[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had mine at 36 and 39. I was lucky in that I was able to get pregnant very easily both times. It's been hard, but only in that DH and I both work full time, which would have been an issue 10 years ago, too. Personally, because I've been with my employer for 15 years and am in a senior position, I have more flexibility than I probably would have 10 years ago (less people to impress, my bosses know I'm dedicated). I will say that I am DEFINITELY more tired than I would have been if I had my kids in my 20s, but I also am able to afford them now! Daycare costs so much and we can easily afford the cost of daycare + school aftercare + extracurriculars + summer camp. 10+ years ago, DH and I were making half of what we make now, I don't know how we would have done it!![/quote] Me again - the three year age difference is GREAT. I didn't want two in diapers at the same time![/quote]
