[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People here don't seem to understand the meaning of anecdotes, data, and sample size.[/quote] For as highly educated an area as DC is, it’s been interesting to see how much dumber we are than I thought.[/quote] The people posting about getting married young probably aren’t the brightest bulbs on the tree. They probably aren’t even in the DC area. [/quote] Yup, brightest bulbs prefer to panic after 35 and settle for whoever is available so they can first deal with infertility and then enjoy divorce process together. [/quote] Not pregnancy struggles, it’s sometimes a doctor informing you can’t have children at all. [b]A handful of my girlfriends from college discovered they were already barren in their early and mid 30s.[/b] Healthy and successful and told at age 33 you waited too long to have kids. [/quote] Just stop. No way this is true. It’s incredibly unusual to have your eggs depleted by early to mid 30s. [/quote] Sadly, it is not uncommon at all. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/13/health/women-doctors-infertility.html [/quote] This article doesn’t support what you posted. At all. Infertility is different than being “barren” / having no eggs. The women in this article are often 40, not 30. If anything, the article is saying that stress is resulting in infertility. You need to look closer at the causes of infertility. I had “unexplained” and started trying at age 25. You’d probably criticize me when I had my first child at 35 and tell me it’s because I waited too long. But no, even at 25 I couldn’t get pregnant without help. [/quote] This was me too. Started at 28. Delivery at 37. [/quote]
