The best age for the birth of the first child.
Scientific research: when is it better to become a mother?
In Soviet times it was believed that the appropriate age for the birth of a child under 25 years old, the field of 25 years of all mothers called “old-timers”. After 35 years, there was no question of the birth of a child, such mothers were condemned. Today much has changed, it is customary for us to give birth to the first child in 25-30 years. In large cities, the situation shifted towards a late birth after 35 years. First – career, then – children. The situation in developed countries is the same. Motherhood is postponed until the moment when you are consciously aware that the time has come. Until that time, future parents had already realized in society, saved up money, saw the world, acquired their own housing. But when it is better to give birth to the first child. This question was taken up by scientists and analyzed the following factors.
Until now, disputes on this issue have not abated. Dr. John Mirowski of the University of Texas conducted the first real scientific research on this topic. So, according to the expert, the optimal age for a healthy woman to become a mother is 34 years.
Arguments for this conclusion were:
- Women in 34-35 years old, are more healthy than young mothers. Somehow not convincing? Right? After all, the young look healthier. The point is that by the age of 34, women are more careful about their health, they systematically pass tests, know all their chronic diseases, so there should not be surprises.
- During pregnancy and childbirth, there is a hormonal splash that rejuvenates the female At 34-35 such a release of hormones favorably affects the body, and in 20-22 years such a release can lead to an imbalance.
- What do psychologists say? Women aged 34-35 years are characterized by stable psyche and balance. They are ready to fully appreciate another person, which affects strong relationships in the family.
In any case, the decision to accept you! Be happy!
