In recent years, the average age of first-time motherhood has been steadily increasing, with women now starting their journey into motherhood at an average age of 27.5 years old. The median age of motherhood has also reached 30, indicating that half of all women who become mothers do so at age 30 or later. This shift in the age of motherhood has important implications for women’s sexual and reproductive health.
As women enter their 30s, many begin to think about fertility and pregnancy. Planning for pregnancy includes starting prenatal vitamins before attempting to conceive and establishing a relationship with an OBGYN to address any health concerns. There are many resources available to help women prioritize their health during pre-conception and prenatal care. It’s also crucial to be aware of the risks of perinatal and postpartum depression and anxiety, which affect a significant number of women.
Pregnancy can also serve as a window into future cardiovascular health for women. As women age into their 30s, the risk of pregnancy complications such as gestational diabetes, preterm birth, preeclampsia, and other hypertensive disorders increases. It’s important for women in their 30s to be proactive about their sexual and reproductive health to ensure a healthy future for themselves and their families.
