Totally Curious....at what age did you become a mom?
I was thinking about this earlier for whatever reason so I am now curious. I did things all backwards, got married before finishing college (graduating FINALLY this spring), decided I wanted a baby before going back to college, and then after my kids I will finally start my career. So at what age did you become a mom??
I was pregnant and gave birth to Alec in 2002 when I was 22 years old. Mikayla was born in 2006 when I was 26 years old.

I was 32 when Kate was born. Hard to believe that when my mom was my age she had a 14 year old and a 11 year old. I can't even imagine.

I will officially become a mom by December 10th, 2008, when I am scheduled for a C section. I will be 39 years old (13 days shy of my 40th birthday). Elisa at PGN told me today that my file is waiting for pick up with an approval. So I hope to mom of 2 very soon.

My Guat son was born when I was 28 (6 days before my 29th birthday. He came home when I was 29, two months before I turned 30. I had always said I wanted to be a mom by the time I was 30...I couldn't have cut it much closer.
My Guat daughter was born when I was 30 and came home when I was 31! I am currently 32 with two wonderful guatlings that I love from the moon and back. We are unsure if we will adopt again in the future. For right now we are happy and busy with our 3-year-old and 1.5-year-old!

31 when my first was born...I decided to adopt shortly after my 31st birthday and she was born 6 months later and came home 16 days before my 32nd birthday.
My second was born when I was 33 and came home just after I turned 34. Now I am 37 and still wondering if there will be a number three...

I'm one of the oldies here
![]() My oldest son was born when I was 35. Carolina came home when I was 39, and then Clair-Elise was born 7 months later. Jesse just came home a week before I turned 41, and Maria is due in four months - I'll still be 41. And DH turns 48 next week. DH and I don't think about retirement - just don't think we'll ever get there! But we're having fun!
