I had my baby girl 7 weeks ago at 36. I personally hated being pregnant but having her now was worth everything I dealt with.
-I was super sick up until halfway through 2nd trimester
-we had different blood types so I had to get the Rhogam shot during pregnancy and right after birth
-had to have 2 anatomy scans because she was measuring small at 1st one and had some fluid around a kidney (luckily it was nothing)
-gestational diabetes (able to control with diet)
I feel like i was hit with 1 thing after another and was just over it at the end, but again my daughter now (even with the lack of sleep ) is worth it all!

I just had my second at 26 and I intend on having a big age gap before having a 3rd as j have 2 close in age. You are not old ❤️

Infact most pregnant mothers are between 29-37 x

I think it just depends on your overall health. I was 33 when I got pregnant with my son and 34 when I had him. I was sick most of my pregnancy and very sore despite being physically fit and healthy. Im turning 36 next year when we will plan to try for another and im in a similar position health wise when I got pregnant the first time. Im hoping the experience will be similar this time around but you never know
