[quote=Anonymous]I agree with PPs that raising a child when you’re older is an important consideration. However, it seems like your biggest concern is the increased risk of having a child with health problems and/or a difficult pregnancy. In that case, you might consider adoption. While any child can develop health problems, I would assume you would have basic information on the child’s health and would not have the physical strain of pregnancy. I don’t have direct experience, but my understanding is that while adoptive parents may need to wait a while for a baby, there are lots of older children needing families, and raising an older child as older parents might be a positive factor.
