If you're having a baby and you're 35 or older, congratulations, you are of "advanced maternal age." You're in for a lot more testing at your OB appointments. Dr. Bassam Rimawi from WakeMed discusses advanced maternal age. There are risks, and rewards, but should the label still exist if women are having babies at a later age in general?

Sarah Has Questions
When it comes to life, wellness, health and medicine, we all have questions. Sarah King is not afraid to ask ANYTHING.
Is THIS normal? Is THAT a problem I should see a doctor about?
What can I do RIGHT NOW to keep fill in the blank from happening in the future?
Sarah King has questions, but instead of a 10-minute doctor’s appointment where she comes away without answers, she gets to sit down with world-class physicians for candid conversations. And she’s not afraid to ask anything! No topic is off limits from sex, infertility and menopause to mental health, exercise and "Do I really need probiotics?” Doctors from WakeMed in Raleigh, NC answer her questions...ALL of her questions!
Sarah has questions, and admit it, you do too! Sarah Has Questions is produced by MIX 101.5 in Raleigh, NC.
