Is it true that it is difficult to have babies when you're 30+?

nope... there would be no problem to pregnancy if both are productive.. we could just have a little problem upon delivery of the baby..

I have heard of that but there were still some women who were able to conceive babies in that age range. They said its going to be difficult but its stilll worth the try. I am also worried that I am not gonna get pregnant at that time so I decided to get married before I turn 30. I am married now and it has been a year and I am not pregnant yet. I do hope that one day soon, before I turn 30, I am already gonna have a child.

I think it is fairly easy to conceive from age 30 to age 35 years old. Between age 35 and 40 it might take more time for a lady to get pregnant. I know plenty of ladies that successfully had a first baby at age 30, 31, 32, 33 or 34 years old. Then they successfully had a second child before age 40. I had my second son born when I was 34 years old. I had my daughter born when I was 36 years old. My sister had her fourth child born when she was 39 years old. These days many ladies concentrate on their career when they are younger than 30.

Hi emdyey, It differs on individuals dear. Normally a lady can conceive upto the age of menopause. But some experts are saying rarely there is chance of pregnancy in women after the menopause too. There is no problem at the age of 30 for conceiving. Doctors have an opinion that having baby before the age of 35 is good. There are chances of problem after this particular age. But I know many persons who delivered after the age of 40 that also a normal delivery. So it is entirely depends upon the physical health of the women. Now women are focusing more on their career and getting married lately. Even if they got married they will plan for a baby according to their career. If you want to get marry lately I can’t see any problem for it. If you have a regular menstrual period, then nothing to worry. (If a women have irregular period may face some problem in later period for conceiving). Eat healthy food and consult a doctor for suggestions before conceiving. Physical fitness is always important. Good luck to you.

it depends with each individuals, don't get fat so you would'nt have problem giving birth at 30's..

I was worried about this situation too cause I just recently turned 30 and into relationship for 6 years and I don't know when I will get married. They say that that was true but there are few who says its depends on your body. They say that to be able to have a fast and normal delivery you have to always walk and exercise. I know someone who is about 8-9 months pregnant and she still work. After giving birth I asked her was it hard and she replied "no" it was like no pain at all.

i had no trouble personally. i had our daughters when i was 31 and 35. i guess it just depends on the person.

i am not a woman but my wife gave birth when she was 35. though i can say that she had a lot of miscarriages before we hit the jackpot. but it is a case to case situation i guess. the sister of my wife gave birth when she was 36 and she didnt have a problem at all. one of our cousin gave birth when she was 42 and that was her first baby. there are also a big range of hollywood stars who conceived and gave birth and they are all 40 and over. so when that time comes the best way is to have a regular check with your obgyne for she can answer all of your questions.

Well I dont think thats thats true, if the two people are healthy, and physically still able to bear children there should be no difficulty in conceiving a child I know of a woman past her 30tys still got pregnant and had a healthy baby. With that said I think that babys conceived by older mothers are at a higher risk of birth defects docters say that older mothers have a higher risk of having a child with physical or mental problems or both, of course its not a guarantee, and if the mother is reciving proper medical care the risk is much lower, so thats something to consider, but like I said as long as the two adults are physically still capable of reproducing it can and will happen there are many woman past there 30tys having healthy children some woman are in there mid 40s even menopausal women may still be able to have children but there are health risk to consider.

I don't think so.a friend of mine had her first baby when she was 32 or 33.I heard that having a baby when in 30s is much better because the woman is already fully mature, both physically and mentally.I would prefer to have a baby when I turn 32.

When i had my last child i was 32 and i fell easily pregnant with him.Alot of my friends are nearly 42 and they have children under a year old and they also found it easier to get pregnant.I think it all depends on how well you are as a person.I think i had more problems falling pregnant when i was in my 20s.

my mum was 40ish when she had my lil brother, she found it really easy and had a hour labor

There is! I gave birth to my eldest at the age of 31. I spent like 10 hours in the labor room and another 2 hours in the delivery room. Then , another 21 year old woman was rushed in the delivery room and in just 10 minutes, a baby was already crying. I waited for another 30 minutes before my baby was out.

yes. scientifically yes. after the age of 30+ complications of delivery are raised. chances of sizzer are mostly in that cases. and its very tough for mother health.

It is not true. Today people tend to get married later, and therefore, they have their children later. I have many friends who are pregnant after they are 30 years old. It becomes much more common today. I love China

i think when you reach 40 then its your first baby that difficult -.-

For me not because if you don't have a sick it is ok to have a baby.

Yeah dear, now a days after 30 years it become difficult to conceive also. Because of the changes in the atmosphere, food habits, time sense etc., If at all they conceive after 35 there may be growth problems with the baby. First conceive should be below 30 years then if you conceive next time after 30 years is ok, but first conceive after 35 years is not good. But there are some cases where the woman conceived at the age of 40 years best example is Madonna (2nd issue), she conceived after 40 years of age. If you are strong and healthy then ok. And there is stories in the bible also woman was blessed with a child at the age of 100 years. That time they may very strong and healthy i believe and god grace also there. Now every thing become mechanical, no interest in life, over expectation in the life, stress, frustration, depression, tension and many matters making woman infertility and if at all they conceived they are not fully fit to give natural delivery. So girls must have a plan about this. The elders experience should take into consideration and must act accordingly.

I do not think so, just keep yourself health. My aunt gave birth to her little when she was 34, so I have a litte brother, younger than me about 22. Good luck for you.

I can tell you a very big N O !!! I had my three daughters in my 20's, when my third one was born I was 28 and that was our family complete. I went back to work and was on the mini pill. At 38 I became pregnant wit my fourth daughter - the doctor blaming the fact that I was taking antibiotics making the pill less effective. I went back on the minipill but at 45 , when I was diagnosed as menopausal I found that I was 16 weeks pregnant with a healthy baby boy!!
