i remember seeing something 'of that ilk' on my pregnancy card from my first one when i was about 24,, and asking what " -- ? --- primigravida" meant ,, answer 'just means you're older than than most first time mothers'.... can't remember the ? word now though , it wasn't geriatric, might have been 'elderly' .

24 !

It means first pregnancy. I was 27, and my second 2 days before my 30th birthday!
