I'm curious to know at what age all the ladies here started a family, and how many kids you have or plan to have. ?? Seems people are waiting a lot longer these days.
Well i am 26 years old, happily married have three adorable sons. My eldest son is six year old. I had my first baby when i was 20. I am happy and satisfied with my sons. Some of my in laws insist that i should have a daughter but to me my boys are best part of my life. God bless me with the excelent children. I am grateful. They are source of my strength and i get plenty of inspiration from them.
I got married when i was 18. Seems a bit young actualy i was in my 3rd year. I didnt completed my graduation than. But my husband is so caring that i completed my gradution and masters after i got married. I fact i did my masters when my second son was 2.5 years old.
Now I'm 32yo I wish I started younger. I see my sister with her three girls and their relationship is fantastic (not to say it can't when older) We kept putting it off because we like the lifestyle, then health issues put us back. Maybe this year ! 3 enough for you Mary? or you plan on having some more
People seem to wait longer now. My daughter was 33 when she had the grand baby. But it took a while for her to get married. Don't wait too long! The older you get the less energy you'll have to look after them, plus fertility starts to go down after age 30. Those drug companies pushing all those birth control pills don't want women to know that. Throw the birth control away and make babies while you can because my daughter had the 1 child and has not been able to get pregnant since.
I would have started roughly 4 years ago but long story (health issues) not related to fertility either. I would like 4 but I guess it's a little hard under the circumstances. I was thinking the exact same thing, how tired you'd get chasing around after little ones
I was 19 when I got married. That was almost 8 years ago. I don't have children yet, but to be honest I don't want any. They're too much responsibility, and I'm lazy!
Yes Three is enough for me. God Blessed me with the best babies. I love them they love me and we cherish each moment we spend together. I wish God Bless you with children. To me my sons complete me. They are the best part of me and my personality. Its realy hard for me to realy express my love for them in words. I can keep on and on when it comes to my family
Yes i agree when you wait for the right time sometimes it gets hard. Thanks God I bacame a mother early i seems we are growing together. My youngest son keep me on my toes. He is the naughtiest of them. He is a tough guy to please. But in the end i am the mother and knows hundred ways to put a smile on his face.
Thanks for sharing your wisdom. I also suggest never wait too long ar things might become complicated. I am so glad to see replies from you girls. I thought i was the only one to reply to this intresting thread. Glad to see different opinions.
I wish I started young too, it's interesting hearing how people cope with children in different age groups. Let's hope I have the energy when the time comes
Just at legal adult age. I've lost two husbands to death and two husbands to divorce. NO MORE MARRIAGE, NO MORE KIDS!
does eveyone have a baby before even settling financially sound in life I think age between 18-24 is very less and majority are even students at this age.
yeah, women have the tendency to delay the moment of having a child...there are subjective and also objective reasons for this. for example, my wife is 31 and we're going to have a baby boy in a few months
Congratulations it must be very exciting ! I've been told over and over again: "you can never have enough money for children" so just do it
