[quote=Anonymous]People need to learn the difference between relative risk and absolute risk. The relative risk of downs and birth defects does increase with age, and the rate increases quite a bit as you get over 40. BUT-as others have pointed out-the absolute risk stays super low. All that being said, for me my last pregnancy at 34 with a toddler was pretty horrible. I think I’m done. And unless you’re rich, I’m not sure it’s the best decision to be having kids after 40. But I recognize I have no business really having an opinion on this.[/quote]
