Older women who are pregnant have unique potential problems. These include a higher likelihood of chronic illness that impacts the pregnancy; obstetrical complications such as vaginal bleeding, preeclampsia, multiple gestation, gestational diabetes, preterm labor, dysfunctional labor, and cesarean birth; and increased incidence of Down syndrome, for which genetic screening should be offered.
