Meghan Markle Will Have ‘Geriatric Pregnancy’

Putting an end to months of rumors, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced they are, indeed, expecting their first child — a baby due in the spring. The Duchess of Sussex is said to be in good health, but having celebrated her 37th birthday in August, her pregnancy announcement means she will technically be classified as an “older mom.”

It may sound bizarre, but women over the age of 35 are considered to have a “geriatric pregnancy.”
