How old were you when you had your first child?

Did you want to have him/her earlier in life?  Later in life?  Or was it perfect timing?  I honestly would've liked to have my son earlier, being that he's my only child and I was 30 when I had him.

I had both my girls at 19. I kinda had no choice. It was either now or never. I was battling endometrosis so bad I was given 6 months to get pregnant. Miraculously, I got pregnant right away. Wasn't able to carry into the third trimester with either, but that's ok.

I'm glad I had them young. I don't have the energy for a baby now. LOL

I was 19, had been on my own since 16, and wasn't with a man I wanted to stay with. But after having one 10 years later I wished I had had them all while I was young. So much more energy!
