Maybe: Your risks of having a Down syndrome infant is increasing as you age, at 40-45 about 1%. Add that to a basic risk of 4% unexpected outcome at any age and your looking at 95% frequency of healthy outcome. If your health is manageable and you are ready for the extra work, it ids doable. It would be wise to discuss all the issues with your spouse and docs.

It's a factor, but..: There are may things that determine risk other than just age.For instance, was your high BP chronic or just gestational? Factors like that make a difference, especially since you're older. Need to know things about your general health, family history - the list to determine "risk" is long.You would do well to have a single visit with a Maternal-Fetal Medicine specialist who can put it all together
