Now I'm 26 with an almost 2 year old. None of my friends have kids. I felt young when I was pregnant but now feel a bit older. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633502 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 10:48:24 +0000 Mrs. Pen 633502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. I was 21 when I got pregnant! I am 23 now with a one year old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633492 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 10:45:39 +0000 rachiecakes 633492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel young!<br /> I was one of the first of my friends to have a baby and I was 31 when I had DS (I'll be 33 next week). Lots of my friends had babies in the past year - right after DS was born. But I still have a good amount of friends that haven't had kids yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633475 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 10:41:56 +0000 lovehoneybee 633475@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll be 28 next month but I don't really consider myself a young or an old mom. My DH is an old dad, though, like @mrskc:'s DH he'll be 34 this year! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633457 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 10:38:17 +0000 FarmWifeGina 633457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, for having a 2- and 4-year-old at 24, I feel on the young side. Not younger than most moms that share my background, but definitely younger than all of my mommy friends here in ND. Pretty much everyone here has a 4-year degree and doesn't start a family until 24+. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633446 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 10:34:45 +0000 lilteacherbee 633446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If this baby sticks, I'll be 24 when he/she is born. I consider myself young but it's different. A LOT of girls I graduated high school with have 2 or more kids by now. The fact that I've been married almost 2 years and consider myself to be "stable" is different than most girls my age who are pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633430 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 10:31:14 +0000 mrskc 633430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was 26 when he was born and 27 now, and I feel kind of young. A lot of women in my area wait until 29-30 to have their first child. My DH is an old dad. :P He is turning 34 next month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633422 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 10:27:34 +0000 Mrs.M57 633422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was 26 when dd was born now 27. I don't consider myself a young mom, maybe average, but I am the first of my group of close friends to have a baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633416 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 10:26:36 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 633416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I became pregnant right now I would be 31 when I had my first. I do not think of myself as being a young mom especially considering my MIL had DH at 20! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633328 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 10:04:03 +0000 LuLu Mom 633328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 27 and feel like a semi-young mom just compared to the other parents at DD's daycare! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633324 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 10:02:30 +0000 stargal 633324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I fee like I am. I'm 25 and around here that's average to a little young to have kids. I look like on 16 though and get judged a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633321 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 10:01:23 +0000 .twist. 633321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I will be 26 when I have my first baby, my husband is 32. I definitely feel like a young mom. I don't think my husband feels like a young dad though, with two sons already! haha. he old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633297 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 09:52:59 +0000 cheesetomywhine 633297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do at 23. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633223 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 09:38:17 +0000 Mrsbells 633223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do still consider myself to be young although I'm 27 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633219 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 09:37:06 +0000 SAHM0811 633219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, in the city I had an infant right after turning 28... All the other moms at daycare were 35-40. </p> <p>But now that we are in semi-suburbia, most moms (at DD's school) are just a few years older than me though. And my friends my age (usually only a year or two older) mostly all have 1-2 babies now. I'm 33 with a 5 yo and a 1.5 yo... I'll still be just under 50 when my youngest is off to college. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633148 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 09:16:28 +0000 mrsmenow 633148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was 17, 23, and 27 when my children were each born. If we don't have any more kids I will be 45 when I have an empty nest! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633083 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 08:57:01 +0000 runsyellowlites 633083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm the "other" vote. When I had G I was 19, I'm now 28 (almost) &amp; had P last year. Either way yes I'm a young mom, just wasn't sure what age group to pick! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633057 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 08:47:36 +0000 cascademom 633057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't consider myself a young mom. I think of myself as a mid-30's mom. I had LO at 32 and hope to have my second one before 35. I don't think that I could have handled having kids in my early 20's, maybe my later 20's. I also didn't marry until I was 29, so we took our time with life events. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633050 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 08:44:14 +0000 su9su9 633050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not old, not young.

I had my first at 25, and this I'll be 28 with a 3 year old and a 1 year old. Most of our college friends are just now settling down and getting married, so they've got a few years before they'll catch up with us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633034 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 08:38:10 +0000 Mrs. Bee 633034@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>not too old and not too young. i had charlie at 31 and olive at 32.. now i'm 34! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633019 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 08:32:58 +0000 BKCaribBaby 633019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In my circle of friends and in certain groupings of people in NYC, I'm not particularly old at 35. I have friends who are about to have second children, but also quite a few who don't have any yet. Honestly, I don't feel old, nor do I think I look old either. I wouldn't consider myself a young mother though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad/page/2#post-633012 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 08:30:36 +0000 winniebee 633012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 32....so I don't consider myself a young mom.

So everything is learning through trial and error. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad#post-632979 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 08:19:41 +0000 anbanan15 632979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 27 now and was 25 when he was born. I don't consider either age to be a young mom, but rather an average aged mom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad#post-632963 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 08:15:35 +0000 mediagirl 632963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I'm an older mom at 35 (36 this year). I love being a mom in my 30's. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad#post-632956 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 08:12:53 +0000 oliviaoblivia 632956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just turned 32 and had my first early this year....as did just about all of my friends. In our prenatal class of 10 moms I was the youngest. Many of my high school friends are on their third or fourth now. So sometimes I feel old, sometimes young, and sometimes just right. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad#post-632948 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 08:11:10 +0000 autumnlove 632948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had my first at 32 so no but most of my friends don't have kids yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-yourself-to-be-a-young-momdad#post-632941 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 08:08:53 +0000 hilsy85 632941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsSCB: definitely not :) It's so weird to think "Oh I wish I could be a little bit older!" but i've learned to just let it go :) </p>
