Older Women and Pregnancy

Tweet

What age is to old for a woman to get pregnant? I think a woman should have the right to have a baby at any age and that is of legal age to be an adult. My mother had a baby in her early forties and we did not think anything of it. But other people did and the made fun of her being older and pregnant. The family just thought it was something natural and a blessing from GOD. As a woman gets older it is harder for her to have a "normal" pregnancy. I do think that if a woman was to get pregnant after she has passed the so called "child bearing years" that she should prepare her body by taking prenatal vitamins, eating a healthier diet,exercise,no smoking or drug use. Why is it ok for a man to be almost 100 and if he can still make babies he is considered a king, But a older woman is looked at like a granny having a baby. Whaty do all of you think?
