35+ age or weeks??

I thought this board was for pregnant women age 35+? Is it spouses to be for those 35 weeks along or more instead?

Its by age. If it were by weeks then the entire 1st trimester would be cut out. Moms over 35 have high risk issues that its beneficial to be able to relate to other moms going through the same thing.

I thought it was weeks too but then I thought about why would they start at 18-24 instead of 24 and under giving the fact that we don't start pregnancy at 18 weeks

It's actually by age, thought there is ongoing confusion.  One of the site moderators made the below post some time ago.

I posted a question here because I know that women here are more experienced about labor/pregnancy than the women my age(18 or younger). I'm a first time mommy and I have no idea what to expect. In my opinion I don't think it really matters because we are all here for the same reason which is being pregnant.
