19 for the first, just had my 3rd last Dec-was 33. Definitely much easier when you're younger. I'm constantly tired now lol, but I'm lucky in a sense my older two 12 & 15 help out a bit.

I was 23 and 27 when I had my two kids. I think the timing was good.

Do you not fear you will be too old to do things with them when they are older? Why did you give it so much time in between? Also how much did they cost haha!

Why did you take a 4 year break in between? (3 i guess) Do you think that was a good or bad idea?

My husband and I had our first child, a son named Luke, 8 months ago. I was 20 years old. I wouldn't have it any other way, I always wanted to be a young mom!

That is exactly what my wife says lol. She is now 20 but I'm not sure if we can afford a child and what all the complications will be.

I was 19 going on 20. I love my son but I would have waited a few more years to have him. I really was not ready to be a mom. I really didnt have a chance to do much of anything.

I was about 33 years old. I regret to have a child late because I can see by now that my classmates had a daugther or son in high schoold which me still raising a 4 year old kid. I am just hoping that why my kid grow up, I am not yet to old to join him the fun.

That is a good point. I would also love to be able to still play with my kids when they get older and into sports and things.
