Scientists have conducted studies and told to what age women can postpone the birth of a child

Modern women are increasingly concerned about: At what age do they give birth? These arguments are often associated with the desire of most couples to live “for themselves” and “get on their feet.” Young people think about their careers, dream of moving up the career ladder and postpone the birth of their first child for later.



Of course, these days, too, there are “shorts”. How old they are to give birth is their business. Some have time to give birth to children before the age of twenty and no longer plan to return to this topic. But for the most part, early pregnancy is unforeseen. The older the woman, the more long-awaited the child and the more consciously she relates to the birth of a baby. But too long to postpone the birth of the first child is still not recommended.

Doctors consider the best period, to what age women give birth - 25 years. The body is younger, chronic diseases are less and the possibility of natural fertilization is much higher. But no matter what the doctors say, every woman is different. And it is very important that the pregnancy is expected, and the baby is desired!



More recently, the peak of fertility among women was at the age of 20-25 years, and by the thirtieth anniversary they usually completed the replenishment of the family. In the medical card of a pregnant woman who is already 25 years old, put a mark - "old-born". That's the word you have to say! Then it was replaced by “older reproductive age” or simply “age” – no better. Why write anything at all?



At what age do you have your first child today? The age of women in labor has become older because young people are in no hurry to have children, and this trend is especially noticeable in developed countries: half of the first-born are 30 years old.

Pregnancy The main reason that determines the age of birth, The ability of a woman to become pregnant. And often late birth is a whim of fate, and not the desire of a woman to wait with the birth of a long-awaited child. And, although doctors say that a woman’s fertility decreases with age, many people get the happiness of motherhood after 35.



Some couples (after futile attempts to give birth to a son or daughter on their own) resort to IVF procedure. But there are examples when a woman’s fertilization occurs naturally, although before that the couple was diagnosed with infertility.

It also happens that pregnancy does not occur for unknown reasons, and then suddenly, when a woman does not hope, a baby appears. Having a baby is a miracle, and it happens sometimes, believe my experience!



In the recent past, our women also sometimes became mothers later than usual, but such cases were the exception to the rule rather than the usual thing. For example, our relative gave birth to a second child at 45. Her first daughter died of the disease in early childhood, and her mother suffered greatly because of the tragedy. But at an older age, she became pregnant again, gave birth to a son, raised grandchildren and safely waited for great-grandchildren.



I know a lot of people whose mothers gave birth after forty. And none of them had Down syndrome. I also know families who became parents of a sunny child in their 20s and 25s. This I mean that, according to scientists, with age increases the risk of genetic abnormalities in the newborn. As practice shows, there are risks at any age, and no one is protected from them one hundred percent.

Every woman decides when to give birth, and no one has the right to forbid her to become a mother!
