Listen, I had two kids - one when I was 40, one when I was 45. I breastfed for one year, which means I was breastfeeding four years ago. I'm going to move from giving birth to menopause without really realising.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm enjoying my life, post-menopause, so much. It's just so great to grow into yourself, and not be bothered with all that tyranny of biology.
I never thought I was going to have children. I just thought after 45, that was it.
Menopause is your return to where you were before, when your hormone levels are the same as a pre-adolescent girl's.
At 41 and a half weeks pregnant, I started to have second thoughts about becoming a mother.
I was 47 when I got pregnant. I'd been trying for a couple of years and thought it would never happen.
I was 38 years old when we started trying to have a baby. I thought it would be no problem, but the 3 years it took us was the most difficult period of my life.
I certainly hope I'm not still answering child-star questions by the time I reach menopause.
I breastfed both my kids for two years so, you know it was very tiring emotionally and physically.
It was an odd coincidence that my career took off the same decade as having babies. I often wished it had been different, that I had my big career bump in my thirties and my babies in my forties or vice versa.
I had a bit of a male menopause. It started at the age of 18 and continued until I was 45.
