[quote=Anonymous]There are a million threads on this on this board. I had my first at 39 and second at 42. I had very healthy pregnancies and it was “easy” for me to get pregnant (got pregnant right away with DC1, only 2 MCs between 1 & 2, only tried for a year for #2). It was still very stressful TTC and the worry about my age and the potential for complications was real. Now, you said 35. 35 and 42 are very different. It’s not far off the norm and most on/gyn s wouldn’t bat an eye about it. I’m now in my mid 40s with a 3 and 6 year old and I am tired. So tired. I’ve heard people say having kids when they were older keeps them young. Maybe that’s true but I can tel you I’ve aged a lot in the last 6 years. Maybe the young part comes later. I wouldn’t trade my kids for the world, but I wish I could have had them a decade earlier. [/quote]
