Deep dives
Trend of Older Mothers
Women today are increasingly delaying childbirth until their 40s and even 50s, 60s, or 70s due to reasons like pursuing education and careers. The trend towards older motherhood is notable, with the concept of geriatric mothers, a term previously used for mothers over 35, being viewed differently now. There is a shift in societal attitudes towards older mothers, although some disapproval still exists, especially in certain cultures.
