Thanks.Congrats bro on becoming a father. And while its true that chromosomal abnormalities slightly increase after the maternal age of 35, there are many non-invasive genetic screenings available these days which mitigate that risk. If you are healthy, age shouldnt be a barrier these days to become a parent.
We were not provided with any non invasive option. So my wife had to go through "Amniocentesis" which is quite invasive and bit risky option. Doctors told us that it wasn't good option to have a baby with Down syndrome so to rule that case out Amniocentesis was necessary.
Till the result came , those were 3 nerve wrecking days.
