[quote=Anonymous]The “right” age does not exist. It is relative. Everything has trade offs. I had kids at 29, 31 and 34. Not too young, not too old and yet, it was too early professionally and I missed the career boat (I think). My friend all had kids years after me and were not very understanding of my limitations at the time so I felt isolated for a time. Will I have grand children in my late 50s and 60s? I hope so… my mom was 57 when I had my first and she was a huge help. She would not be able to be present in the same way now that she is 69 (not even close) and my kids would not have the relationship they have with such important people in their lives had I had them 10 years later. Also, I got pregnant first try with all 3 of my kids. That might have not been the case had I waited. Overall, I am happy and things are great. They could have been better in some ways and worse in others had I waited or anticipated.[/quote]
