44woman,husband56,is it good time to have child
For me at this age,i really dont want,but he thinks child will bring him happiness,what should i do?
Answer:I don't think 44 is too old to have a child at all. But your husband at 56 should consider that you may be left alone to raise this child to adulthood. However, if you are both healthy and feel you can handle it, go for it. There are many families with older parents these days.
Most importantly you BOTH have to want this.
Maybe think about adoption, have children at latter ages can be difficult and dangerous for both mother and child.
Let him have the child.
Personally I think it's too late..adopt.
You do have a higer risk of birth defects, but most important is that YOU DONT WANT TO!
You can always adopt a child or two or more. There are many chilldren waiting for homes.
adopt a child its too late to have one at ur age
You should not have a child unless you know YOU want a child. If you concern is just about your age, don't let age get in the way of your happiness. A friend of mine just delivered a healthy baby at age 42.
At you age you will be a higher risk pregnancy, but you've got options. Don't be afraid to consult your doctor on this! He/she can evaluate and tell you how your body will handle it. After you talk to your doctor if you decide not to try a pregnancy, you and your husband can try fostering children. That can bring as much happiness as having your own, just in a different way. Or you can even adopt if you and your husband chose.
