So i will be turning 32 this summer i really can't believe time is flying by so fast. But i think i may have waited too long to have a baby now i'm going to be a old mother. But the right situation as not presented itself i would like to be married and find a job that i actually love first not one that i dread going to each day, the beautiful dream house and i haven't traveled to all the places i would like to before having a baby. There is a part of me that thinks i'm setting up myself up for failure in the baby department if i wait on all my dream situations to come true before having a baby.

Find the right husband first. My mother was thirty two when she had me, and had two more after me.

Yes that's what i would like to do but i'm also thinking what if the right husband doesn't come along until i'm 50. I'm really thinking if i reach 34 and no husband i'm visiting a sperm bank lol i'm serious though

Would you consider adopting as a single? I did. Mine was 7 when I got her and I'm not sorry at all. Plenty of kids waiting for a good parent out there.

I would l ike to say since I Married at 30 and had my first baby at 31 there reall s no real risk but thats n0t completely true,11 momnths later after a hectic pregnancy and aninduction I had our second child and she was born brain damaged so there is reall a risk of birth defects after thirty some women are lucky b ut the risk is really pretty high. I really if I were you not wait much longer. My first born was co mpletely healthyh and too I got pregnant when I was stll recoverng from my first birth. YOu may have a pervectly healthy baby in y our thirties.

I do hope you will find the right time to have one since you want one.

32 is still young - most people can have children until their 40's, even if it isn't recommended. I think it's better to be settled in life before bringing children into the mix rather than making what would be a mistake that you have to deal with for 18 years.

I was married at nineteen, and had my first baby at the age of twenty. My mother inlaw married at the age if 37 and had her first baby at 38.

It's hard for some times for women after 30 to get pregnant. Women's bodies are in there prime between 19-25 years old. Yes a job would be need a guy not so much. Many women have children in there own and raise them on there own. I do have agre it's easier with a partner to be there to help out. But it's truly never to lTe to have a bs y.

It's a matter of prioritizing @Islandtulip . Rushing into something is not good. Finding a husband can be rushed and lead to failure. Having a baby without one leads to you being the sole support. Not having a baby is not the end of the world. Each of us has the dreams to have it 'all' but that's usually not the way it works. Stress is never good. Find the good job, travel and then if you find the right person to marry great; even if you're in your 40's, you can always adopt a child.
