Having kids after 30

I had my son Michael at age 28 he will be 4 next week (4th of July) I had my daughter 10 days after my 32 birthday Nov. 19 she is 7 montha old.

My first was at 33, then an angel at 34, then a rainbow at 37, then an angel at 38

I had my daughter when I was 39, yes they have a steongbind even though their 10 yrs apart.

16 with my daughter (sheā€™s now 23)

33 with my 1st son (heā€™s 6)

36 with my 2nd son (heā€™s 3)

Iā€™m currently 40 and am due with my 3rd son in 2 weeks

Iā€™m 32 will be 33 in 2 weeks and Iā€™m 26 weeks pregnant with a boy and I have a 15 year old daughter too.

I have an 8 and 2 year old I had my done at 32 they donā€™t really bond much but love each other

Iā€™m 35. Having number 3 in a month!

I was 38 when I had my last babyā€¦big gaps in my kids ages ā€¦my kids ages were 18,14, and 8 then I had the babyā€¦all the kids are great with the babyā€¦

I had my son when I was 42, he is about to be 16 months and my only child

I had my 5th at 38.my kids are 22,20,19,13 & almost 3

My 4th daughter was born when I was 37, she is now 15, my oldest is gone to be 35, then I have a 29 and 33 yr old, my daughter seems to have bonded with my 7 grandkids more than her sisters, but I think itā€™s because the older girls dont live with us, have families of their own

First child at 28 second at 33.
5 year age gap and itā€™s the BEST!
My older is such a great helper! No jealousy!

19 with my first, 27 with my second, and will be 33 when my twins come in October. My son and daughter have a really big age gap but they have a really close,awesome, relationship.

I was 31 for the last of my fourā€¦ For ages 16,12,10, and 7. The middle two have the closet relationship but my 12 year old has a special connection with his 7 year old sister.

Iā€™m 33 & finally expecting my 1st!!! (girl)!!! :100::100::100:

Iā€™m 36. My kids are 17, 8, 3, and 2.

I had twins at 32 and another baby at 34

Iā€™m 32 and I would like to have one more. My first two are 10 and 5.

I was 36 when I had my son. My daughter was 12 at that time. She was a great helper with him. She is now 20 and he is 8. They have a very strong bond. She adores him & he loves her fiercely. :heartpulse::blue_heart:

I got pregnant with my first at 28 had her at 29, then I got pregnant with my second daughter at 30 had her at 31 (19 months apart) right now they get along pretty wellā€¦ :joy:

I have a 8 and a 9 year oldā€¦ Had them in my early 20,s Iā€™m now 31 with baby #3 on way

Iā€™m 30 and pregnant with my second. They will be 7 years apart

My oldest is 9 ,had him when I was 26 and I also have a 3 and 2 year olds as well. So all 3 are boys and only girl in house

32 with my first and almost 35 with my 2 yr old. My husband has other kids so ours have siblings that are grown.

I had my daughter at 21 she is now 9 i am 30 and currently pregnant with a son due in September. You ladies are amazing i have officially decided this is my last bc my body cant handle another pregnancy. This one has been the complete opposite than my last.

Not yet, butā€¦my kids are 17 1/2, 16, 13, and 12. #5 is due mid August, and I am 39!

I had my first at 21 and my third at 31!

The age difference is great. They love eachother so much. And my son is such a great helper to his baby sissy

I had my first right before turning 42 & my second 15 months later at 43.

Five years apart on all 4 kids. I was 20, 25, 30, then 36 for last one. I have one out of school, two in schools, and a toddler going into head start this year! Iā€™m never going to be done! Lol. Iā€™m sure Iā€™ll have grandkids before they all leave.

I was 21 when i had my oldest he is 19 now , 33 when i had my second one whom is 7 now 38 when i had my baby she is 2 and i am 40.

30 for first one and 39 for second. They are both girls and adore one another ! My 13 yr old is like a second mom to her 3 yr old.sister. her baby sister wants to do and be everywhere her sister is so sometimes she gets annoyed but overall its been amazing.

