How old were you when you had your first child?

[KylesMom409]

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 Lucas 2 years ago when I was 31. I wanted kids earlier but couldnt carry. Kept having misscarraiges. It took me 10 years, 4 surgeries, 5 misscarragaies, and about 50,000 dollars worth of medical bills to a specalist but wouldnt change a thing..We are now working on getting pg again..

I was 28 and yes I would have liked to have her a little earlier but it actually worked out a little better this way.

 Wow - there's a big time span we've got going here!

I was 20 when I had my first, and 25 with my second.

Did anyone else read Vicki Iovine's "The Girlfriend's Guide to Pregnancy"?? My friends and I all treat it like the pregnancy bible! I discovered it when I was pg with my first, and it was so helpful, funny and reassuring that I STILL give it as a gift to first time moms to be :)

I was 17 when I found out I was pregnant, 18 when I married and then had her.

 I had my first daughter right after I turned 20..My birthday was Feb 7th and I had her Feb 18th. My other daughter I had at 22.

I was 25 when I had him and after having two miscarriages. Hubby and i had be married 6 1/2 yrs. I would say it was the right timing cause God is the one who got me through my miscarriages and then gave us him. So ya.

2nd I was 27 and we had just had our third miscarriage and got pregnant two wks after we found out we had lost that one.

And 3rd I was almost 32. And we are hoping for atleast one more!
