Or did you mean birth risks and higher risk for some illnesses?

Hope the baby is happy, healthy and everything goes well.
At her age, the chance of miscarriage is dangerously high at 40-50%, hope it really works well for her.

Technically yes, higher age pregnancy significantly increase the risk of birth defect related diseases and it takes longer for the mother to recover, but since Jessica and Boxer are a successful and wealthy family they sure will use better medical care to lower the risk as far as possible, it's not really something to worry about these days.

No wonder Germany's birthrate is so low if people consider that once you turn 40 you've missed your chance to ever have children First they all want a carreer When they are 40 they suddenly feel they miss something in their life. But then they think 40 is too old. That is why in countries where education and career is something normal people won't achieve anyways have a healthy birthrate.

Exactly, rich and famous people don't have to live by the same rules as the rest of us.
In the US advanced maternal age is 35 btw. So this isn't normal in the US either, but it's not unheard of.
Also, in parts of Asia, advanced maternal age is 30(!).

But you arent hurting anyone: the baby you make when 40 is another baby than the one you could have had earlier

You see plenty of ordinary US mothers giving birth to a child these days.

not to mention there are people who are disabled who are much happier than people that are perfectly healthy, it's pretty irrelevent

It is also irresponsible to get pregnant when you are young, don't have steady job for both parents, poor, uninformed, uneducated, living in a country which doesn't have the best health care available and to get pregnant at all.
It's probably also irresponsible to get kids if you are so miserable that your respons to happy news is "That sucks, you should feel really guilty about this".
