Had my children at 33 and 35, do you consider me an “old mom”?

Those 33% are cheeky!😅 35 is not old!

Hope not haha I had my first at 33 and gonna be 37 when my 2nd is born

Im 39 and have a 2 year old...people ask me am I her nan its so rude x

Nope. Had my first just before 35 and hoping to have another before 37

I had my little boy at 35 as well, so I'm obviously an old mum too 😄

I had my first baby and im 35 years old, if you are healthy and that age doesn't matter

I had my first at 34 and will have my second at 37 (almost 38) so I suppose I’m an old mum too 😂 I think anything after 35 is classed as advanced maternal age! I don’t feel my age but I think my body does most times haha

Nope. I had mine at 27 and 41

I'd consider over 45 maybe as an "old" mum as you put it but, I wouldn't consider 45 to be old as an age. But, women are choosing to have kids later and personally I believe it's not anyone else's business, no matter what age you are when you have children the experience is still similar to others. You shouldn't be judged.

I had mine just after I turned 39

Not at all! Kids have a great way of making us feel old no matter what. I became a mum at 20 and my oldest thinks I'm an irrelevant old fart but his friends don't 🤣 and I was 31 when I had my last 2 (twins) honestly being at least early to mid 30s it was so much easier I was more patient and don't care what others think like I did in my 20s. Would highly recommend everyone waited until their 30s when you have had life and career experience for sure x

My mom had me at 42 and I still wouldn’t consider her an old mom

I had my last little at 33 and she’s now turning 1 next week. I’ve had my first (twins) at 19 and 2 more in the middle. So I can definitely see a difference in mommyhood as I’ve gotten older. I wouldn’t say old I would say wise and experienced or knowledgeable

I don’t think 33 or 35 is old in general that’s still young in life but I do think it’s older for having kids, just because you’ll be raising a teenager when you’re close to 50. To me, that’s more of an “older mom” stage, not in a bad way, just in terms of energy. Obviously im one of the younger ladies in here & I just always envisioned myself to be youthful and hot lmao like I don’t look like I have kids… i want to be done raising babies by 40

No I had my 3rd at 34 he’s 6 now so I’m turning 40. Don’t look or feel old 💁🏻‍♀️ I still go to hobbies that keep me in shape keeps me fit and give me a social life, I’m still enjoying city night life. I think it’s more about feeling old (coz some women feel old at 25 or 30 lol, having lost their whole identity and only “mum”, or getting aches and pains really young) rather than the actual age you have kids. If anything, he keeps me younger cuz I’m chasing after him and going to a million kids places, places I wouldn’t go if I didn’t have him (my older 2 girls are older, in high school)

Had my daughter at 34 and turned 35 exactly one month later! And now about to have my second at 37 and turn 38 shortly after!!! Def not old 😌😌😌

I’m having my first baby and I’m 22

Older but not old

35+ is advanced maternal age.
I snuck my last one out at 34, a month before I turned 35.
You didn’t have them “old” but older and you should be happy and proud.
I’m proud I had mine on the older side, I did it on purpose. I spent my youth running around having fun and setting up my life so I could provide a stable home for my children.

Depends where you live as I’d say that was average amongst my peers but we did live near London.

Nope 😊

Def not old. I've just had my 6th at 42! I actually feel younger now than I did having them in my 20's/30's

When I was younger I always thought 30 was so old 😂
Now I’m 30 I don’t feel old at all, I don’t think 33-35 is old at all. I had my first at 25 and I was always the youngest mom to be at my hospital appointments and baby classes, now at 30 and pregnant with my second I feel like I slot right in

I’m scared to even have a second now because I keep getting called an older mom @ 31 🥲

I’d consider 45 old to have a baby

I’m sure I read somewhere the average age a woman has a baby now is 31

I would consider myself an old mom even having my second at 29 I was like I’m too old for this shit lol but I don’t consider other people old moms at the same age which probably makes no sense

Correct me if I’m mistaken but I thought I once read somewhere that the medical community considers 35+ geriatric pregnancies which I find a little crazy. Because 35 is not geriatric age

In terms of having children, no it’s not old. But in terms of being a mum, yes. A mum In her 20s is not same as mum in 30s.

Honestly that's pretty average now.
I think the average age of first time moms here in Canada is like 31, so you're weren't much older.
I think over 40 is an "old" mom. I had one, my mum was 41 when I was born.

Maybe but it's not a bad thing. I was 33.

Older than most people start, but not an old mom. I think the norm is to have children in your 20s. Though I think it's usually a planned vs unplanned family planning issue lol

I had my little boy at 23 and I want to be finished having all my kids before I’m 30 just because I want to be in the fit of my health and not be 50+ when they are in there teen years but that’s just me! I don’t class you are an old mom! I’d say anything over 40 is an older mom x

My mom had me at 32 and my brother at 36. They say if you have a baby after 30 it increases your chances of living past 80 and having a baby past 35 increases your chances of living past 100. I think pregnancy and early childhood are rougher on you both physically and mentally but by no means are you old. I think if there is a chance you won’t live to see the end of your kids childhood then you are an “old” parent.

Of course not. I had mine at 32 and 35 though so am absolutely biased 😄

i’d say no but it’s not a bad thing. i was 21 when i had my son, my mum was same when she had me. my sons grandmothers are 42 and 45

*yes i mean lol

Had my first at 36 and I dont feel like an "old mum" im fit and healthy that's what matters not a number!!

Younger than me!

I just had my first…i’m 46.

Nope. My grandmother was having babies all through her 30s. She had her 12th and last at 40. After 40 is old to be having kids IMO.

I feel old all my friends have full grown almost adults leaving or left school.

With my youngest I was under a consultant as at 35 I'm deemed an older mom 😑

I had mine at 33 and 37, I don't think I am old :)

I consider mums in their early 20s young.

My mom had me at 42 soo

I’ve had mine at 32, 34 and 35. I worry I’m old too. Kinda changed this pregnancy because of the “35 year old mark.”

Nope I think average age in the uk is like 31/32 now and for men it’s even older, in big cities it rises to like 36/37. Maybe 30/40 years ago you’d be classed as an older mum but my friends and family didn’t start having kids until late 20’s early 30’s I think it’s more unusual to see younger mums these days.

Old is like 50 yr old

I had my first at 33, not old at all

I had my 1st at 17 and my 6th baby at 33 i feel like been a mom in my 30s appreciate all the little things more in my head im still 17 dont feel old at all x
