I personally don't think I am...I'm 35 in a couple of months and I already have 2 children 7 and 12....when I have told friends, family and colleagues that me and DH are TTC I have been getting "ohhh at your age" or "well dont you think it's too much of an age gap between oldest and a baby to have another"
We were really positive about adding to our family but now I'm starting to feel a bit silly and that people have come across a bit negative. Some keep saying "well at your age it might be impossible to have another so dont get your hopes up" which I found rather rude tbh as I'd never dream of saying any of those things to a couple TTC I'd be supportive.

Ignore the idiots, you are far from "too old". I'm nearly 30 and no one I know has any kids yet, 35 is a perfectly good age to start or add to a family
