Is it crazy to make my age limit for having children 30 ?

I’m currently 25 and have a 4 year old. When I say to people if I don’t have any more kids by 30 then I’m done. I always get looked at like I’m mad or being hasty with my age limit.

Is this super unusual ? To me it makes sense as mid 30 to 40s I will have more freedom to discover myself with older children

Why are you thinking about his now? Just see how you feel in 5 years time.

You aren’t going to be held to ransom by a thought you had as to when you’d last have a baby
