[quote=Anonymous]There are risks at any age. The 3 people I know who have children with Down syndrome all conveived and delivered when they were in their late 20's. Yes, the risk is high as you get older, but the risk is alawys there. The biggest issue with 35+ is getting pregnant in the first place as fertility does decrease with age, but once you are pregnant the risk of abnormalities aren't much different. There have also been studie lately on the risk of older fathers an increased risk of autism. [/quote]
