Generally there is NO such age at which it is ABSOLUTELY SAFE to conceive :)
Now practically however if you are conceiving for the first time at the age of 35, you are pushing the limits of safety and risks are higher. Consult your Gynaecologist for advice and counselling :)

You should be just fine. They will do extra testing to make sure everyting is going well. I know quite a few women who gave birth after 35 who have healthy children. I wish you the best of luck, you may want to make an appointment with you ob/gyn to see if he/she says you are in good condition for having a child.

Absolutely! The average age for a first time pregnancy is now around 30 years old. And with all the genetic testing that is done by an ob/gyn...any extra concerns you have will be properly managed.

My littlest one was born 3 weeks before I turned 35 and the only problem I had was gestational diabetes, which was controlled with diet. And she is perfectly healthy.
The only thing is at the of 35 or older they insist on doing amniocentisis on you.

It depends on your general health condition and your previous experiences of conceiving, pregnancy and child birth.
Check with your GP.
I conceived my second child when I was 34.

Why wouldn't it be? Unless you're 'high risk' , e.g. hypertension, diabetes, etc., it is perfectly safe to conceive even at the age of 50.

My mom had my brother at age 38 and she did well with her pregnancy and my brother was healthly.
I think it is fine but if you fell worried then talk with your doctor.
Best of luck!!!
