Woman Who Gave Birth At 66 Wants Second Child

Adriana Iliescu, who was the world’s oldest new mother in 2005 when she gave birth to Eliza Maria Bogdana, said: “It could be a son if God and the doctors want.”

The Romanian university lecturer said if she had a son “he would act as a support, who would protect me.”

Iliescu caused a stir when she gave birth to Eliza in 2005 after conceiving through IVF.

(...) Speaking to the Spanish newspaper El Mundo from her home in Bucharest, Iliescu said: “I have thought of having another child soon."

“This time it could be a son if God and the doctors want. It would make me very happy to have a son. In 15 years he and Eliza could take me for a walk through the neighborhood,” she added.

In 15 years, of course, Iliescu would be 87 years old.
