To the mother, swelling feet, high blood pressure, myocardial infarction, stroke. To the baby, genetic abnormality is more likely when the mother is older. Health these days tends to be better than in the past. So as long as you have prenatal care, you have a strong likely hood of a healthy baby and mother.

Well hundreds of years ago people only lived to the age of 35 so majority of women ( especially in Asian countries) were to be married right after puberty when there most likely to cocieve. They did this to make sure a healthy fetus and because people didnt live very long. But today people live long and healthy lives because of medical advnces. My mom was 35 when i was born and 40 for my sister. It mostly depends on genes, physical health, race, etc. Women that entered puberty early have a greater chance of having bad offspring and for something bad to happen during puberty. Also it is more difficult for women over 40 to conceive because of old age. There is also an increased chance for the offspring to have birthdefects. Hope that answers your question :D
