[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Using age as an overall metric for the mother's health galls me. The OB for my 2nd birth at 42 would regale me with a new vivid account of some risk I was running. He tried to get everyone to induce early since he was a single MD practice with no one covering for him. I always had to google to ascertain that all the gory pictures he was painting had warning symptoms that I didn't have. I don't think a marathoner from a long lived family who conceived in two months at 42 should be lumped in with the general population of 42 year olds. [/quote] The science is clear that pregnancy and birth in your 40s is risky and increases exponentially every year you age. Just because you don't like hearing something doesn't make it untrue.[/quote]
