[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think most women want to have babies 25-30. At least I didn’t nor did any of my relatives or friends. 25-30 was when they were getting married and buying starter homes. I think 30 is the ideal age for a first baby for first baby and you can be done by 35.

I was married in my early 20s but we waited until 30 for kids. We were working long hours at work and traveling a lot. It was great for our marriage. [/quote]

There are still a variety of ages that people are having babies.  We were both 25 years old. I knew I didn’t want a career, that I would just work part time. We had everything we needed just not top of the line like the 40 year olds at the preschool activities.  We had more money every year and bought a house at 32 years old in an expensive town.  It didn’t matter that we lived in a two room apartment when our first child was born.   We knew it was temporary.

We were still very active and didn’t get the fatigue that everyone talks about.  [b]When my husband got home from work we would go walk somewhere or get in the car. That wouldn’t have happened at 40 years old[/b], the height of his career.

There are pros and cons to both.

That's waaaaay to young to be sedentary and get out of shape. I can still run 10K marathons at a much older age. [/quote]
