[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would look at the statistics of the health of the baby from moms that are 41. Like the probability of a child born with Downs, etc.[/quote] Here we go again . . . At 38, with my first, my chances were 1/300. With my second, they didn't even give it a second thought b/c my first was healthy. first a girl, then a boy In all honesty, the Down babies I've known were born to women in their early 30s - pre-AMA. All of my pals who had kids around the time I did (all working women who married late or held off) have healthy kids. So while my experience may not be the norm, they are MY experiences. And I can't say I'm unhappy with my decision to wait. [/quote]
