How old is too old to have a baby?

American women are having babies older than ever before

In 1970, the average age of a first-time mother was 21

Today it’s 30.

And it’s even higher among women with college degrees.

And in expensive cities.

It is common for women over age 35 to want to have babies

And women over 40 are having children in record numbers.

Fertility rates decrease with age…
…but reproductive medicine has made it easier for women to have children later in life.

For some women over age 35, hormonal treatments and intrauterine insemination (IUI) may do the trick

For others, measures such as IVF may be necessary.

Some will require donor eggs, donor sperm, surrogacy, and other options.

There is no one right solution.

And there is no “official” maximum age to become a mother.

That’s why it’s important to work with a top reproductive medicine specialist to figure out what the right choice is for YOU

Do your research.

Talk to your doctor

And keep your options open
