in Parenting after 35

Hi all. Thought I might introduce myself. I'm a 36 year old mom of a 2 year old little girl. We live in NJ. I'm a teacher and my husband works for my father in the family business.

Sometimes I can't help but think that I should have started having kids a lot sooner. I just don't have the energy sometimes. Tongue Tied

    Hi there!!! I'm another NJ mom (I'm 40, my DS is 11 months) and am totally exhausted!  I really think younger moms have more energy. Or at least that's my excuse. ;-)

    Welcome!  We're a nice group.  We TRY not to be judgey (I say try because I occasionally fail) and we support each other. A very nice group of ladies, if I do say so myself.

    I'm 36 and on my first. I have MS so I'm not sure if I'm tired because I'm old or ill. Stick out tongue

    Hi and welcome. I'm tired, too. But I LOVE it and wouldn't change the timing for anything.
