    30 and 32, son was 2 days after my birthday!

    Midlifecrashes in 3 years the oldest will comfortably outpace you uphill, you may be able to descend quicker and outrun him/her on the flat though.

    34 for me, Mrs LJ was 31. We are both still that age as it was only 12 weeks ago. I can’t imagine doing all this ten years ago TBH. Actually, I can’t imagine doing all this with the person I was with ten years ago!

    31, she’s 2 now, and absolutely loves riding her bike down to the park whilst I run behind to keep up, and going in the bike trailer, so I’m enjoying pretty much daily bike rides at the moment.

    mrcarlos and me were both 34 when our first son was born and 41 when our second arrived last year , we had intended having them closer together but mother nature stepped in a couple of times and put a stop to proceedings.

    I was 21 when our first arrived and the mrs 18, our second 2 years later.

    Nearly 27 years later we are enjoying the grand kids while we have some life left in us.

    Looking back we think we did it right.

    Its funny how the people who had kids young and are now 40 feel old, and the ones just having kids at 40 feel young (if not a bit tired) 😉

    Simonm has it right . I know crankbrat has come later in my life than is normal but I feel ready to relax and enjoy time with him.

    Having kids ranging in age from 2 to 21 I feel qualified to say it’s not always that way Simon. I feel my age, always have.

    34 when the fist one arrived, and 37 when the second one turned up…
    (I’m 39 now – wife is 2.5 years younger)
    We both wish we’d had them a bit earlier – not a lot, maybe 3-5 years.

    Won’t be having anymore due to ‘complications’ with the birth of our second daughter.

    We’d been trying for a good 18 months before hand though.

    34 + 36, but we had been trying for quite a few years.

    We both wish we’d had them a bit earlier – not a lot, maybe 3-5 years.

    Same her, but maybe 7-10 years earlier.

    Its not so much feeling old now – more of feeling its too old to start a family in your 40 `s 😕
    It was financially difficult having our two so young for a good few years.
    But now both kids are at uni and I feel practically in my prime and can make the most of all my free time.
    I certainly do not envy people having kids in their 40 `s ..
