  55 ain’t what is used to be. Jeri Ryan is 55 now.

  So, misplaced timeline aside, Beverly “to blave” Crusher is not to be taken at her word.

    Its not about looks when you talk about having kids at older age. Its about genetic risk factors, increasing the risk the pregnancy goes wrong or your child will have issues.

      It’s not even about that.

      Like 99% of women have hit menopause by 55, and the number of births for mothers over 50 with no medical intervention in the conception process is extremely low. So low that Wikipedia has an article detailing specific women it’s happened to.

      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pregnancy_over_age_50

      This wouldn’t be a huge deal, except a major plot point is that it was an accidental pregnancy neither of them planned for. So it’s not like she was getting any kind of fertility treatment.

        The fact Q shows up at the end to meet Jack makes me wonder if he had anything to do with the “accident”.

        Teleporters, Warp speed, and phasers you have no issues with, but medical science advancing enough to extend the human period of fertility is unrealistic?

        Considering it’s kind of the whole plot of Picard season 3, them yeah, it’s common knowledge.

        Fuck yeah, go watch Picard S3.

        It was a fun ride.

        You don’t really need to watch the other two seasons first if you don’t want to; the only thing you won’t have is the backstory on why the hell Picard knows Seven and who Seven’s kinda girlfriend is.

    Season 3 of Picard was about that.
