Right age to have a baby

[pinkyprincess]

This is really interesting I think. One thing I haven't experienced is a change in money as I've always been in low paid jobs and most of what I've earnt has come straight out! Part of the reason I was happy with now is that we don't own a house. We were in council and now HA and my OH's company are starting to make lay offs, so I'm glad if the worst did happen, we'd never loose our house. I don't miss my 'freedom' but i get resentful of OHs sometimes. I also can't believe I'm entrusted in the care of Tyler but we seem to pootle along quite well!

You see maybe its down to the support you have too - my DH is brilliant with Alice and i get lots of nights 'off' to sleep and my mum is still healthy enough to babysit on a friday so me and DH still get time for us, My mum has a form of lung disease and mil has had a few heart attacks so that was a reason we got married young, and also why i wanted to start a family young, i really would have hated for my baby not to have its grandmas there. And it also means i still have support from my mum with the baby because at any age been a 1st time mum is scary! Also me and OH moved in together when i was 17 so the party's and shopping spees where not that often anyway. ---- But a lot of friends my age are no where near settling down or having babies everyone is different --- ill shut up now!!! x
