      This is a question for your obstetrician. In general, etanercept(Enbrel) has not been found to be hazardous to a fetus, but the studies are limited.

      I'd suggest you talk with your obstetrician as to why you are feeling weak.

            It varies, but 18-25 is ideal. As a woman begins to age, her eggs become fewer and less viable. Women past 40 have higher rates of birth defects.
