Robyn, our on-staff nurse and medical content writer wrote a particularly interesting post titled the Rise of Pregnancy in Older Women May Have Societal Impact. The post discusses the trends in women seeking to get pregnant much later in life as women are generally putting off having kids until later in life, for a variety of reasons. At the same rate Generation Y'ers are getting married later, so what will that mean for women seeking to get pregnant in 30 years from now?
Center for Human Reproduction, a client of ours is a infertility and ivf clinic that specializes in older women pregnancy. They published a press release today about Pregnancy in Older Women stating that the medical industry and society are completely unprepared for where this growing trend is taking us. "Medicine is not ready to manage pregnancy in older women safely and society is not ready to help them cope with older motherhood.", says Dr. Norbert Gleicher from the Center for Human Reproduction. This topic has become even hotter as of late since the New Yorker magazine published a lengthy story about it, with an elderly women in a nude "Demi Moore" pose featured on the cover.
