I just read a news article entitled “More Women Over 40 Giving Birth These Days.” What a wake up call! I am 32 years old and childless. Will I soon be one of the statistics in this report? Or will I have children at all? According to the CDC, 100,000 women over the age of 40 are giving birth annually. 1,512 women between the ages of 45 and 54 became first-time mothers last year! I certainly hope that I don’t become one of those statistics! I would like nothing more than to one day (and hopefully before I’m 40!) marry a wonderful man and have a child, but things sure aren’t looking encouraging. Anyway, I’m depressing myself now, so I shall say my fond farewell for the night!
