Default Re: Mens age and increase in miscarriage risk

Have just been hearing about this on the lunchtime news. It is something we should bear in mind. However, at the end of the day - it is up to couples to decide when they want children and if they accept the risks then who are we to say otherwise.

I know many women who have had babies in there 40's without any problems and those in their 20's who have, so I personally find statistics like this a bit of a mute point.

You can make statistics say pretty much whatever you like...baffle 'em with bullshit

Mr Dory? THE Mr Dory ? the one that irons?

Quite, another statistic to make people worry - why can't stats be saved for the things that REALLY matter?
