[quote=Anonymous]Finished college and grad school and had my first baby at 27 in the DC area. I LOVED being a young mom. Most of my friends in the area are on the older side and had their kids mid-30s, but I have younger friends from work. The best part is having a ton of energy to run and keep up with them and being able to cope with the lack of sleep and still function at work. I think it's all about having the situation that you think will work for you. I wanted my parents to enjoy being young grandparents and we can all travel together and do fun outdoor activities. I have one friend in my running group who had a baby at 40 and had to go the night nurse/nanny route to compensate for the lack of energy/career, but every person is different and I think it's hard to generalize based on situations. In Mclean, I was always assumed to be the nanny at the mommy and me classes, but once you introduce yourself and are friendly, it's NBD. [/quote]
