A 55-year-old woman gave birth to a baby in 2022 – making her Singapore’s oldest mother to a newborn in that year. In fact, she is only the third woman aged 55 and older to have given birth and registered the birth of a baby since the Immigration and Checkpoints...

What this means is that the baby is not biologically related to the women, but to the egg donor and husband of Dr Nair’s patient.
Some of them have been trying for a baby for years, while others have re-married and are hoping to have a child with their new husband, he said.
