I've not been on here long and I'm just curious as to what age most people are on here..

I'm 28 and I've been actively using mumsnet for about 2 months

Don't answer if you don't want to

30 now, joined when I was 19 and pregnant (and terrified!).

I still speak to many of the people from the antenatal threads I was on ❤️

I'm 34 and I've been using MN for 10 years and 10 months

Joined once I found out I was pregnant with DS 🫡

It has been an invaluable tool over the years, for many things

Back in the days when there were Xmas Do's in London and Manchester. I went to the Manchester one, it was brilliant.

12 years! I don’t think I actually posted anything when I was 13 though. I have a few different usernames.

I was about to answer this in good fait but seeing as the OP's post is their first post, not so much.

Why is that? Is there a thing about first posts being dodgy?

I'm just turned 40, and have been on here since about 2008, so mid-20s.

Become a much more regular user over the past I'd say 2 years though. Prior to that I had long gaps when I wouldn't be on at all. I'm talking years.

Basically yes, though it didn't used to be that way.

WinterFrog · 14/10/2024 07:59

Late 50s. On and off for about 7 years. I enjoy the way it offers an insight into the way other people think. And on the whole it is very supportive though I try to avoid AIBU if I'm feeling fragile!

smellsfishy · 14/10/2024 08:05

I'm 51, been here 20 years Shock

user50and · 14/10/2024 08:12

52 and joined when pregnant with my first in 2004

TwistedSisters · 14/10/2024 08:17

34 and been here since 2017 when I had my first.

Oganesson118 · 14/10/2024 08:19

38, I joined when I was 32 and DD was about 1 but I dipped in and out for years. Been a more regular user for maybe the last year or so.

SaltyandSweet · 14/10/2024 10:12

49 (50 in December!) and I've been on here since 2012

DinnaeFashYerself · 14/10/2024 10:15

I’m 56 - I joined in 2009 when I read about Gordon Brown’s biscuit-gate drama, and didn’t know what this Mumsnet site was.

Late 60s. Since 2014 (with a gap after Jeffrey hacked us). Came here from Gransnet which was so dull.
