Psychological pressure behind the elderly childbearing
Elderly childbearing refers to women's pregnancy and childbearing at the age of 35 and above. Compared with young women, older child-bearing people face specific psychological pressure:
First of all, elderly child-bearing people may face concerns about declining fertility. With the growth of age, the quality and quantity of female eggs gradually decline, and the chance of pregnancy also decreases. Such concerns can lead to anxiety and stress.
Secondly, social expectations and judgments also have an impact on the elderly child-bearing. In the traditional concept, women should marry and have children at a younger age, and after a certain age, they will be regarded as "late marriage and late childbearing" or "leftover women". This kind of social pressure may make the elderly child-bearing people feel troubled, uneasy and self blaming.
In addition, elderly childbearing may face increased physical and pregnancy risks. As the age increases, the risk of suffering from various pregnancy complications, fetal abnormalities and delivery complications will also increase. These risks may lead to worries and fears of the elderly.
Coping with the psychological pressure of elderly childbearing
In order to cope with the psychological pressure behind the elderly childbearing, the following are some suggestions:
First of all, the elderly child-bearing people need psychological counseling. Communicating with professional psychological consultants and sharing their inner worries and anxieties can help relieve psychological pressure and increase psychological resilience.
Secondly, establish an active support system. The understanding and support of family members, friends and colleagues are crucial for the elderly childbearing. The establishment of a support system can provide emotional support and encouragement to help the elderly child-bearing people cope with difficulties.
In addition, it is also very important to actively adjust your attitude. Older child-bearing people should accept the reality, realize that their fertility may be limited, and learn to accept and adjust their expectations. Take a positive and optimistic attitude, and change their attitude towards elderly childbearing.
Social impact of elderly childbearing
Elderly childbearing not only causes psychological pressure on individuals, but also has a certain impact on society:
First of all, the demand for medical resources for elderly childbearing has increased. Because the elderly child-bearing people are prone to pregnancy risks, they may have greater demand for hospitals and doctors, and need more medical services.
Secondly, elderly childbearing also has an impact on families. Older child-bearing people may need to adjust their work and family plans to prepare for the pregnancy and raising of children. This will pose certain challenges to the family's economic situation, lifestyle and social role.
In addition, the impact of elderly childbearing on social concepts cannot be ignored. With the increase of elderly childbearing, the time limit of female childbearing in the traditional concept may gradually change, which requires the society to rethink and adjust the acceptance of late marriage and late childbearing.
Coping with the social impact of elderly childbearing
In order to cope with the social impact of elderly childbearing, the following are some suggestions:
First, strengthen the allocation of medical resources. According to the characteristics of elderly childbearing, hospitals can increase relevant equipment and professional medical staff to provide better pregnancy and childbearing services.
Secondly, society should encourage and support the elderly child-bearing. Through publicity, education and public opinion guidance, change the social concept, improve the public's awareness and acceptance of late marriage and late childbirth, and reduce the social pressure faced by the elderly.
In addition, provide more help and support measures. The government can formulate corresponding policies and regulations to provide better maternity leave, childcare services and other support for the elderly child-bearing people, and help them better cope with the challenges of childbirth.
Summary
The psychological pressure behind the elderly childbearing is mainly manifested in worries about fertility, social expectations and increased physical risks.
