Just that really!
Would love a third but nearly 37 so feel time is running out!

I didn’t. 32 was old enough for me to be pregnant!

34 😊 but I do have a friend who is expecting her third imminently who turned 37 a couple of months ago. I also have a couple of friends that had their second in their late 30s/ early 40s x

I had my third at 33. I have a friend who had her 6th at 48. Nearly killed her mind you.

31, 33, 36.

34 and I’m tired now! Teenagers are hard work, youngest is now 12.

Pottingup · 05/07/2025 12:21

Just before my 39th birthday. He’s nearly an adult now. It’s all been fine age wise and no regrets.

My third (and last) was at 34. Definitely felt like number 3 completed our family.

  1. Easy pg and childbirth. No problems with breastfeeding or tiredness.
GalacticGymnastic · 05/07/2025 20:31

35 and was fine.

Would have happily had another after that but dh wasn't on board!

Just had my third in April at 40. Absolutely no more though. I’ve got three 5 and under as we started late.

JohnnyLuLus · 05/07/2025 20:34

I felt every bit of the five years between my second and third. I had no pain or issues in my first two pregnancies, but pregnancy number three I was plagued by back and hip pain and felt constantly drained. Wouldn't recommend.

ohfook · 05/07/2025 20:36

Days before my 41st birthday. Wouldn’t change a thing.

  1. She is now 13 and tells me.that she is desperate to be 18 and go out dancing with me, like her 20 year old sister. Apparently, I'll have arthritis in my shoulders by then 🤔. Btw, not raving or clubbing, but parties and live cover bands.

  1. No age related issues at all. Just less time to rest with two small kids to care for.

All went very smoothly.

PinkPanda99 · 05/07/2025 21:38

I was 36, 2 of my friends are having their 2nd/have had their 3rd at 39, I’ve had no age related issues at all

CarriMarie · 05/07/2025 21:40

32, then had 4th at 34.

i was 40 with my 3rd and it was easier then with my second I think. When my 2nd was born I had a 3 year old and that was tiring. With baby 3, my 10 and 7 year olds were more helpful and obviously needed me less.