I have a 22 year old, a 7 year old, and a 2 year old

I had my first when I was 29. And I just had my 2nd child the day before I turned 32. Theyā€™re 2.5 years apart

I am not personally over 30 yet and only have 1 child. But I was 9 1/2 when my sister was born, obviously every parent is different on how they handle things but I personally felt like a built in babysitter at times and didnā€™t really have a bond with my sister until she was older. And when I say older Iā€™m talking like 6 or 7 because then I was the ā€œcool big sisterā€ :joy: and I could take her to do fun stuff. We have a great relationship now and weā€™re pretty close and enjoy some of the same things, sheā€™s 19 and Iā€™m almost 29 so we have more in common these days then we did when she was younger.

I was 33 and only wanted the one. It was and is amazing bet I have 3 step children not living with us but every weekend but I never wanted a second of my own

Almost 7 years between. mine they got along when they were younger son said we spoiled her he was an only child for so long he was spoiled too he got everything he ever wanted now he no longer speaks to me I still love him and care about him always will

33, oldest is 12, LO is 5 mths

I had my 1st at 26 seconds 3 years later 3rd 3 years later my 8 and 1 yo have a great bond my 8 and 4 yo fight alot and my 4 and 1 yo dont bother with each other lol

I was 4 weeks of turning 21 when I had my 1st and 25 when I had my 2nd. Iā€™m officially 30 today lol and wanting to follow this post.

Yepā€¦first at 34 (almost 35) and 2nd and 40. They are almost exactly 4.5 years apart. A lot of jealously at first but now that the 2nd has turned 1 and plays ā€¦itā€™s much better!

My sister is 42, she has a 21yr, 18yr, 15yr, 14yr, and a 2 week old. Itā€™s pretty hectic but a happy hectic.

I got pregnant a month after i turned 30, we have judt about a 6yr gap from our 2nd to 3rd now. Bonding has never been a problem shes 7months old. We actually want to have another in the next few years.

Iā€™m 32, just had a little boy and I have a daughter who is 11, she adores him

Had my first at 21 my last at 30 they are 11,7,3 and 2

My oldest sister was born 11 months after my arrival. As young girls we were very close. I was 6 when my brother was born and almost 12 when my youngest was born!! My sister and I would race each other home from school each day to see who would grab the baby out of her crib!!! She always woke with a giant smile. Still all close!!

I was 26, 28 and 30 with my first 3 then at 33 my second last son and then at 35 with my last son they are 12, 10, 9, 4 and 2

had my first at 36 next one was 38 and the last one at almost44

I had mine at ages 22, 25, 29, 32, and soon to be 34 years old. They all get along great. Well the older two fight but thatā€™s given.

32 with my 1st Iā€™m 35 now working on #2

Between the 1st and 2nd I had 6 years between.
The 1st and 3rd I had 13 years!!
I was 21 with the first and 34 with the last!
We have a 17, 11 and 4 year old!
My husband and I liked the age gap!!
They get along fine and probably fight less than most sibs!! Way less competition!! Both the older kids adore the last one!

We have 7 children, 14(1 month after 18) 13(13 months later) almost 12(19 months later) 7(wtf dude) 6(well fuck me) 18 month old SURPRISE twins (Jesus fix it) I was 31 for a month when the twins were born, they came only a few days after my oldest turned 13. Iā€™m always baffled by the age question bc mine are so close no matter the age, but I couldnā€™t imagine being some if the friends I know that are like 16 years apart!! Iā€™ve also been pregnant most of the last 16 years!! The thing is, can you deal with what that ā€œgapā€ causes? Bc most everyone can and does. Kids are kids and such a crazy joy

Had my youngest at 30 and he just turned 1! His brother is 3 :hugs:

I had my first at 30 and my second at 33

My last child was born when I was 42!!! Lolā€¦ his older siblings at the time were 25, 17, 15, 11.
He was indeed a surprise!

I had my first child at 33

I was 25 when I had my 1st, 27 when I had my 2nd, and 36 when I had my last. The older 2 fought constantly but both got along with the youngest.

