TV lawyer Nancy Grace has been released from the hospital after complications from child birth. The 48-year-old Cable TV host delivered twins back on November 4th but wound up in the hospital herself after doctors discovered 2 blood clots in her lungs. Nancy delivered twins (a daughter and son) who arrived two months ahead of schedule and are still hospitalized.
Blood clots are a danger to any pregnant woman, but especially in middle aged women.
Nancy Grace is certainly not the only high-profile woman over 40 to have her own baby in recent years. Oscar winner Geena Davis had twin boys at age 47, and Elizabeth Edwards delivered her son Jack at age 50.
