I will be 37 when Katelyn turns 18,
almost 39 when Hailey turns 18,
and almost 41 when Lauren turns 18.

When I look at it like that, I really don't want anymore children. 41!! I will still be young enough to go places with DH and have lots of fun by the time my kids are grown. WOW. interesting.

By Reds9298 on Tuesday, September 20, 2005 - 06:17 pm:

I will be 48, one reason (of my many!) that I don't want anymore. Then we can still retire around age 55 or so...house will be paid for and kid will be through college. We can finish traveling!!!! :)

By Kateg on Tuesday, September 20, 2005 - 08:21 pm:

43 & 44

By Dawnk777 on Tuesday, September 20, 2005 - 08:25 pm:

Sarah - 47
Emily - 50

They were born when I was 29 and 32.

Ha ha, Melissa. Out of the house at 45? I guess that isn't going to happen at my house! My mom was 38, when I turned 18 and I was out of the house at 23, so she was 43'ish, so that did work for my mom, but she was 21, when she had me!

By Pamt on Tuesday, September 20, 2005 - 08:33 pm:

44 with the oldest and 46 with the youngest---sounds just about right to me. :)

By Tink on Tuesday, September 20, 2005 - 09:16 pm:

I'll be 38, 40 and 42. This reminds me why I'm so glad I had my kids when I was young. Lots of time afterwards to still enjoy everything!

By Yjja123 on Tuesday, September 20, 2005 - 09:52 pm:

I will be 42 and 44. I had my kids in my mid 20's everyone else in my family had theirs in their 30's. They have babies right now. I can't imagine having a baby at this stage.

By Mommyof5 on Tuesday, September 20, 2005 - 10:36 pm:

Holly I will be 41
Megan I will be 44
Cassie I will ber 45
Tessa I will be 47
Simon I will be 49

I always wanted to be no more than 30 years older than my youngest child and I came close to doing it as I am 31 years older than Simon. I'm still working on dh for another son but if I can get dh to go for it I think he would be older than Simon.

By Missbookworm on Tuesday, September 20, 2005 - 10:52 pm:

I will be 33, 39 and 43

My partner will be 60 by the time my youngest is 18 ;) he might shoot me for putting out that info on the net loll

By Jtsmom on Tuesday, September 20, 2005 - 10:55 pm:

Jack - 46
Luke - 49

By Missbookworm on Tuesday, September 20, 2005 - 10:56 pm:

oops..that's 34 not 33 lol but close enough ;)

I always planned to have all my babies young so that I'd be able to focus on things like...a career...grandchildren etc. and be there for them ALOT when they were little. pstttt I want to travel the world too and well they're welcome to join me if I do it.

By Crystal915 on Tuesday, September 20, 2005 - 11:01 pm:

Goodness Catherin! You started young!! ;)

By Dawnk777 on Tuesday, September 20, 2005 - 11:36 pm:

By Cybermommyx4 on Wednesday, September 21, 2005 - 12:11 am:

By My2girlygirls on Wednesday, September 21, 2005 - 08:17 am:

By Brandy on Wednesday, September 21, 2005 - 03:30 pm:

Not Mine lol um it's the other person on the other message board lol = )

By Dana on Wednesday, September 21, 2005 - 04:41 pm:

Yeah, right, Brandy...."the other mom from the other board" LOL. I'm gonna find your number when I'm 61 and let you know if it's as old as it sounds right now. :)

By Paulas on Wednesday, September 21, 2005 - 04:55 pm:

I'll be 44 and 47. Not too bad I guess. I want to retire at 55 since my mom was only 53 when she passed and my dad 63...I don't want to be working right to the end.

By Brandy on Wednesday, September 21, 2005 - 04:59 pm:

I'd be glad to give you my number Dana = ) i've been worried about you = ) thought you were in the middle of the hurricane and everything lol = ) ...

By Karefl on Wednesday, September 21, 2005 - 05:14 pm:

39, 42, & 48

By Mrsheidi on Wednesday, September 21, 2005 - 07:49 pm:

49
They say that couples are now waiting to have kids a bit longer than they used to. I'm glad we waited 4 years...I got to know DH a lot better. And, the traveling was fun! :)

By Missbookworm on Wednesday, September 21, 2005 - 10:00 pm:

mmhmm I was young lol....not everyone agreed with my choice to have a baby at the age I did but I was bent on keeping him and for 4 years I was a single mom with him....they thank me now for not listening to him he's a wonderful boy....

LOL dawn....glad it's not your oldest?

Really I don't regret it for a minute. I'm happy they're bigger. I enjoy them soooooooo much..although I miss babies sometimes...oh well eventually grandchildren....say when I'm 40 or sooner lol

By Dawnk777 on Thursday, September 22, 2005 - 12:34 am:

Yeah, missbookworm, I'm glad it's not my oldest. I want to be a grandma, but not quite yet. She's not that interested in boys right now, anyway. She's far more interested in her music, school, friends, etc.

By Crystal915 on Thursday, September 22, 2005 - 01:34 am:

This got me thinking, my mom will be 57 when my brother is 18, and she was 38.5 when she became a grandmom. Then again, she says it was a lot easier with me when she had lots of energy, my brother and sister wear her out now that she's older. I guess there really are benefits to both sides, because she can afford to do more with them, but she's too busy sleeping! LOL

By Rayanne on Thursday, September 22, 2005 - 08:22 am:

I will be 43.

By Reds9298 on Thursday, September 22, 2005 - 04:27 pm:

Ditto Heidi. We waited 6(married) years and traveled, established ourselves professionally and financially, spent $, and had fun and FREEDOM! :) It was wonderful and I wouldn't change a thing. I could have waited another 5 years, but now I wouldn't have it any other way. I think there are advantages and disadvantages to both starting early or late.

By Momofmax on Thursday, September 22, 2005 - 05:51 pm:

I'll be 49, sounds like I'm not alone though!

By Truestori on Friday, September 23, 2005 - 12:33 am:

35 when my daughter turns 18!
41 when my son turns 18!
