[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Before 30? No. Before 35? Maybe. I think of who I was in my 20s and I would not have been as good a parent as I am now. That said, had I started at 30-33 and not 35 I would have considered going for 3. Note - I was 33 when I was married, so it wasn't a question of waiting for the right time as it was waiting for the right person.[/quote] This is similar to my experience. I didn't meet my husband until I was 30, married at 32, baby at 35. And I think I'm a better parent in my 30s than I would have been in my 20s--more patient, more flexible, more grounded, better perspective. In terms of energy, it would be nice to be younger, and maybe we would have had more than one kid, but in terms of everything else, I'm glad things worked out when they did. [/quote]
