age of having kids

I have done both. I had my first child when i was 19, then 18 months later had my second son. I was 21 with two boys under five. I loved being a young mum and i never did feel old. Then i had my daughter four years later, then my third son come along four years later. Now at 36 i am a mum of a two year old boy i do love ever minute of it but i think as you get older it does get harder. So i now have a 16 year old, a 15 year old,a 11 year old a 7 year old and a 2 year old I would not change a thing about it i love being a mum. My children are the best thing that happen to me.

I'm 26 and just had my first I think that IM at a good age to have kids. I'm out of school and had a chance to experince all the partying and stuff to get that out of my system. I'm now focusing on my daughter and ready to settle down to that next step. I am as well a single mother and had my first out of wedlock, but I wouldn't change a thing for the world.

I had my first and only so far when i was 20. I am still unmarried and her father isn't in her life. She's 5 now and although I want more kids, I'm not stable enough for more. I find it very hard being a single mom even though I have my parents to help me. I am 26 now and I do feel the clock ticking (i know i'm still young) but I just cant bring myself to have another child yet. I know it's just going to get harder the older I keep getting. I am not going to have the energy that I did when I was younger because I don't have that energy now!

yeah i feel the same i had my first really too young at 16 (though i was a grown up) then my second at 19 twins when i was 21 and a baby girl at 25 all but the first was a c-section each time but the last i bounced back like nuthin the last time there was a definate change took alot longer to heal and it really took its toll on me, and i wasnt old just seems the body gets tired :)

I had my first two children when I was 24 and 25 and went until I was 29 till I have my last baby and I found it alot harder and I wasn't old either.
