Newspapers have been writing a lot about fertility and the fact that more and more women choose to start a family in their 30′s or forty’s. Women nowadays are highly likely to have a high flying career and be brooding about town trips, shoe shopping and sports autos, and far less about Mothercare, changing nappies, and pushing carts.
The average age for giving birth in the United Kingdom is going up about 2 months annually. The average age in 2007 was 29.3 years compared with 28.6 years in 2001. Statistics prove the average woman under thirty will get pregnant within the first 6 months and those in their early thirty’s may take up to and longer than 9 months. From 35 onwards it might take one year.
