Think if you pop out 2 - 3 kids right after high school graduation, then go to college. Kids will be out of the house when you hit 40 and you are still young enough to enjoy being an empty nester.

Agree. Should be wrapping up graduate degree at 25, not pumping out kids

Men don’t have a biological clock so 30’s are just fine. Once that child is born to these women the first thing they want to do is cut back hours or stay home. Children>Career.

Fewer Americans are having kids. And those who are having kids are having less kids. And this has been happening now for at least 3-4 generations. The result is our population, at least our American population, is heading towards collapse.

You make it sound like we are China or Russia w/our population decline. We are nowhere close. Yes we have slowed down but you're spreading fear porn.

I’m trying to think how many women have had healthy children at that age - it’s at least 10. I think it happens more often than you’re admitting and are just trying to find any way to denigrate women. Probably bc you don’t have a gf or wife, gadknot.


A very good chunk of the women in the maternity ward at our hospital are in their late 30s to early 40s. It’s an affluent area though so you can expect the age to be higher.

A healthy country can at the very least replace it’s population. The US is, but it’s from illegal immigration. Sounds like a healthy long term plan. LOL

35 plus is a geriatric pregnancy. It’s not ideal. It’s definitely a risk I would not want my wife to take especially into that 38-45 range. Increase of every disability and a risk for the mother. I would have my kids around 25-34 ideally. You have to convince women family is more important than a career and feminism is deep rooted. Most women will die alone.

Women who wait till late 30s early 40s to have a baby are selfish.

I don’t know why you’re being modded to oblivion when this is true. Also, by 35, this is statistically the bottom of the barrel for egg quality in women. They have few left, and these are the ones with the highest chance of genetic damage.

You can tell which posters are balding or less than 6’ tall by how they stick up for women

It’s an evolutionary strategy triggered by low testosterone

I know, our third was a “geriatric” pregnancy. Actually the easiest. Life isn’t ideal though. Fortunately a lot of modern medicine has helped most of our patients have pretty straightforward deliveries.

I don’t know if you’re willfully lying or just ignorant. What I do know is you’re dead wrong.

Since 2007, TFR has declined from 2.12, just above the replacement level set by demographic tradition at 2.10 births per woman, to 1.67 in 2022, leading many to speculate that the United States has now entered a sustained period of below-replacement fertility.

quote:

With low fertility, higher mortality, population aging and rising illegal immigration, it’s time for America to pay the demographic piper.

The U.S. fertility rate is now well below the replacement level of about two births per woman. The country’s fertility rate in 2021 was 1.66 births per woman or less than half the peak rate of 3.7 births per woman in the late 1950s.


LINK

It’s an existential crisis that threatens the existence of our society as we know it. Our government should be taking measures to try to reverse the downward trend. But are they? No. The government instead promotes abortion and birth control. They promote lifestyles like cross-dressing and homosexual fetishism that produces no offspring. They don’t care that our society is literally slowly dying out. And the reason they don’t care is because they plan to instead replace us.

No kidding.
People don't like facts, especially that GreenRock chick.
I will probably get banned because people complained about the literal scientific facts that I listed below.

As time goes on, that number becomes fewer and fewer. Eggs may also be of lesser quality as you age
For example, the risk of having a child with Down syndrome is around 1 in 1,480 for women at age 20. At age 40, this risk increases to 1 in 85.

Also, if a woman hits the age of 30 without kids then 50% of those women will never have kids even if they want them.

Society continues to lie to women and preach career first and family later. Life starts getting pretty lonely when you hit 40 and you don’t have a family and most women realize focusing solely on a career is not satisfying and something is missing in their life.

I'm not familiar with this stat but I'll assume this is accurate for the discussion.

Man, that really makes you think. A woman that goes to college and isn't in a relationship basically has a 7-8 year window post education to meet someone, settle down and have a family. Even less if they go to law school, medical school, grad school etc.

50% obviously still can, but that's a gamble that can seriously shape your life in a pretty small window.
