how old when you had your first child?

newcreature · Aug 13, 2006

I was 21 with my first, 22 (almost 23) with my second, and 24 with my third.

All the women at work tell me that they wish they would have waited until their mid-30s (or talk about how much easier it was for them at that age), and recommend to me to wait until then - so you are SO not old!!!!

I was 34 (DS was born 6 weeks before my 35th birthday). I was 36 + 4 months when DD was born. I'm glad I waited but I wish I had more energy...I just can't keep up somedays!

My best friend has two children. She had the first when she was 21 and waited 10 years before she had the second at 31. She has said on many occasions that the level of energy she has now for this child is much less than her energy level with the first. On the bright side however, she says that she is more patient now than she was when she was in her 20's.

I always said I would be 25 and I was 25 Oct 28 and on Nov 29 she was born!

I was 22 when I had Joshua.

19 for my first. On a selfish note, I think that completely reshaped and redirected my life (in a good way). I hate to think where I'd be at if I didn't have the impetus of a dependent child to get me off welfare, into work, etc.

First child WITH a husband? 29.

I'm 20, and due in 9 days!

momofonebaybe · Aug 14, 2006

sarah2582ben · Aug 15, 2006

I was 51 when my wife, then 26, gave birth to Michele. And that kid gets better every day. So does her mother!

I doubt I'll have a child before I'm 29 - think that's a bit more sensible...

Please be careful how you word statements like that Sasch...It could be taken by someone that to try before age 29 is ridiculous
