[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I was forty for my first and only and all the other moms were about my age. You’re the one in the Midwest feeling insecure. You left your people. If you want another child, have another child and don’t look for friends at playgroup.[/b][/quote] If this is true, well, it's really odd and unusual. Are you sure you didn't accidentally sign up for a grandparent group? Or did you deliberately find a play group for old moms?[/quote] In Arlington, Virginia (22207, to be specific) -- and in many of the areas the this board services -- having a baby in late 30s/early 40s is not at all weird and more normal than someone in their 20s. There was one mom at daycare drop off that at first I thought was the au pair, because she was so much younger than everyone else. I have nothing against moms of any age, but outliers are outliers.
