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.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm 48 now and I would like to have another baby. I would love to because of all the things I have learned. It would be like starting all over again. But am I too old? I'm young at heart and I would be different this time round.
My father was 64 when I was conceived, my mother 38, which was late for babies in the 1940s.
I got a very late start at fatherhood. I'm a late bloomer in general. It took me seven years to get through four years of college. I was five years away from 40 before I had a family, and I had never been around kids much at all. All of a sudden, I was around three boys all the time.
I never felt ready to have a baby until I was about 37 years old. I knew I always wanted kids someday, but I needed to be 'ready,' ya know?
My mother got pregnant with me at the age of fifteen. This was '64, and unheard of at that time.
It wasn't through choice that I became a mum at 36. I wanted to be a young mum but things never worked out for me.
I had my first baby at twenty-one.
I was 47 when I got pregnant. I'd been trying for a couple of years and thought it would never happen.
I've been wanting to have a baby since I was 2 years old - I'm destined to be a mother.
I don't see any reason why I couldn't have a child when I'm 40.
