Britain's oldest mum gives birth to baby boy - Update

Businesswoman Elizabeth Adeney has become Britain's oldest mum after giving birth to a son.

She secretly checked in to hospital this week and her baby was born on Tuesday.

Divorced Elizabeth - who turns 67 in July - and her son are being cared for at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge.



Both are believed to be healthy, but are being monitored by specialist doctors.

She is understood to have chosen to give birth at the hospital because a private clinic might have been unable to deal with serious complications.

Weighing 5lb 3oz, her baby was delivered by Caesarean section. She was due to give birth next month but doctors brought the procedure forward.
