• There’s a myth saying about dangerous childbirth after 30. In fact, ovary age changes that reduce a chance of conception, usually happen after 40. At the age of 30 tissues elasticity can be reduced.

• That’s why frequency of breaches and colpoceles while childbirth increases. However, this happens not always. Childbirth at 30 today is not late childbirth. Modern women of this age are young, healthy and zippy. A term “age limit, late childbirth” should be deposed to 40 years.

• You should pass all “traditional” checkups and tests. This concerns all women that are preparing to become mothers. In older age – after 30 – you will also need to visit a medical geneticist before pregnancy. And after 35 you will definitely pass a water test that helps revealing a list of hereditary diseases.

• “Aged” pregnant women also should be constantly observed by therapeutist. The matter is that with age we accumulate usual, non- gynaecological problems, which can prevent normal course of pregnancy and childbirth. For example, heightened or lowered pressure, alimentary canal problems. Doctor will tell you about measures to take to have a healthy pregnancy without complications.

• The matter is that there is an optimum age for all organs’ work, including genitals. Its limits are individual for each person and are determined genetically. During a period of 30-40 years different people’s calendar age combines with biological one differently.

For example, if your propitious age is 18-38 years, then your chances to conceive easily and give birth to a baby calmly will be equally high both at 20 and 36 years. And at 18 and 40 there can appear some problems, connected with age condition.

• We repeat again, every woman has her own favorable age. For someone late childbirth will be at 35, and for another one – at 45. However, while competent preparation and pregnancy running you can avoid many problems.

     Sex. You had an awkward conversation about it with your mom with when you were 12. You formed your own opinions as a young adult. And, if you’re reading this article with any personal interest, you’ve had some recent first-hand experience. 

    Now you’re pregnant. Today, sex may seem more inviting than ever or as appealing as taking out the trash — and that may change again tomorrow. For most couples, sex will follow a meandering course of ups and downs through these nine months (and beyond). How these changes affect your relationship is entirely in your hands and, no matter what you’ve heard from your weary parent-friends, the results may be better than you imagine.

The good news

   “I think the majority of women enjoy sex even more when they’re pregnant,” says Toronto midwife Andrea Lennox. “Pregnant women have a significant increase in their natural discharge, and that lubrication can make sex quite wonderful. A lot of couples will also say that it’s liberating to not have to worry about birth control, maybe for the first time in their lives.” 

   When it comes to the emotional changes during pregnancy, David McKenzie, a certified sex therapist with a doctorate in human sexuality in Langley, BC, also sees great benefits. “In men, I’ve noticed an increase in tenderness and concern for their partners. It’s not that they were uncaring or unloving before, but a different level of nurturing will often come forth and draw a couple even closer.” 

   Diana and Brad Paulson, of Burnaby, BC, found that to be true as they navigated the romantic challenges of their first pregnancy. “We managed to maintain a healthy sex life almost right up until the week that we delivered,” Brad says. “While we weren’t nearly as spontaneous as before, we still enjoyed it and each other.”
