On the subject of age:

dd1 asked today if her godmother was going to be 160 (she's going to be 60). I told her no one in the world is 160, AFAIK.

She said, very calmly and with great authority, 'but I will be, one day'.

Wouldn't surprise me a bit, given her line of antique relatives

Happy birthday debz!

I'm 43. Have one child, dd aged 7 (nearly 8). Love being a mum, wish I'd started earlier, but 3 mcs over 6 years meant that didn't happen. I'm SO glad to be an old mum and dd tells me I'm not old anyway....

[BoysAreLikeDogs]

[HairyToedHobbit]

I'm 42 with a 2 year old DS, living in the Bristol area. Would love a second one but trying to face up to reality now. DS was a surprise, conceived after an ectopic, 3 years of tryng, giving up and starting down the adoption route .

[FranSanDisco]

I'm 42 with a dd of almost 8 yo and a ds of almost 6 yo (both October born). Don't feel old and would have loved another dc but it didn't happen .

[debzmb62]

[BlackEyedDog]

oh I love this thread.

Am 41 with ds nearly 5 - we are south east coastal. I thought we were being a bit too hopeful to think we might pop another but clearly not!

That said I have a 52 yr old friend with a 5 yr old (natural) and another who had twins at 49 and another at 51 (assisted I think). Lovely.

[debzmb62]

[minkybetty]

1dilemma I know you said old wasn't a mum in 30s but am 39(and a bit and DH is 49 so that kinda counts?) and I certainly feel old as my DD is nearly 2 - wish I had done this earlier as am exhausted (AND I only have one but I do work!)
Catweazle - how have you managed to look after 5 DCs.. without out going crazy? I am truly impressed!

[extremelychocolateymilkroll]

Just found this thread and thought I'd try and get it going again. I'm 41 with a 15 month old daughter.

[debzmb62]
