I wouldn’t say it’s a definite contraindication... there will no doubt be higher risks of complications and down’s as maternal age rises, but there have been plenty of successful smoothsailing pregnancies in this age group as well. It’s not a hard and fast “no”, more of a “higher risks involved, but if you accept that, then may need closer monitoring, may need to take care of yourself more” thing. Talk to your obstetrician :)
