Elderly childbearing refers to women having children at the age of 35 or above, or even later. In China, the laws and regulations on elder childbearing mainly include the Marriage Law and the Family Planning Law. According to the Marriage Law, any husband and wife have the right to procreate and the freedom to choose to procreate. The State encourages women to give birth and give birth, and improves the obstetric medical conditions and service quality of women of childbearing age.

In China, hospitals of all sizes have obstetrics departments to provide high-quality health care during pregnancy, production services and post natal rehabilitation. Some large hospitals have also set up special maternity clinics for the elderly to provide comprehensive consultation and inspection for the elderly pregnant women.
With the support of medical institutions, the elderly pregnant women can receive such examinations as ECG, ultrasound, blood routine test, amniocentesis, etc. to help understand the development of the fetus and the health of the mother. At the same time, doctors will also formulate appropriate pregnancy management plans according to the actual situation to ensure the health of pregnant women and fetuses.
In addition, some hospitals also provide fertility education courses to help older pregnant women understand the precautions before, during and after childbirth, and enhance their self-management ability. With the support of medical institutions, older pregnant women can spend the whole pregnancy more comfortably.
