37 mean I can't have a baby?!
My mom had 1 kid after 40 and both of my grandmothers had 2 kids each after 40. No Down’s syndrome.
I had my first at 33 and my last at 39. My pregnancies were so easy that I never even vomited once while pregnant, and my children are healthy and neuro-typical.

I had my last baby at age 38, and she does not have Down syndrome, nor any other chromosome disorders.

She said that if it does happen, it will definitely have down syndrome. I'm crushed! Are there any other mama's on here that are around my age with non syndrome kids?
My sil had her first at 40. At 43 had triplets now one of the triplet does has autism but none have downs
There are higher risks, but plenty of women have babies in their late 30s with no issues.
