Well after over 20 years of IVF and a still birth, a great friend of mine gave birth to a beautiful daughter at the age of 43. So i would say its up to the individual woman concerned.

Each woman is different and go through menopause at different ages, and it's not related to their health; they should observe themselves and the signs of perimenopause... but I'm ready to be educated if I'm wrong

Look at the bright side.Scientists keep saying the planet will run out of fresh water and the greenhouse effect will be very destructive. What if childless people are sparing their kids that future?

...one also has to consider the child growing and how much time they will have with the parent(s). Dying and leaving a young child (<20,yes<20) is not nice.... I'm not saying you choose to die but you limit the amount of years you parent the child...

Age is one factor for medical reasons but there are also genetics reason that must be taken into consideration. It is also important to provide a good home for that child with enough and quality for attention and must have a plan for his/her future, like medical and school expenses. I know that we want children of our own but there are so many children with no parents than need to be taken care for.

Well, I had my first son at 38 and my second at 41... and everything went just fine!!! These days women are waiting longer and longer. Obviously there are health risks to be taken into consideration, and also the fact that the older you are, the bigger the age gap will be... If all else fails, there are so many unwanted children in the world who desperately need love and attention!
