how old were you when you had your first baby?

I am 35 my husband is 43 we were married this year on valentines day. I have no children, my husband has a 17 yr old daughter.

We plan to have a baby, we had discussed TTC in the next few years. However over last few days I am starting to feel a bit broody so maybe we will be having a chat to bring it forward.

In preparation for when we do decide to TTC my husband has had a sperm count and all is very well there, so fingers crossed all is ok with me...

Im a young mum..... I had my youngest at 18. I turned 25 this week and having my 4th baby in 2 weeks! Celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary this week too!

Im probably still too young to regret this life choice, but we are very happy and fortunatly have a great life in our eyes!
My first was an acident, but once we had him it started a plan to have children close together and hopefully to enjoy long lives with them. Family has always been my biggest priority over career. I started work at 16 with a very good wage and regret not being around for my youngests first year while he was with a childminder. So i became a SAHM at 20 and we planned our 2nd child, and was very surprised when our 3rd child followed so quickly, especially as during my 2nd pregnancy i became disabled. I had a car accident which has caused a huge list of medical problems. Last year i was told if i wanted more children it had to be done immediatly before surgery. So here i am.
If we hadnt of had children young, i may have been in this accident and missed my chance to have children at all.

I am 28 and pregnant with our first, we wanted to sort out the house, cars etc and have our last big holiday before having kids, I would like to have a 3-4 year gap and have another but will see how this one goes first!!

Hi I was 19 with my first, 23 with second and 27 with third. My eldest is now 20! It was too young as I was married at 18, but I dont regret it at all - I'm 40 now and my youngest turns 12 this year - I'm starting to get my life back. The only drawback is I'm going to be a granny in Oct!
