Problems caused by elder childbearing
With the progress of society and the improvement of people's health awareness, more and more couples choose to conceive and give birth at an advanced age. However, the elderly childbearing has brought a series of problems, which have a certain impact on mothers, children and the whole society.
Impact on mother's health
The elderly childbearing has caused a certain burden on the mother's health. The growth of female age will lead to the decline of reproductive system function, which may increase the risk of hypertension, diabetes and other diseases. In addition, older pregnancies also increase the incidence of multiple pregnancy, premature delivery, pregnancy complications, etc., posing a threat to the mother's health.
In order to reduce the burden of elderly childbirth on the mother's body, we should first strengthen the prenatal inspection and monitoring of elderly pregnant women. The hospital should set up a special obstetrics and gynecology department for the elderly to provide comprehensive prenatal examination and consultation services. Secondly, promote and popularize the knowledge of healthy birth, guide couples to give birth at an appropriate age, so as to reduce the burden on the mother's body.
Impact on children's development
Children born at an advanced age may face a series of physical and psychological development problems. Especially for children whose mothers are over 35 years old and pregnant, they may face problems such as low birth weight, poor nervous system development, and slow cognitive development. In addition, these children often face the risk of lack of mother care, because the mother is older, and her energy and physical strength may not be as good as those of young and healthy mothers.
In order to improve the development of older children, we should first pay attention to the health management before pregnancy. Couples preparing for pregnancy should pay attention to their health, live regularly, avoid chronic diseases as far as possible, and improve the quality of their children's birth. Secondly, the society should provide more support and help to elderly pregnant women, encourage family members to take care of their children's growth together, and ensure their nutrition and education.
Pull on social resources
The pressure of elderly childbearing on social resources cannot be ignored. As the aging of the population intensifies, the increase of elderly pregnant women will lead to a shortage of medical resources, especially in large population cities. In addition, the increase in the number of children born at an advanced age will also bring pressure on social education resources and welfare security.
In order to properly solve the pressure of social resources, we must first strengthen the allocation and management of medical resources. Hospitals can increase the number of elderly obstetrics and gynecology, and provide better services and care. Secondly, the government should increase investment in educational resources and welfare security to ensure that every child can receive fair education and welfare.
Financial burden on families
Older childbearing often requires more economic expenditure. The increase of medical expenses, education expenses and family expenditure have all caused certain pressure on the economic situation of couples. Especially for the elderly couples, continuing to provide education and life support for their children may bring great trouble to their own economic situation and retirement life.
In order to reduce the economic burden of elderly childbearing on families, couples should conduct a comprehensive family economic assessment and planning before deciding on elderly childbearing. They can seek advice and support from financial institutions to develop reasonable family financial plans. The government should also provide corresponding policies and assistance, such as providing children's education loans and low interest loans.
Summary
Older childbearing has brought a series of problems to mother's health, child development, social resources and family economy. In order to properly solve these problems, we should strengthen prenatal inspection and supervision of elderly pregnant women, strengthen health education and publicity, provide more support and help to elderly pregnant women, increase investment in medical resources, educational resources and welfare security, conduct comprehensive family economic assessment and planning before deciding to give birth to elderly couples, and seek support from financial institutions and the government.
