With the change in people\’s concept of getting married and starting a family and the improvement of education level, many people are entering the so-called \”late marriage\” age, and the number of elderly expectant mothers is also increasing. So, what is an expectant mother, and what knowledge should an expectant mother know? let\’s see!
Are the risks of pregnancy higher at older ages?
What is an elderly expectant mother? ? Experts believe that expectant mothers who are pregnant for the first time over the age of 35 are \”elderly expectant mothers.\” Generally speaking, the best age for women to get pregnant is 25-30 years old. Fertility gradually decreases with age. If you want to become an elderly mother, the most important thing is to understand yourself and seize the best opportunity before your body\’s functions decline. Only in this way can you be a happy mother after a successful career.
Women who delay pregnancy are most concerned about miscarriage. About 15% of expectant mothers in their early 30s will experience miscarriage; for 40-year-old expectant mothers, 25% will encounter this situation; and after the age of 45, half of expectant mothers will encounter the risk of miscarriage.
Because the cervix of older expectant mothers is generally tougher, the cervix opens more slowly, and natural delivery is more difficult, caesarean section is more common among older expectant mothers. With the development of medical technology, caesarean section surgery has been greatly improved than before. Therefore, elderly expectant mothers who have had a caesarean section do not need to worry too much.
Today’s medical technology can make pregnancy safer for women over the age of 35, but women in this age group still have higher rates of complications than women in younger age groups. But if you decide to have children in the future, you need to be aware of the risks and be more careful to reduce the risks to ensure a healthy baby.
