[quote=Anonymous]First and only at 41. It was an easy transition because I'd had decades to prepare for it and do all of the things I could potentially miss out on after kids. I had 20 years in a "big" career, traveled to dozens of countries, moved a lot, dated a lot, did a lot of soul seeking, therapy, and spiritual work. All the hobbies. There was basically nothing left on my list but becoming a parent. Then a long fertility journey. I just felt so damn lucky to get to the parenting part. And because I have an only, now that she's five, I don't feel like I've given up much? We once again travel a lot, I'm doing work I really love, I have pleny of childcare and I (most of the time) really enjoy my kid. I think if I'd become a parent in my 20s or 30s at least for me personally I would have always been a bit jealous of what I was missing out on.[/quote]
