I didnt even know there was a young mamas forum....

Me either!  I just found your post under New Posts....and said, "there's a young mamas".  Cause I always see the mature mamas and wondered why just for mature mamas?!  I'll post here....let me check it out!

Here they won't do it without good reason on anyone under 35.

35?!!  WOW!  In the state I live in at least, it's 25 and you have to have counseling if it's your first baby.  If you're 24 and have 2, you can get tubal or vasectomy.  I can't believe it's so high in England!  My DH still wouldn't make it! 

Okay, you have all upset this OLD preggo!  I'll be---gasp---the big 3-0 in September!!!  But, I'm not old!!!!!  Remember when you were younger and 30 was over the hill?!!

Well, I already responded to a couple things on this thread, but......

My DH is 34, we had DS1 when I was 21, got married when I was 22, DS2 when I was 24, DS3 when I was 27.....here we go again!  Can't even drink on my birthday!  I did have a glass of wine on my 21st, so maybe I'll do that this year. 

I'm 25 years old also. I had DD1 when I was 18 then DD2 when I was 24 now I am 25 going to have DC3.

 I don' think 30 is classed as old personally.  Lots of people having babies at 30+!  It's not for me personally, but only because I always swore I'd have my kids young and then no more after 30 so I could enjoy my 30s and 40s without young babies and toddlers clinging to my ankles!!!  I'm selfish like that!!! 

Hi Im 27!

 I dont think my kids have made me feel older i think it all started when DH (then DP) and I Bought our first house. I was only 20 and he was 22. All our mates where nowhere near settling down. We just feel inlove and slowly started making the move lol. We had a morgage and resposablities.

So I guess from being young home owners then married at 21,Having DD1 at 22, DD2 at 24 and DD3 will be 27..DH will be 3weeks shy of turning 30. It makes us feel alot more accomplished than our mates,but no older. We have no regrets at all.we have made amazing friends that we willkeep for life through having our family young and our friends are just starting to settle and make the move themselves. Its great! Our 3rd little miss will be our last.At times sad to think im finished breading (lol) but also very fulfilled. DH will have the big chop when little miss is one.

Be proud young mummies

I didn't know there was a young mamas section either!!!

I just turned 23 in May. Hubby turned 32 in March ....just a small 9yr age difference LOL..

I fell pregnant when I was 18 (I was on the pill at the time btw), had Taj when I was 19, we got engaged when I was 20, had our wedding when I was 21, got pregnant the second time a couple of months later, had Kai when I was 22...hoping to go for #3 next May'ish...I will be 24 and will have the baby when I'm 25...then I will be complete. Completely agree about feeling older lol...i lost a lot of friends when I first got pregnant, they were all out partying, having a good time, dating etc...I was at home, nursing, cleaning, cooking!!! lol...Don't regret it at all though - I still want to go to uni and do my own thing, so by the time I'm 30 and the kids are at school...it will be about ME!!! Love them to death, wouldn't have it any other way! 

Hi I found out I was pregnant with ds when I had just turned 19 im 24 now and will be ttc in August after my wedding for dc#2 only 5 weeks to go getting excited now (wedding and ttc) I would like to have at least 3 dc but before im 30 as I would like to do the traveling and career thing after im done with having babies 

would just like to add I was food shopping the other day when  a woman came up to me while I was paying with a handful of school vouchers (ds was at nursery) saying you look like a mum do you want these made me feel old

Congrats on your boy for your last.  Hope I hear the same news in a couple months.  Although I still can't make up my mind whether I will be done or not.  How did you make the decision?  I don't want to have a boy and then feel bad I never gave him a brother, but I don't even know if he would care of if they'd even get a long...or if I'm even having a boy.

Thanks, yeah i am pretty excited although it hasnt fully sunk in yet! This baby was a little accident lol but i'm happy i decided from the beggining that 4 is my limit no matter what. Im not worried about him not having bros as 2 of my brothers wives have boys one born last month and one due this week and my BILs wife is having one this month as well so lucky for me he'll have all those cousins close in age but anyway i think boys are just fine on their own i'd be more willing to try again if i had only one girl i just love my sisters soooo much but thats just my opinion. I wish you so much luck!! i know it can make you so anxious all the waiting to KNOW, are you going to find out?

eva4eva:

are you going to find out?

Yes, but I'm only 13 weeks and don't get to find out until I'm 20 weeks, so 7 more long weeks to go.
