[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. I’m 44 and surfing DCUM while traveling back from college visits with my oldest DC. When I am 54, my kids will be 24 and 26, and I’ll be 5-8 years away from federal retirement.  And will be done raising kids, paying for kids colleges, etc.  So mind blown at the thought of starting over with a new baby then.

But God Bless and to each her own. If this is what she wants and the baby was healthy, that’s what matters. It’s not what I would choose, but if it’s what she wants, congrats.  The baby will have a younger father, younger siblings and presumably plenty of money in the household for childcare help.

BTW— I also think two 2 year olds and pregnant at 45 is more nuts than have a singleton in your 50s.   [b]I did a 2 year  old and new born in my late 20s, and it was not for the faint of heart.[/b]  I actually know 2 families who had twins (one naturally, one IVF) followed less than 2 years later by an oops baby. Both marriages had ended in very ugly divorced within 5 years. Likely would have ended sooner, but both parents were too exhausted to file.  3 under 2 or 3 under 3 is hard at any age— let along mid 40s. [/quote]

i had a 2 year old and a newborn at 41 and it was no biggie (and have recently added another baby to boot). some people are just  more resourceful/cope better with small children.[/quote]

Not that PP but some people have easier babies.  My own newborns were up every 2 hrs.  They both had colic to some degree.  And they were both extremely active toddlers - climbers too.  I had 2 under 3 at the age of 36 and it was exhausting.  A third would have done me in, lol.

Your kids were probably of the variety who slept through the night from the day they came home from the hospital and had to be woken up to feed. They were probably toddlers that were happy to sit playing with tablets and looking at board books and observing the world around them.  I've seen content, laid back babies like that.  [/quote]
