Offitially, the oldest person to give birth was 70 year old Omkari Panwar in India. She gave birth by emergency cesarean section in November 2008. She gave birth to a boy and a girl both weighing 2 pounds. She conceived by IVF. (She never had a birth certificate to confirm age but was calculated because she claims to have been 9 years old at the end of the British Raj in 1947.)

The oldest natural birth was the 66 year old Harriet Stole of Southgate, North London in the UK in April 1999. Born 1 month premature weighing 4 pounds 5 oz her son Henry Thomas Stole, grew up to be a healthy normal child. She also conceived by IVF.
