Oldest Tyumen Mother Gave Birth at 49

The average age of mothers in Tyumen Region, according to the latest data, is about 30 years. This trend has been observed in recent years.
The arrival of a child in a family is always a joy for a couple. In some cases, women give birth at a young age; in others, at a mature age. Data on the ages of the youngest and oldest mothers in Tyumen Region this year is not yet available. However, according to the latest data, the age of the oldest woman to give birth is known.
“The oldest woman in labor was 49 years old,” the Department of Health of Tyumen Region said briefly.
How she became pregnant — naturally or through IVF — and which child this is for her, is unknown.
Earlier, we reported that medics named the age of the youngest Tyumen woman who decided to have an abortion. As it turned out, the abortion was performed by a schoolgirl.
“The youngest minor to terminate a pregnancy in 2024 and 2025 was 14 years old,” the department told 72.RU.
More than ten women suffered complications after cesarean sections in Tyumen, claim local women who contacted the 72.RU newsroom. This happened in late June and early July: their sutures became inflamed, and fluid and pus accumulated in them. Because of this, some were never discharged from the hospital after giving birth, even though nearly a month had passed. Others had to be urgently hospitalized and sent back under the knife.
Why this situation occurred with several women in labor in the city at once and how the regional health department explained what happened is detailed in this article.
Sometimes they are mistaken for sisters or close relatives, but never for a mother and daughter. They swap clothes, go to parties together, and share secrets. They are each other«s closest people and most loyal friends. They spend hours in heart-to-heart conversations, miss each other when a great distance separates them, and feel sad when their meetings become rarer than they would like. Our Novosibirsk colleagues at NGS.RU spoke with daughters whose mothers could be mistaken for their sisters, and with mothers who raised their daughters as friends: they talked about how they spend time together and what habits they share.
