[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not too old.  You can do this if you want.

But, I definitely noticed a big difference between being pregnant in my 40s vs being pregnant in my 30s.  Everything about being pregnant seems to be a bit easier when you're younger.  [b]But, I got a late start because I went to graduate school, etc.,[/b] so wasn't the best option for me when I was young. I'm extremely grateful for my kids, though, and would do it all again.

There's never a good time to have kids; there's never a bad time to have kids.[/quote]

This is always such an odd justification. I graduated from college at 22, worked for a couple of years, started grad school, got married at 26, finished grad school, got a better job thanks to my new degree, and had children at 29 and 31. Also, I grew up UMC in New York and went to top universities so it isn’t like I was some small southern town sorority sister just going to college to get my mrs or something.[/quote]

Well, she said "graduate school etc." so I assume she was talking about laying a foundation for career and other things. Sometimes people don't go to grad school in their mid 20s either. [/quote]
