Congratulations to Senator Duckworth for giving birth to little Maile Pearl! She becomes the first senator in U.S. history to give birth while serving in office.

I hope they allow her to sometimes have the baby on the floor.
It would be neat to see (on video) all the Senators storm the child with all that attention.

And of course on Youtube the comments are mostly negative. What is wrong with conservatives that when they see this story instead of "congratulations, that's good for her" the first thought that comes into their head is how she is too old or shouldn't be working (neither of which would be said about 50 year old male Senator having a child)?

Partisan politics are nasty.

Obviously don't agree with the shouldn't be working bit, but concern about having a kid at her age is a pretty legitimate thing to bring up.

I'm just saying it's fair to bring up because it's a known fact that having a baby at her age is risky to the mother and child.
