Ten years ago, at the age of forty, Kelly Klein felt her biological clock begin to start ticking. She was already at the age when women start thinking that it's time to either get pregnant or consider other options for having children. However, she pushed the thoughts away as she continued to deal with her active life. (If you can't quite place the name, Kelly is the former wife of star fashion designer, Calvin Klein.)
Ten years later, Kelly has acted on her wish to be a mother. She has just taken home a baby boy of about seven pounds to raise as her own. But, no, she didn't give birth to this baby. Instead, Klein's new son was born with the help of a surrogate mother. The child, Lukas Alexander Rector, bears Kelly's maiden name but she says that her ex-husband will still be involved in the new baby's life.
There are many different ways to go about having your dream family. Often, what we initially have planned isn't how things work out. Kelly Klein probably did not think that she would be fifty before having her first child, nor that it would come from a surrogate mother after she had divorced her husband. However, she is likely all smiles as she takes care of her new baby boy.
