[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I don't understand....
I had children in the early 00s and it was GENERALLY and widely accepted that there was a danger zone past 35 because of scientifically established risks associated with getting pregnant over 35.  All of my peers had children in late 20s and early 30s. Very few AMA moms, and yes, I was living in an urban area and we were all "well educated."

Did they come out with new research?  Or are people just ignoring it?[/quote]

No, the old moms on here think that they know better than scientists and medical authority. It doesn’t apply to them, they are among those whose biology is exempt from aging and what the AMA reports. Don’t you dare disagree with them, they need the validation. [/quote]

NP.  I had my kids in the early 00s.  2000, 2003, 2006 to be precise.  Only one of my many friends was under 30, and she wasn't American.  Here, in DC. I don't know what urban area you're from, but I doubt it was here.  In fact, with my first, at 33, one of the L&D nurses commented on how young I was.  It was comical (I must have looked younger than I actually was)[/quote]
