Are there any older mommy's out there? I'm 39 and expecting my fifth baby. Due oct 30. What are the risks of having a baby at 39? I'm a little worried. The stuff I've read says everything should b okay.
Yeah Meeee... I'll be 37 when #3 arrives. It's been 10 years since I've done this so it all feels very new again. Although my only symptom is tiredness. I was worried because of my age but my doc assures me that women are having babies much later in life and all should be fine. I'm not sure about having an amneo test at the moment, I think ill just leave it in the hands of the gods lol. X x
The absolute only increased risk in older mothers is the risk of down's syndrome. (Well, you also have a higher chance of twins, lol). Unless you have other health issues, you are no more likely to miscarry or have any other complications than a 25 year old. Congrats on your babies, mamas!
