[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No.  I had my DD when I was 28, and I wish we'd waited (she wasn't planned).  I feel like we've been digging out of a financial hole ever since; I had her right after finishing grad school, and trying to afford child care while establishing a career sucked.  We've always wanted more than one child, and we still can't really afford another one, and I'm closing in on 35.  I guess the grass is always greener? :)[/quote]

Same ages, different story.  Ours was planned at 28, but we waited until she was 4 to start trying for #2 for multiple reasons.  Now, after almost 2 years, we are in the middle of fertility testing.  I'd like a second, but we may not be able to have one.  Wish we had been able to start trying for #2 earlier, but life doesn't always work out perfectly.  So, we are looking probably at fertility treatments or adoption (and my heart isn't really in treatments since one of the main culprits for possible infertility is the number pregnancy did on my body the first time around, leaving me with an autoimmune disease).

We also would have to cut back on any kind of savings in order to afford daycare.  ACK![/quote]
