A 2007 study found that when teen parents stay in school after being pregnant, they have a better chance of graduating high school. [36] In 2016, less than 2% of teen moms earn a college degree by age 30. [14] Many of these programs offer on-campus childcare.

The mean age at childbearing indicates the age of a woman at their childbearing events, if women were subject throughout their lives to the age-specific fertility rates observed in that given year. [1] In countries with very high fertility rates women can have their first child at a much younger age than the mean age at childbearing.
The mother's age is determined by the easily verified date when the pregnancy ends, not by the estimated date of conception. [20] Consequently, the statistics do not include pregnancies that began at age 19, but that ended on or after the woman's 20th birthday. [ 20 ]
In the U.S., we’re delaying pregnancy even longer (the average age for a first-time mom has increased from 25.6 years old in 2011 to 27.3 years old in 2021), and the number of women giving birth ...
Menopause typically occurs between 44 and 58 years of age. [8] DNA testing is rarely carried out to confirm claims of maternity at advanced ages, but in one large study, among 12,549 African and Middle Eastern immigrant mothers, confirmed by DNA testing, only two mothers were found to be older than fifty; the oldest mother being 52.1 years at conception (and the youngest mother 10.7 years old).
New guidelines set by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists emphasize that pregnancy risks should be characterized in five-year age groups—like ages 35–40, 40–44, et cetera ...
Statistical analysis showed that the women in the 27–29 age group had significantly less chance on average of becoming pregnant than did the 19- to 26-year-olds. Pregnancy rates did not change notably between the 27–29 age group and the 30–34 age group, but dropped significantly for the 35–39 age group. [14]
