1. They Tend To Age Slowly
Apparently, getting pregnant at 35 and above could serve as the fountain of youth. Studies say that advanced maternal age has the possibility to disrupt the process of aging. This simply means that late pregnancy could delay your aging process.
2. Long Life
Believe it or not, but studies also indicate that women who are pregnant at 35 and above could live longer and even healthier. This could happen given that the mother doesn't have diabetes and she remains healthy and fit throughout the pregnancy. She also must not have hypertension nor has a history of pre-term labor.
3. Stress Less
For some reason, moms who get pregnant at 35 and above are calmer than the ones who give birth at a younger age. One of the reasons behind it is that they are already mature enough to handle motherhood.
If you are someone who is expecting a baby on the way at the age of 35, you can now keep calm and relax because you will be just fine. Share this information with your loved ones and friends. Find out more about advanced maternal age by watching the video below:
