[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had our singleton at 36 and it's been great (although I know lots of other timings are great for others). Kid will graduate college about a year before we are ready to retire which to me seems like good timing. Good luck! There are plenty of good reasons to postpone having children but there are also ways of making it work.[/quote] +1 exactly. I like that I had a fulfilling career and could then stay home and make that my new career (no mommy wars, please, just stating what worked for me). I am more patient and appreciative of DD because it took us five years of trying to have her. We have means and maturity, and we’ll still (hopefully) have many young-enough years to travel and enjoy ourselves when she’s in college. Kind of the best of both worlds IMO. I won’t be a young grandma, though, and I could see that being a sadness if my own child waits to have kids until we are quite old. [/quote]
