[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your age is not the issue - you are still young. The issue is that you now have two kids and so the toll and impact of something going wrong with the third would be more difficult to manage. The stakes are higher now and that can’t be changed. He has a lower tolerance for the potential impact of something going wrong. I don’t think you can change that with data. I think you can just both talk through your hopes and fears and see where it gets you.[/quote] this. the problem is not your age, which is relatively young, the problem is that there is always risk of undetectable defect or pregnancy complication. this can happen whether you are 20 or 30. it could have happened with your previous children as well, but didn't. you were lucky. do you want to roll the dice again? this is the question you are facing, not the impact of age, which does exist but it's still small at 36-37.[/quote]
