Help answer this question below.
This answer is clearly going to be different for everyone.
I have 2 grandchildren under two years old. They are completely awesome, and I am crazy about them... They have confirmed for me, however that having a child after 30 is going to be tiring. I am a young grandfather, but even so - 2 toddlers can wear me out faster than Grant took Richmond.
So, if I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing. I had all of my kids by the time I was 23 - and now I am still young enough to enjoy them as adults.
If someone were to suggest that I would have another child in my forties??? I'd gouge out my testes with a butterknife, join a monestary and take a vow of celebacy.
if I'm thinking with my heart then probably anytime up to 40
if I'm thinking with my head then 35
When ever I am pregnant...although I am 48, if I found out I was pregnant it would be now...if at 50 I got pregnant....it would be then....out of the 4 bandits I gave birth to, only one was planned...LOL...by the way...I am not trying to get pregnant and do my best to prevent it...but nothing if full proof...except abstinence... but ask Jesus' mother how that worked for her....LOL....
I had this conversation with my ex g/f. Essentially. I said I didn't want to be in my 60's when my kid was graduating from high school. I also said there was a big risk to her and the child. We were both 44 at the time of the conversation. She didn't say much. I suppose that is part of the reason she is my ex g/f.
i wouldnt have any after 35. im hoping i have all my kids before im 30. that way i can adopt children and be a foster mom when my youngest is old enough to understand that these children have been thru alot and need help and love and for them not to influence him/her the wrong way.
i dont want kid till im 30 but maybe 35 my oldist
will need to be in my thirtys now as i have wasted lots of time on the wrong kind of woman
I wouldn't go any longer than 35.
For me it would be no later than the 30's. But each person sees it dofferent. My reasoning is that you do not want to be too old to be able to keep up with the child and really enjoy them.
NEVER... peace!!!
Well for me I said 40. Because I am looking I would like to be around to enjoy them and see them grow up and have kids and even see there kids. If I have at 40 or early I might be around to see all that. I have family had member who kids in late 50's and early 60's and I think that just a little crazy.
I have no kids but I told my husband that I am not having any kids after 40. I kinda wish I already had them. So I can still be young when they are older. Like my mom, She was only 12 when she had me. So is 35 and I am 23 and married myself. My mom stop having kids when she was 22.But its really up to you and how you feel. My great grandmother was till having kids at 55.
i would not consider getting pregnant after 48
I would not want to father a child after the age of 50.
The thought of a child graduating high school when I'm 68 or older doesn't seem like a good idea.
what is the best way to get pregnant fast???

Does being sick while ovulating and having sex make chances higher of conceiving?

You have to be careful Duckie, God has a funny sense of humor...Maybe you could join one of those monasteries where they brew beer.
