How old was your mother when she gave birth to you?

My Mum was 24. I'm an only child, as she could not carry any other babies to full term.

She was forty and it was back in 1972 before it was "normal" to have children later in life

My mom had just turned 18 and my dad was almost 19. I was a bit of an "oops". They married a few months before I was born, on the condition that my mom graduated high school, which she did. She had 2 more kids with my dad and they divorced when I was 12. She put herself through school and now is a top level manager in a very large company. My mom always stressed to me to NOT get into the same predicament she did and to travel before having kids, advice I heeded, but unfortunately I was only able to have one child (he is the product of my 5th pregnancy... I had an ectopic pregnancy and miscarried 3 others and am unable to have more). In a way, I wish I had started sooner since I always wanted at least 2 kids, but I ended up with my stepson in my life, so it worked out!

My birth-mom was 20 when she had me- I was her THIRD child by 20 she had my brother at 15 and sister at 16!! I was 35 when I had my daughter and I hope that she follows more my lead than the other-- I would hope she finishes college, travels etc before having a child but its up to her.

My parents were seventeen. They got pregnant on purpose so they could get married. My grandfather wasn't going to allow it but my grandmother (dad's parents) begged him to let them get married because with a wife and child my dad wouldn't be drafted for Vietnam. They had my sister at nineteen, a save the marriage baby and were divorced by twenty. My family tree gets complicated after that, lol.

eta:I was 28yrs old w/eldest DD and 37yrs old when I had my twins. They are all IVF babies.
