[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I think you're imagining the bashing of older moms. I'm in the same boat and have experienced zero bashing. [/quote] +1! I didn't meet DH til our mid-30s and then we wrestled with infertility for years. Had my first at 44 and possibly going to have a second at 47. Never experienced any judgement at all, for age, for not BF, for letting my toddler follow her natural tendency to sleep from 11 pm - 10 am (one plus to being older in my case: we can afford a nanny so can accommodate that schedule), etc. Sure, there are harsh comments out there on the internet - omg, some of the comments on WaPo articles about infertility and older parents, good grief - but honestly? As other posters have said, no one really is thinking about it and all normal people will just be happy for you. Just as I am happy for people I know who had babies at 22! It's all just life.
