possible. As peeps get older the likelhood of their having children diminishes as well.

If I really need the kids to continue the game (if they have no adopted ones), I never let them be single after 35 - till this age it's sure they can have babies without trying a lot.

I was wondering... my couple is 49 (both) and I wanted to make them have a baby. At what age can they not have any more babies?

I don't think that there's a cut-off age for having children, usually they don't have any more after 50, but I've heard that some have children at 50-54, but rarely.

The oldest age you can get your people to make a baby is 60

How exactly do you know? Did one of your peeps have a baby at 60?

Apart from jpeg's post above, the oldest age for a mother to have a baby I've seen reported in the forum is 54. That makes sense, as the peeps become elderly and slow down a lot at 55. I suppose it might be possible for someone to father a baby at 60, but his wife would have to be under 55.

I agree with arnie. Because any time at all that I've tried to have a baby when the wife is over 54, I have failed. And even in the fifties the chances are small for me. So I would have to say that having a wife give birth at 60 would be unlikely, if not impossible.

The oldest i've had is the mother being 49

I think that my oldest was 47 or 48, like Moonlyght. But, just to be safe, I alwaystry to get married/ have kids early on.

i just had one of my peeps have her first baby at 50 yrs old...didnt think that would be possible..lol

my couple (46-47) were trying for a baby for quite a while, and since their last child (4th) was born when the woman had just hit her forties, i thought it wouldn't be possible to have one. i spotted both perfumes (man+woman) in the shop and i gave it to them (it still took about 5 tries after that) but then i had my 1st pair of twins!

My brother had a 50-year-old mother once in one of his old families (the father was 49, I think). And that couple's youngest child was 2 at the time this child was born, so they had two late in life children. Sadly, the father died in his late 50s and the mother at 60, so the kids were left alone at ages 12 and 10.
That was the oldest mother I've ever seen in game - I've had quite a few peeps have children in their late 40s, some at 49, but never 50 or over since that one time.

My parents are the same age and they've had children. They had their last child at the age 59!!!They had triplets and after nursing them the mother and father died since they were very small I HAD to move to the next gen. I wonder where they are Now??
