    My mom had me when she was 42. The age gap between my closest sister and I are 10 years. I am the youngest of six and my older siblings can be my parents. I love my family. My mom was my best friend growing up and now, so are my sisters. I'm 35 and my husband is 52. We're expecting our first July 2015. When it comes to love and family, I believe age is never an issue. Congrats on your growing family❤️.

    Yes...me..I am 42 yrs old...I have a almost 18 yr old son, 15 1/2 yr old daughter. My actual due date is Aug 4 but will be induced earlier by 1/2 weeks. This wasn't planned, a big surprise. I have been divorced from kids father for over 5 yrs, just moved to be with my new partner, he has a 5 & 6 yr olds. My kids moved with me, its a huge change for us & now that I am expecting don't know what to think! We have not told anyone as of yet, I am scared to tell my kids!! It will have to be soon, I cant hide my expanding waist line much longer. But kind of hoping to wait til we have the invasive testing done with. I am trying real hard & adjust to these new changes but its so overwhelming especially with fact I thought I was done having kids & was in the mind frame of excepting the fact my kids are going to be moving along in there lives soon. Anyone else out there in the same spot?

    No but I am 37 and expecting my first. My mother had me when she was 42 and there is a big age gap between me and my siblings. My oldest brother is in his mid fifties. the closest in age to me is my brother and he is 7 years older. It happens to be a helpful thing for you because your oldest kids can take a lot of pressure off caring for the baby. Plus there is a lot of extra love there. I felt like I had four mommies!

    Don't worry. My mom had me when she was 42 and that was in the seventies. The doctor sometimes make you so worried about these things.

    Good luck to you! It will be wonderful!
