A 62-year-old great-grandmother has become one of the oldest women in the world to successfully give birth following in vitro fertilization. The healthy baby boy is the 12th child born to Janise Wulf of Redding, California. Wulf also has 20 grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. Her oldest child is 40. Wulf has diabetes and has been blind since birth. Nevertheless, she was a synchronized swimmer in high school, worked as a piano and organ saleswoman and developed a passion for cooking. Wulf isn't the oldest woman to give birth. That record went to a Romanian woman who gave birth last year at the age of 66. "Age is a number. You're as old as you feel," Wulf said.
