Fertility Concept of the Elderly Maternal Women
With the development of society and the improvement of economic level, more and more women choose to marry late and have children late, many of whom are elderly mothers. The elderly parturient women refer to women over 35 years old. Due to some physiological changes and potential health risks, their fertility concept is different from that of young parturient women. In this paper, we will elaborate the childbearing concept of the elderly childbearing mothers from four aspects: childbearing motivation, physical condition, medical choice and family support.
1、 Fertility motivation
There are a variety of birth motivations for elderly mothers. On the one hand, they are eager to inherit their blood, hoping to continue their family and genes. On the other hand, with the change of society, women have more and more opportunities to pursue career development. Many elderly mothers who have given birth first established their careers and then considered the issue of childbirth. These women may have stabilized their economic and social status, and the conditions for raising children are relatively good, so they have confidence and determination to meet the challenge of elder childbearing.
In addition, some elderly mothers who have given birth also have unique life experiences. They may have delayed giving birth for various reasons, such as divorce, remarriage, widowhood, etc. These life experiences also affect their attitudes towards giving birth. Therefore, the fertility motivation of the elderly maternity mothers is not only to meet the biological needs, but also closely related to the social environment and individual experience.
2、 Physical condition
With the growth of age, women's fertility is gradually declining, and the physical condition of elderly mothers who have given birth has become an important influencing factor of fertility concept. For them, some physical changes and potential risks need to be carefully considered. For example, older mothers who give birth are more likely to have fetal chromosomal abnormalities, increasing the risk of infants suffering from congenital diseases. In addition, due to different physical conditions, older pregnant women may be more likely to have some complications during pregnancy, such as hypertension, diabetes, etc.
However, even in the face of these risks, many elderly pregnant women are still willing to take risks, which shows that their willingness and desire for childbirth are so strong. In this case, they will pay more attention to their own health and actively take health care measures, such as regular physical examination, reasonable diet, moderate exercise, etc., to minimize the adverse effects.
3、 Medical options
It is very important for the elderly mothers to choose the appropriate medical institutions and medical methods. Elderly pregnant women usually choose hospitals with rich experience, advanced equipment and complete professional teams for pregnancy management and delivery to ensure the safety of themselves and the fetus. In China, there are some famous medical institutions, such as Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Shanghai Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital and so on, which provide all-round services for elderly mothers.
In addition to choosing medical institutions, elderly maternity mothers will also choose their own medical methods according to their own needs. For example, some people may choose IVF technology to increase the success rate; Some people may choose to accept drug assisted reproduction, such as ovulation promoting drugs, artificial insemination, etc. Behind these medical choices are the knowledge of their own bodies and the trust in medical technology of the elderly maternity mothers.
4、 Family support
The family support of the elderly parturient women plays an important role in the concept of fertility. The understanding and support of their families can provide them with spiritual support and help them overcome their discomfort and difficulties during pregnancy. It is also important that the elderly mothers who give birth also need reasonable arrangements and care in life to ensure their own health and the health of the fetus.
Some elderly pregnant women may also face family and professional pressure, and need to make a balance in the concept of fertility. For example, they may need to balance the time spent caring for children with the need for work, or consider whether they need additional financial support. The importance of family support makes it necessary for the elderly pregnant women to fully communicate with their families and work together to develop appropriate programs in their childbearing decisions.
Summary
The childbearing concept of the elderly child-bearing mothers is affected by many factors, including child-bearing motivation, physical condition, medical choice and family support. Although faced with some physical and risk problems, the elderly pregnant women usually have a strong desire to have children, hoping to continue their family and genes. When choosing medical institutions and medical methods, they will consider their own needs and safety. In addition, family support is also crucial for their reproductive decision-making, and they need to fully communicate and consult with their families. Therefore, understanding the childbearing concept of the elderly childbearing mothers will help us to pay more attention to and support their childbearing decisions.
