[quote=Anonymous]You are not going to find many 30 year olds with multiple kids on this site. I had my first at 29 and my third at 34 and I am always the youngest in my kids’ classes (maybe not as much with my third). I am very happy that I had no issue conceiving, that I bounced back in a couple of months each time, that I hopefully won’t be an old grandmother, that my parents are still young to enjoy their grandkids, etc. At the same time, my husband is 11 years older than me (that’s the only way we could afford private school and a nice house), I am not where I would like to be (or where my peers are) in my career... There was definitely a trade off for me. I have a job and a PhD, but my friends with no kids (or that started having kids at 35 or later) are doing much better career wise. Several of my friends were not able to get pregnant or had to do IVF because they waited too long (or have only 1 child).... trade offs[/quote]
