The Psychological Influence of Old Childbearing on Women
Elderly childbearing refers to women giving birth at the age of 35 and above. With the development of modern society, more and more women choose to postpone childbearing, and then face the risk of elderly childbearing. However, the elderly childbearing has a series of effects on women's health. First of all, the elderly childbearing will have an important impact on women's mental health.
First of all, for many women, postponing childbearing can be due to career development, education or marital stability. However, when they decide to start giving birth at an advanced age, they may face a series of anxieties and worries. They may worry about whether they can successfully conceive, whether they will face more risks in pregnancy and childbirth, and whether they can maintain good health to meet the challenges of childcare. These concerns may lead to women's anxiety and tension during pregnancy, and may even lead to depression.
Secondly, the elderly childbearing may also have an impact on women's sense of self-worth. When women are unable to conceive as easily as when they were young or face a higher risk of pregnancy and childbirth, they may have a negative evaluation of their physical condition, leading to feelings of inferiority and self blame. This psychological pressure may further affect the relationship between women and their partners or family members, and even have a negative impact on the parent-child relationship in the process of childcare.
Finally, the elderly childbearing may bring more social pressure to women. Under some social and cultural backgrounds, women are entrusted with the important responsibility of having children. When women delay childbearing and face old childbearing, they may face doubts and incomprehension from their families, relatives, friends and society. This kind of pressure may cause women to feel anxious, guilty and lonely.
Physiological effects of elderly childbearing on women
In addition to psychological impact, the elderly childbearing also has a certain impact on women's physical health. First of all, with the growth of age, the quality and quantity of female eggs gradually decrease, leading to a decline in fertility. Although the development of modern medical technology can help some women to achieve elderly childbearing, the success rate is still low.
Secondly, the elderly childbearing will increase the risk of women in the process of pregnancy and childbirth. The study found that pregnant women over 35 years old are more likely to have complications such as pregnancy induced hypertension, gestational diabetes and premature delivery. In addition, the elderly mothers also face higher caesarean section rate and the risk of neonatal malformations.
Finally, elderly childbearing may have a long-term impact on women's physical conditions. With the growth of age, women's physical strength and immunity gradually decline, and their rehabilitation ability may be poorer than that of young people. At the same time, elderly childbearing will also increase the risk of women suffering from certain diseases (such as hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, etc.), which will have a negative impact on women's health.
The Influence of Older Childbearing on Women's Family Support
In addition to the impact on women themselves, elderly childbearing will also have an impact on women's family support. First of all, elderly childbearing may exert pressure on the relationship between women and their partners. Due to the high risk of childbirth at an advanced age, partners may worry about women's physical conditions, leading to emotional tension and quarrels. In addition, the pressure of childbearing brought by the elderly childbearing may also have an impact on the relationship between husband and wife.
Secondly, the elderly childbearing may also have an impact on the relationship between women and their relatives and friends. Women may face doubts and incomprehension from their families, relatives and friends, and even be ridiculed and criticized. In this case, women may feel isolated and disappointed, and the lack of family support has a negative impact on their psychological and emotional health.
Finally, the elderly childbearing may have an impact on the parent-child relationship of women. Due to the limitations of physical conditions, women who give birth at an advanced age may not be able to go all out to take care of their children as they did when they were young, leading to the opening of parent-child relationship. At the same time, women's physical conditions may affect their interaction and participation with children, and may have a certain impact on children's growth and development.
Summary
To sum up, elderly childbearing has an important impact on women's health. In terms of psychology, the elderly childbearing may lead to anxiety, inferiority and social pressure, which will have a negative impact on women's mental health. In terms of physiology, elderly childbearing may weaken women's fertility, increase the risk of pregnancy and childbirth, and have a long-term impact on physical conditions. In terms of family support, the elderly childbearing may have an impact on women's partnership, family friend relationship and parent-child relationship. Therefore, women should fully understand the relevant risks and impacts when considering elderly childbearing, and make wise decisions under the guidance of doctors.
