[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve been acutely aware of the dangers of infertility past 35 and wanted to procreate earlier but it never quite worked out logistically. Finally we are ready to TTC but I’m turning 35. I’m very depressed. [/quote] It is what it is…just go for it! I think trying to start a family at 35 is the most DC thing ever. I read somewhere that the median age of mothers delivering babies at Sibley is 38 years old. You’re in good company. I had my two kids in my early 40s and FWIW have never felt much older than the other moms. Maybe on average I’m 5 yrs older…but the rare mom in her 20s is far more unusual than my age. Would I have rather had mine younger? Looking back I think being your current age would have been perfect. Don’t let DCUM get you down. Best of luck!! [/quote]
