[quote=Anonymous]My grandmothers had my parents at 36 and 41 - this was in the 1930s and '40s. As a PP mentioned, it was pretty standard to have kids until menopause kicked in. I had my DC at 36 (on par for my family history!); DH was even older. I agree with others that we are in a better place financially, maturity-wise, etc, and frankly, we don't feel "old". One of the benefits of living in this area is that there are plenty of others who have kids later, so it's really not an oddity. Whatever route you end up taking to grow your family, don't feel age guilt - you're providing a loving home to children, however you become parents, and that's all that matters.[/quote]