My girls are almost 15 and 12yrs and my son is 2 i am 33.
I absolutely LOVE the age Gap personally. Its like my girls had their girls only fun growing up and now itā€™s like my sons the only baby so he gets the benefits of an only child since my older two can and want to do most things themselves he can have as much of mom or dad as he wants and at the same time he has his big sisters who adore him (most days lol) if I were to change anything Iā€™d probably just add another in right about now so he has someone to grow up with lol but on a side note, my girls will be old enough for him to have them to go with sleep overs or just if he feels like he canā€™t talk to me theyā€™re there for him.

My first child at 20ā€¦second child at 29ā€¦so with that 9 yr age Difference itā€™s tough. Especially since oneā€™s heading to college and one is heading to 3rd grade!! Aahh!! Both boyā€™s so they have fun together playing video games and sometimes shooting hoop. But besides that the youngest always gets on the oldest nerves. Lol

My brother the baby of the family is 7 years younger than I amā€¦
We are extremely closeā€¦my mom had him when she was 36ā€¦thought all done but surpriseā€¦lol.a how come you come babyā€¦we are very close family

Had one - almost 34 - didnā€™t have more although I would have liked to. Easy pregnancy and delivery!

Im almost 22 my brothers are 16 and 14 and we bonded well.

I was 34 ā€¦ I have a 22 year old a 18 year old and a 16 year old and my youngest is 7 :joy::joy: big age gapā€¦ My oldest adores her most time and the other 2 find her annoying most of the time :blush:

My first at 30 and currently pregnant with my second at 33

Iā€™m 32, I have a 9yr old 5 yr old and 20 week pregnant!! My two older ones definitely have there days!! But they love each other!

As far as the age gap thing my sister and I are 8 years apart and we have a quite rocky relationship

Iā€™m 2 of 4. My mother was 27, 34, 41 and 43. Honestly weā€™re not particularly close.

My daughter loves helping me w her lil brother. I did try earlier but my now husband and I did have a couple of off periodsā€¦so it took us several years to get pregnantā€¦it happened when of course we both accepted it wasnt g2happen lol. W being 35 this time around, couldnt handle the pain as well as I did w my 1stā€¦she came out in 10minsā€¦22hrs of labor and no drugs. This lil guy was a total of 11hrs of labor, but i budged for epidural and was so numb that after 2hrs of pushing, they had to do an emergency c sectionā€¦so definitely was 2 totally different experiences from me being in my early 20s and til now in my mid 30s. However, I was more prepared this time aroundā€¦Iā€™m wiser on knowing what to doā€¦and have more patience for sure lol

She was mad @ 1st to find out she was gonna have a little brother, but as she sees my stomach getting bigger she talks to him every day.

Im 35 and pregnant, my son is 3 will be 4 in December.

32 with my first and 34 with my second. My boys are inseparable! They are 25 months apart and are each otherā€™s best friend.

I have two boys 10 and 9 and a 10 month old daughter. I was 33 when my daughter was born and the boys love their baby sister

I was 30 when I had my son. Heā€™s almost 1, and my daughter is 8, and they have an amazing bond. He loves her so much and wants to be with her all the time, and she would do anything for him. She tells me all the time that she loves his smile and laugh, and seeing him happy makes her so happy.

My mother was 43 when she had me and I have two sisters that are eighteen and twenty years older than I am. The one sister eighteen years older than I am, we have a great sister bond, but the oldest sister we dont get along with.

My daughter is 14 i had her at 20 im now 38 weeks and having him monday so they will be 14 yrs apart and im 33

2 in my 20s and 3 after I was in my 30s. Its like 2 seperate familes.

My mom was 37 when she had me im her sixth child my next older sibling was 5 yrs older

I had all my babies after 30. My first at 32, my second at 33, and my third at 35. There is 14 months between my first and second. When they were small my oldest always protected the second.

Not me, but my mom had my brother when she was almost 40, thereā€™s an 11 year age gap between us but heā€™s honestly my best friend
