EBB 50 - How does maternal age affect pregnancy and birth?

Evidence Based Birth® - A podcast by Rebecca Dekker, PhD, RN - Wednesdays

Categories:

In this podcast we discuss inducing labor in someone who is 35 and older. Over time in the United States, for the past four decades, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of people who are giving birth for the first time at age 35 and older. Today, roughly one in ten first time mothers is now considered advanced maternal age. We will examine the risks and the evidence for induction in this population.
