I got married late in life and one of the rude awakenings I learned was the biological clock was very real. We struggled having kids and it was incredibly traumatic for my wife. Long story short. She gave up her career. Struggled financially. We finally got our miracle baby. Being an older parent has its pros and cons. Some say older fathers have a greater risk of passing damaged genes while the mothers’egg is formed at birth? I don’t know. I am not a doctor. Our miracle baby had a medical scare which resulted in us getting an emergency baptism for him before scheduled surgery. In the end we all survived. As an older parent I like to think I am more appreciative of my family.
