Some people don't see that as the parental death sentence you do. I have a much younger cousin with Down Syndrome and he is the objectively happiest human being I know and it is infectious.

35+ is a geriatric pregnancy with risks to the child and the mother. Rates of disabilities go up when older women have children. It’s definitely a risk I would not take.
