[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]'Nature does not care about you or your baby' - yep. I had a full-term neonatal loss (after a textbook first pregnancy, Bradley method classes, general crunchy outlook etc) I was not AMA at the time, was perfectly healthy, and was with midwives. Turned out my son had an undiagnosed cord issue. I now know several AMA moms who had stillbirths at 40+ weeks due to placental insufficiency. This stuff isn't just made up by mean medical people - there are real risks and the consequences are devastating.[/quote] I'm so very sorry pp. The theory that placental insufficiency is more common with AMA moms is unproven at last in medical research. Stillbirth risks do rise at the end of pregnancy but researchers have not figured out exactly why on a population level. https://evidencebasedbirth.com/advanced-maternal-age/[/quote]
