4. I guess I didn't qualify as "geriatric."

I was "only" 35 when my daughter was born, but even that was enough to get me labeled an "elderly primapara," a designation I did NOT appreciate.

It's high time the medical profession stopped labeling women as decrepit old fossils for giving birth past some approved age. Yes, certain risks do increase with age, but those can be managed without using insulting terminology.
