When's the best age to be pregnant and why? Weighing the pros and cons right now of conceiving in my late 20s vs waiting till my 30s

Question

Answer

I'd say whenever you're financially emotionally and physically optimal to care for a child

Answer

I waited until I was 32 and am really glad because I enjoyed being young and free and partying and traveling while I was still young.  It's different for everyone and I dont think there is a right or wrong answer for this question

Answer

I'll be 32 when my first is born. I am still young so people saying 30s is too old are crazy. I got to go to college, get married and have a really stable career all without having to worry about kids and I wouldn't change it at all.

Answer

I think it just depends on when you feel ready. Me personally I chose to conceive while I was on the younger side so I could still play with her and be in good health but it really depends on where you are in your life

Answer

I was always set on being a younger mother, I want to have energy to run around with my kids and then grandkids... I don't want to be old when my kids graduate college... Just my personal opinion.

Answer

My first at 21. I LOOOOOVE being a young mom!! She is 5 end of June. Planned as well, got married at dang 19 lol.

Now pregnant with number two and I'll be 27 a couple weeks after baby is born. It feels weird to be a new mom at 27 but I have tons of new life experience under my belt! Still young as well. I am quite happy with both ages. I had always said I never wanted to go past 28 but honestly 30 is no different than 27 at this rate.

But you always have to keep in mind that you could be someone who has a hard time getting pregnant. Waiting til 30, you could maybe not have a kid til 35 or it could happen right away. It's just hard when you don't know.

Answer

Biologically, the best age is early 20s to mid 20s. Emotionally? Only you can decide. My mom was 16 when she had her first kind and i know theres no way i could have done that but it worked for her. I gotta say that i do enjoy the fact that my mom is still young enough to go have drinks with me and just do other stuff. The good think about having kids later is that you are more likely to be where you want in life but i would prefer it sooner than later

Answer

Honestly, these days, it's completely normal to start having kids young...I'll be 23 in a few months and my fiancé will be 27 soon and we are TTC because we feel we're ready. That's what is important. But the older you get the harder it MIGHT be for you to get pregnant.

Answer

Well I had my first child at 21 that's older than other people I went to school with, who were 15-18 but I think it's all about stability and maturity, I would say 26 because most people around that age is settled down with a career and they are financially and mentally stable and mature, but to each is own

Answer

I'm 28 and expecting my first. Biologically I'm ready but emotionally, not so much! It's taking a lot of getting used to and I'm in a bit of a daze. It's all personal to you.
