I knew that there were more reasons to have children at an earlier age. I have often thought the earlier the better because sleep, energy, & stamina are hard to come by after 30+ yrs. of age.Women who delay having children could be condemning their daughters to the heartbreak of infertility, warn researchers.
A new study suggests older mothers may bequeath a devastating legacy by passing on biological flaws that will make it more difficult for their own daughters to get pregnant.
Dramatic findings from a US study of almost 80 women undergoing fertility treatment shows those who failed to conceive had older mothers than those who succeeded.

Even with all the evidence, it is so hard to change the image of young mothers as inept.
ReplyDeleteAs a young mother, I daily face disdain for my choice to start a family so early. Everything points to younger mothers being healthier, but society tells us that starting before 30 is "too soon".
It's a sad side effect of the birth control movement that I wish could change.
