What is the Right Time to Have a Baby?

What is the best time to have a baby?


There is no right time to become a mum.
In the modern world of opportunities and plans to be fulfilled, there is  the ongoing question amongst women about ‘when is the best time to have a baby.’ Career, goals, plans to be fulfilled. When we see the episodes in films when a girl taking the pregnancy test, she either gets happy or bursts into tears. It’s either black, or white. In real life, it’s more complicated.

Statistics show that most women are having babies at their late 30ies, when they are both financially supportive and have their goals fulfilled in life. A close friend of mine was 28 and she had doubts whether to have a baby or not, in case when she was in a stable relationship. All the things she worried about was the financial difficulties she was going to face with her partner. When couples are supportive enough and yet ponder upon how they are going to raise the baby, it’s can be all about fears of losing your own life as far as your goals are not fulfilled yet.

Most women nowadays put their careers before motherhood. I have been discussing this issue with women in their early and late thirties who definitely agreed with me that the ‘fertility time-headline bombs’ are spooky. There was a girl who had gotten married, but the husband yet worries about having babies as the coming party season in Ibiza is waiting for them. Another has been trying to get pregnant for two years and is going to try IVF.

The surveys in recent years have shown that some women take up 5 years to think on motherhood, with a third aiming on career goals, others saving money and owning their own property. The striking thing is that in many websites life goals before motherhood are compared with those wishes before one dies. There is the sense that we need to build up our house of life – once 18 it’s time to travel to all of the continents, to experience adventure and craziness before it’s time to take the plunge.


So, when it’s the best time to have a baby? Is it really possible to plan and control this aspect of our life?


The average of women giving birth is now a year older than it was a decade ago; in 2010 it was 29 and in 2000 it was 28. The number of abortions in women between 30-34 increased to 10% between 2009 and 2011. The tendency is that nowadays women prefer to have a baby in their late 30s.
The biological reality is striking. According to Dr Magdy Asaad, women  should have babies until 35 years old, and definitely by 37. She says, that after 35 it becomes much more difficult, as the number and quality of eggs is reduced.Life expectancy for women has increased to 80-85 years, that’s why it’s difficult for women, as 40-years-old women still feel young. But it’s something different with your ovaries.  So, if circumstances allow, you should have babies in your late 20s or late 30s. Is the timing for having a baby really right? In conclusion, I would add that there is no perfect time to become a mum. Of course, the circumstances can be that you are not in a right relationship, you don’t have a good job and lack enough experience, but one thing is obvious that you won’t  always have the possibility to get pregnant.
If your financial and love relationship is supportive enough, and, most important of all, you are ready to take care of a new creature in your life, then it’s the high time to go for it.

The Wisdom of Keeping Couple Relationships Alive

Seeking for Solutions to Save a Relationship? Get your love back on track.

Lack of communication is a huge problem
between couples...
It’s rare that couples continue their relationship without ups and downs. The couple just wins if both of them can feel the existence of a problem and start building a better relationship by erasing the errors from the way. This will help the couples to bring back the love and affection, the relationship intimacy they had before the problems came forward.


The caring and successful couples know that all relationships have their ups and downs. It depends on the couple, on how efficiently they can handle the ups and downs in the relationship by keeping their love life and marriage going on. Some couples turn to family therapists to discuss and learn how to deal with everyday problematic relationship issues. Others rely on self-help books and articles, attend seminars or observe other successful couples. Regardless of the method you choose for handling the problem in your relationship, it is vital that you take a step towards a solution. In the article, you will find a few of the outstanding relationship issues between couples together with strategies to resolve those issues. 

Relationship Problem: Communication

One of the hot issues and problems between couples is the lack of communication. It’s not possible to communicate when you are watching TV or  googling in your BlackBerry. If couples do not interact enough in the sequence of time, there will appear an undesired gap between the two individuals. To avoid it, here are a few strategies to keep the communication alive between your partner and you:  
·        Make an actual appointment with each other, not just meeting when it’s a  break time or  you are just on the same path to do shopping. If you live together, put the cell-phones on vibrate and try to figure out a topic to discuss with your partner.
·        If you can’t communicate with a low voice, then go to some public place, like a public library, a restaurant where you will be embarrassed by hearing your own screaming voice while communicating.
·        Once the rules are set up in the relationship, the relationship is much organized and free of conflicts. One of those rules between couples in communication should be not to interrupt each other, and also, to avoid expressions like “you always…”, “you never…”
·        The sense of mutual respect is vital in a successful relationship. Respect should be expressed between couples in all the circumstances of life, whether they are facing seemingly unresolved issues or just daily misunderstanding.

The above mentioned is just one of the thousands of stumbles in relationships between couples. It is important for both of them to determine the existing problems and start building relationship from the start.

The opposite will result in both waste of time and money. In many gyms, they offer personal trainer services (mostly with additional fees), and if their salespeople are tough enough they will convince you to buy a package. But before you decide to choose a trainer, here are 8 tips for you to choose your personal trainer.

Before signing a contract for having a personal trainer, take time to meet him and to see whether it will be a pleasure for you to be  instructed by that person or not. His social skills may seem to be not that important, but one thing you should keep in your mind, that if you like his approach and his personality, there is the higher possibility that you will be inspired and encouraged to attend a gym by his or her company.


It is important to get a proper information about your trainer’s fitness specialization profile. Depending on the fitness levels he is specialized in and the age group of people he trains, you should give your priority to. Certainly, you wouldn’t like your trainer to train athletes when your intention is to build muscle. Another option is to contact with people he trains are used to train, to ask for an opinion.

When interviewing him, ask about his experience, like how many hours he has to train people daily. Ask about his overall experience; how many hours he worked in general as the skills in professional training comes with the experience and with dealing with different types of people.

Don’t hesitate to ask for his certificates to see if he has NPTI, ACSM, ACE, or other.

This will help your ears to rest and recover from continuous waves of music sounds.
