Many women are delaying childbearing into their later reproductive years for various reasons. Pregnancies in women aged >35 years are considered Advanced Maternal Age (AMA) and they are at risk of both obstetric complications and interventions. Earlier the AMA were termed as "elderly primips", "elderly or older moms", "elderly multips", "delayed pregnancies", or "late maternal age". The risks of AMA is more while comparing with its minimal distinct advantages. The risks for specific prenatal concerns include fetal loss, chromosome anomalies, multiple births, maternal medical risks like hypertension, pre-gestational diabetes, gestational diabetes and complications in labour and birth are placenta previa, caesarean birth, preterm and very preterm birth, placental abruption and low birth weight. Pregnancy after age 35 can be emotionally challenging. Preconception care and preparation for parenting are essential. The trend of increasing advanced maternal age requires unique care and implications from service providers and the health care system. The Nurse/Midwifes place an important role in all these aspects.Keywords

Follicles of the ovary are the basic unit of female reproductive biology. They are usually round and contain a single egg or ovum. Normal ovarian volume in the menstruating females is 5-15 mL, with an approximate mean of 10 ml. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the leading cause of menstrual irregularities and hyperandrogenism in adolescents. In addition, it is the most common hormonal disorder in obesity and one of the most common causes of infertility in women. Although it was traditionally thought to be a problem of adulthood, it is now known that its onset takes place in childhood. It should be considered in any adolescent with hirsutism, persistent acne, dysfunctional uterine bleeding and/or obesity.- Breast Crawl

A baby is born with many instinctive abilities which enable the newborn to perform the 'Breast Crawl'. With the innate abilities the infant come into life like programmed computer chip with the set of instructions. It appears that young humans, like other baby mammals, know how to find their mother's breast (Klaus and Kennel, 2001). Breast Crawl is associated with a variety of sensory, central, motor and neuro-endocrine components, all directly or indirectly helping the baby to move and facilitate survival in the new world. The Breast Crawl was originally described in 1987 by Dr. Ann-Marie Widstrom, Dr. Anna-Berit Ransjo- Arvidson, Dr. Kyllike Christensson, Ms. Ann-Sofi Matthiesen, Dr.Jan Winberg and Dr. Kerstin Uvnas-Moberg from Karolina Institute (Sweden).- Psychological Wellbeing in Pregnancy
