Pierce Frye Duke University Medical Center Pregnancy after 30 or 35 can be safe with proper medical supervi sion, says a Duke University Medical Center obstetrician and and gynecologist. "Of course, when you get down to it, it's more risky to have a baby than not to have one," said Dr. Stanley Gall, professor of obstetrics and gynecology and director of maternal and fetal medicine. "But the chances of mortality have declined dramatically. In 1981, there were 16 maternal deaths in North Carolina and 85,000 deliveries. "For pregnancy at 35 or 40 ver sus 20 or 22, the important thing is state of health," he added. "If a woman is healthy, she can pro bably tolerate pregnancy well," he said. Gall advises that a woman devise a "game plan" with her physician if she's planning a pregnancy at age 35 or older. Before a woman gets pregnant, she should have a medical evalua tion, he said. Many things need to be done before pregnancy he add ed, such as vaccination for Ger man measles or getting diabetes under control. "Women who are overweight and pregnant are more likely to suffer from high blood pressure and diabetes," he added. The best time to reach the pro per weight is several months before conception, he said. Women who are underweight also have a greater risk of certain problems, sucha as anemia and postpartum infection. Gall also advises women to stop smoking and using alcohol and other drugs prior to conception. Gall said that caffeine is not harmful to the fetus under or dinary circumstances. Health Hints As a woman reaches age 35, she has an increased risk of having a child with Down's Syndrome, commonly known as mongolism. "Between the age of 30 and 34. women have a chance of one in 643 of having a child with a chromosomal abnormality and a one in 290 chance of having a baby with Down's Syndrome. The risks increase each year until by age 45 the risk of chromosomal abnormality is one in 20 and of Down's Syndrome, one in 32." But the good news is that Down's Syndrome, and other chromosomal defects can be detected through amniocentesis. Gall said. With this technique, cells drawn from the amniotic fluid around the fetus can be analyzed. Gall added that amniocentesis cannot pick up heart defects, such as cleft lip or club foot. Older women are also more like ly to have twins. The probability from four in 1.000 for mothers at age 20 to 14 in 1,000 at age 39. Gall suggests that a woman plan to eat a nutritious diet, high in pro tein, during pregnancy. She should plan to gain 1/2 to 3/4 pound per week for a total of approximately 25 pounds, and she should not gain more than 39 pounds, he said. MYRTLE BEACH, S.C.
