[quote=Anonymous]Not by much. I met my husband at 23, but we didn't feel ready for kids until almost a decade later. I had my kids at 32 and 35, got pregnant very easily and had easy pregnancies. Maybe starting a year or two earlier would have been good but not before that. To the poster that was talking about autism and other issues for older parents, the risk is only slightly greater. It's really, really small, unless you are moving into the mid to late 40s. But, women have ALWAYS had babies well into their 40s. The difference is that in older generations, they were having kid #5,6, or 7 (like both my grandmas) whereas now women are starting later and having fewer kids. [/quote]
