[quote=Anonymous]I had my first at 27 and my second at 31. A good friend of mine met her husband later in life than I did and had her children at 39 and 42. I remember her, referring to a family member considering having children, saying "There's no way I'd be having a baby at 42!". Yet, she did do it! She got pregnant naturally and looks about 10 years younger than she is so I'm not sure she's any more tired than I am. So much of it depends on YOU. There are way too many factors to consider that you can't list on this type of forum. As another poster pointed out, Dads do this.....my Dad as 40 when I was born. A friend my age just had a baby with her 45-year-old husband and I OFTEN see men who appear to be in their 50s at my daughter's Elementary School. Would it maybe have been easier physically to have kids earlier? Maybe. Does it matter now? No. [/quote]
