Yelena, late 30 - early 40 is not too old, I'm talking about 45+. Even if u r in good health at the time you have a baby, how many years do you REALISTICALLY have when you're that healthy and active and someone who can PROVIDE care instead of need it.... As for men who make babies at 50-60+... whose wives are in their 30s... they're nothing more than a sperm donor...
