Description

You'll laugh, you'll cry as a line-up of admired Australian women share their stories of having babies after the age of 35. They are the new face of Australian motherhood - women over 35 who are having their first baby. But what makes a woman defy the biological clock and wait until she is in her mid-thirties or early forties to have a baby? Career keeping her up at night? Can't find Mr Right? If only it was that simple.

DEBORAH THOMAS, editor, The Australian Women's Weekly 'It was a miracle for me to fall pregnant, an extraordinary miracle.' MAGGIE ALDERSON, journalist and author
