Predominant age
In a modern society many women professional career often put on the first month
then."First I'll get an education, find a decent job, move up the career ladder, and then you can think about the child," - so many of our contemporaries argue. As a result, when a woman decides to finally give birth to a child, her age is often 28-35 years, and sometimes even older. Future mothers who want to give birth to a child at this age, midwives are called age-primitive.(Previously, the term "old-timers" was used., At present, as a degrading one, it was abandoned).This definition was used because the birth and pregnancy in women older than 26-28 years are somewhat different than in young women. The percentage of chromosomal anomalies in the fetus is increasing, which is due to the impact on the ovule during life of many unfavorable environmental factors, bad habits, which affects the genetic apparatus, causing mutations. It is connected with this fact that women of this age are much more likely than children in the general population to have children with Down's syndrome. In addition, the age-related primipara often have concomitant diseases of the cardiovascular system, the gastrointestinal tract, the nervous system, which does not facilitate the course of pregnancy. Often there are gestosis, threats of miscarriage and other pathologies. During labor, obstetricians fear the weakness of labor, premature detachment of placenta-
, hypoxic fetal conditions. In many cases, preference is given to cesarean section so as not to endanger the life of the child. In addition, the birth canal at this age begin to lose elasticity, which threatens in childbirth with ruptures and injuries to the mother and fetus.
But in late pregnancy there are pluses, mostly they concern the child. After all at this age, women are much more responsible about their desire to have an infant than young mothers. They take good care of the child, although they often pamper him too often. Yes, and in the psychological sense, they can give a lot more to the baby.
