Good Luck.
A top expert has said women should have babies they are 35 years old. Professor Mary Herbert the UK's University Newcastle said the age of 35 is like when the "clock strikes 12". She said that that age, it is riskier a woman to become pregnant. She added that it was difficult treatment to work as women got older. Professor Herbert gave doctors and nurses a message a speech at the British Science Festival. She said: "Perhaps the most important message to give is that the best cure all is to have your babies this clock strikes 12." She added: "I would be getting worried my daughter if she hadn't had a child 35."

Many women these days are choosing to put having a baby they are older. One of the biggest reasons for this is that women do not want to interrupt their career. Women are also marrying or settling down a later age. Professor Herbert said society needed to think how to help women have babies a younger age. She said: "We need to understand what the barriers are to women having their children early." Childcare expert Belinda Phipps agreed Professor Herbert. She said: "You can't always have babies to order. If you want to have a partner and a secure place to live, you don't necessarily get that all done the time you are 32. The right man doesn't always just come ."
