    Well now if you take out the eeeewwwwww factor and go by straight science...I would say 8 max.

    That would be the female getting pregnant at the ripe old age of 10 or 11 (eeewww) but possible!

    Then carrying the baby for 9 mos. I think it works out to 8 generations?

    ;)

    Not quite sure ,but there were 5 generations in my family at one time.(my greatgrandmother,my grandmother,my father,my sister and her son)I believe that means the eldest in each generation.

    Assuming one generation is twenty years, then the answer would have to be five.
