Pregnant after 35

Ventured over to Month board...

Topic: give up your seat to a pregnant woman (bus, waiting area of restaurant, etc).  I was doing fine until I stumbled on this gem:

"The only people that regularly offer me their seats are older women in their forties or fifies.  It's incredible!!"

I don't even know what to say...but I'm laughing my butt off.

  • Well, us old gals have some wisdom and kindness, I guess.

    I found a journal entry from when I was 19 two nights ago.  My "life plan" was to be married, have 1 baby and another on the way by the time I was 23 because I didn't want to be "too old" to be a "good mother".

    I was an idiot.

    It's a miracle I even survived my 20's.

  • At least she said "older" and not "elderly."  That makes me feel a little bit better.  Maybe she just meant mature, and well mannered!

  • I'm only a year and a half from being considered "older"?  Yikes!!!  I'm still 25 in my head!  Guess I'd better adjust my self-image, lol.

  • Yeah the reminder that in our 20s we must have had some kind of excrement for brains makes you so happy that it was just a phase.

    Age is a beautiful thing once you accept that you are NOT a baby anymore.  Embrace your maturity and know that they will look back one day and see how ill mannered they seem.
