[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I don't understand....
I had children in the early 00s and it was GENERALLY and widely accepted that there was a danger zone past 35 because of scientifically established risks associated with getting pregnant over 35.  All of my peers had children in late 20s and early 30s. Very few AMA moms, and yes, I was living in an urban area and we were all "well educated."

Did they come out with new research?  Or are people just ignoring it?[/quote]

20 years have passed since you had kids during which time prices have increased and wages have not, people have to work longer and save. Look at those studies. [/quote]

...so they are ignoring the scientific research of risks. It's a calculated risk taken because they can't afford a kid earlier?

Has it occurred to you that some people don't find their spouses until their 30s? [/quote]

No issue with 30’s, it’s these 40 something year old moms who are pushing it. Desperation. [/quote]

Wow. What is wrong with you? Why are you so triggered by people having children later than you chose to? It’s really odd. And your silly no it’s not you are responses are not shedding any insight. [/quote]

Not PP, but I WILL circle back to my original question.  Did the science change that said having children over 35 is riskier, or are people just ignoring the risks?  [/quote]
