This is no special message from "God" imho. Any woman who continues to procreate past the age of 40 is entering high risk territory. That some women CAN become pregnant without medical intervention past 40 tells me it's natural and "meant to be" else we'd stop menstruating in our 30's.
Between the Duggars already having 18 kids and Michelle's advanced maternal age and then this catastrophe of a pregnancy, it's easy to call this a "sign" from God. I sort of think of God as "the Way Things Are" lol and on that, agree on that IDEA that this could be a "sign". If they continue to have unprotected sex they'll subject themselves to higher chances of problem pregnancies and putting Michelle's and the newest baby's lives at an ever climbing risk.
Is it the NUMBER of children or Michelle's advanced maternal age? Nope it's both
I watched DHC the other night and a 54 y/o American woman (at least fifty, not sure) went through massive medical intervention to give birth to a son. Then there are those that give birth even later.
I guess I like the fact that we have not put limits on reproductive CHOICE, instead, we've expanded them, as a society and world. I personally like that, though wouldn't dream of doing it myself even at the age of 44
. I hope for our sakes there is NEVER an artificial "limit" set on anyone's desire to reproduce. That tells me we are essentially a kind society and world. The alternative is A Brave New World and the like. In spite of the catastrophic pregnancies and the 63 year olds having twins, that is small potatoes in comparison to the alternative.
