[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you live in DC? When I had my first 16 years ago, I was by far the youngest to-be mother in my prenatal class. I was 30. [/quote] +1. When I had my first 2 years ago at 31, my OBGYN said I was one of their youngest patients; said 38 was their average. [/quote] Same! First was in DC 8 years ago and at 31 I felt like a baby myself. Now, I’m in a new city (Chicago) and feel very average, age wise. I think — and I believe the data back me up — that this is a very class-linked phenomenon with older moms being more likely to be white and UMC. In DC, that was my social group but in Chicago it’s more diverse and as such I sort of fall in the middle between the ‘first time moms at 39’ crew and the people who had their first babies in their 20s.
