Maternity is mostly associated with young women
Abstract
Maternity is mostly associated with young women. However, nowadays, there are more and more
mature women making their in the role of mother. Maernity of women who decide to have their first
baby at the age of 35 or even later causes quite a lot of problems, which are not encountered by younger
mothers. Pregnancy alone, child delivery and later puerperium are burdened with a bigger risk for a
mother, a foetus and a child. In spite of many arguments supporting the idea of having the first baby at
younger age, more and more women put this decision off till later time.
This new trend is influenced by social, cultural and political changes taking place in our country.
Furthermore, decrease in perinatal morality of mothers and babies, modern ways of treating infertility,
modern methods of diagnosing of pathological states assure women that even at later age they will be
able to become mothers of healthy babies.
