Too old to have babies?

[squidwid]

I'm 36 and we have 2 dc. I'd like another maybe 2. Am I insane? Or too old?

I decided to get pregnant at 41 and had twins at 42 , probably could have had another if I'd been mad enough to want to. No way is 36 too old.

Yes, decrepit and over the hill 🙄

How ridiculous, asking if 36 is too old.

Whether it's right for your family is something you have to work out with your partner.

DAunt had hers at 34, 38 and 42. She is doing triathlons at the minute (roughly 56).

Dm had the last of 6 at 37.

A friend growing up had surprise twin siblings when he was 16 and his DM was 43.

I had twins at 47.
I'm now 50, post-menopausal and working a big job, with two 3-year olds. Yes, I'm tired, but feel I'd have been just as tired 10 years ago.

The Lucy Cavendish article is very negative, and just her experience. And her kids are quite spaced out, so she's worn out from constant parenting since her 20s.
