[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is encouraging. Still, what do you think of first-time mom at 45 with 61-year-old husband?…Trying to gauge what energy levels etc are going to look like down the road…[/quote] What is your plan for parenthood? At 45 I assume a natural pregnancy isn't something you're counting on. Adoption or surrogacy can be a real energy-sapping journey, but that's not meant to dissuade the effort. As for your ages and energy levels: I'm 40 and DH is 50. We have 2 kids and while we both have what I'd consider to be above average energy levels for our ages and we're in great health, it's hard. If you're going to try for a kid I'd do so asap and assume you're only going to have one. And be prepared for how you'd manage special needs, health crises, etc.[/quote]
