nearly 19 with number 1 and kind of nearly 22 with this one. Partner will be 30 a month after this one arrives x
SaraVO - Ha, I know exactly how you feel. I'm considered old in my culture as well. Especially for having my first. When I was 29 my relatives actually told me it was my "last year" to have babies because I would be too old later on... My family's nuts though. I'm glad DH and I did things our way. My mother also really wanted to be a parent when she was 35... Yeah... I was 16 by then... I'm not at all saying people shouldn't have kids early. I just know it wasn't for me... I was too busy raising myself and my parents to be a good mother in my 20's.
LittleDreamer - Congratulations!!! My boss had her girls at 42 and 44 respectively. No problems conceiving either time and no problems throughout either pregnancy. They're healthy and happy tweens now.
I'm high risk because of my weight I was 24 with my first - gave birth 5 days before my 25th birthday. Now I'm 26 and will be due about a month before my 27th!
