[quote=Anonymous]I had mine at 35 and 38. I'm about to turn 40 and I'm done. However, if we hadn't had our 2nd, I would absolutely still be trying now. Yes, the occurrence of chromosomal abnormalities and other complications does increase with maternal age. You take care of yourself, you take advantage of diagnostic testing and medical interventions if that's your thing (or don't! that's fine too!), and you deal with the impacts of your choices just like you would at any other age. If I had my kids in my early 20s there would have been consequences, sacrifices, risks, and joys - just different ones. That's life![/quote]
