How old was your mom when you were born?

The other polls got me thinking how old your moms were when you were born. I feel like I'm going to be one of the older moms in my neighborhood/school, even though I was only 29 when DD was born. My BFF just turned 29 and has a 1st grader! I'm behind :)

    I was 29 when Evelyn was born, she's my first.  I feel like that's a pretty common age to start having kids now, though.

    My mom was 26 when she had me.
    It's odd because I know quite a few people my age that have 5-7 year olds and then quite a few people who are my age that have no babies or just had their first.  There aren't any that have kids in between those ages, so I always felt like I was behind the ball.  I got married 5.5 years ago, so we waited a while to have kids after marriage.

  • She was 22. I'm the middle child. She had all five of her girls in 5 years, with my older sisters being twins. So at my age (27) she had 5, ranging from 2-7. That seems so crazy to me.

  • I'm a weirdo only (established). My mom was 31 when she had me, I was 32 when I had Cam. I am pretty much right on par with most of my IRL friends, but then most of them went to law school with me, so we pretty much are all about 5+ years delayed on the family path.

  • My mom was 20 when she had me and 23 when she had my sister. They found a tumor when she was 24 and she ended up almost dying and having to have a hysterectomy. I'm so glad she started having children pretty early although I wish I had more siblings.
    I was 3 days shy of 23 when I had Jude.

  • My mom was 25 when she had me (her first), I had my first at 28 and I'm considered "a young mom" in the area I live in, which seems really funny to me

  • My mom was 42 when she had me. She got married late though, and I'm the 3rd. Not an oops.

    I was 27 when I had A. Most people I graduated with have 5 year olds, but 3/4 of my closest friends all had babies last year, and my other friend is due with her first in a few weeks.

  • My mom had just celebrated her 18th birthday a few weeks before. I was 39 when I had my LO. Most of my best friends are childless, unfortunately. A couple were in their 30's. I often wonder what was in the water where we all worked, for so many of us to have struggled with infertility.

    My mom was
    20 with her first
    23 with me
    31 with her third

    I was 25 with DD and 29 with DS. I almost always feel like the youngest mom of the group at DD's school functions/bday parties. It's interesting - in my circle of family and friends my age, we could open our own daycare with all our kids. But with DH's friends, we were the only ones for a while.
    DD ~ 8/30/09 DS ~ 10/13/13
  • She was 27 when she had me; 34 when she had my brother.

    I was 35 when DS was born.
