50-year-old woman gives birth to own grandson
<p><span>A 50-year-old grandmother has given birth to her son’s baby despite being in menopause, after his wife was unable to carry her own child.</span></p>
<p><span>Kayla Jones was 17-years-old when a benign tumour forced her to undergo a partial hysterectomy, preventing her from being able to have children.</span></p>
<p><span>“When you’re 17, it doesn’t hit you as much that you can’t have children,” Kayla, now 29, told InsideEdition.</span></p>
<p><span>“You’ve got prom and dates… what kind of cars people are driving, you know, that kind of teenager stuff.</span></p>
<p><span>“Then you fall in love and get married and say, ‘OK, I’m ready to start a family,’ and it all comes back around and hits you again.”</span></p>
<p><span>The couple explored surrogacy and adoption but after multiple disappointments, mother-in-law Patty Resecker stepped in.</span></p>

<p><span>“I kept seeing Cody and Kayla kind of get sad and think, ‘What’s our next step?’” the grandmother said.</span></p>
<p><span>“I told Cody and Kayla that I would do it if I can.</span></p>
<p><span>“It's their baby; I was just the valet.”</span></p>
<p><span>As Patty was going through menopause, she had hormone injections in her first trimester to keep herself and the baby healthy.</span></p>
<p><span>Once Patty was pregnant through IVF, Kayla, who is a nurse, would inject her mother-in-law daily.</span></p>
<p><span>On December 30, baby Kross was born and has reportedly been doing well ever since.</span></p>
<p><span>The family shared their journey on a Facebook page called </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/CreatingBabyJones/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Creating Baby Jones</span></strong></a><span>, which shows happy pictures of the family as they welcomed their baby. </span></p>
