    At 24, Mum was a SAHM with a 2 yr old and a 5 yr old, probably missing me on the days I was in school.

    I believe she was with my dad and they were backpacking/living in Europe & the Middle East. She wouldn't have my oldest brother for another 4 years....not sure if my parents were even married yet ? .....

    When my mom was my age, she hadn't yet met my dad and was living at home with her parents and working as a legal secretary! She was dating another guy at the time. My parents met two years later, and only dated for 6 months before they got married.

    At 30 my mom had one child (me!) and was not too far off from getting pregnant with my sister. I think she was still working as a teacher at that point before having 3 more kids and being a SAHM.

    Such an interesting thread!
    @lawbee11: I snorted my coffee! Too funny...although maybe not actual,y funny...Your mom sounds cool though!

    Mom @ 31: married (27) pregnant with her first LO (my bro) and teaching kindergarten

    Me @ 31: married (29) and have a 3 month old and am an SLP (on mat leave)

    We are actually pretty similar at this stage.

    At 38, my mom had a 16 year-old (me) and a 12 year-old. She'd just broken up with a long-term boyfriend and bought a small condo for the three of us, and was working in sales.

    Me at 38: pregnant for the first time, married and working in marketing.

    At 29, my mom was pregnant with me! I was her first, after one miscarriage. She and my dad had bought a small house, and she was working as an ER nurse.

    At 29, I am pregnant with our baby due in April, after two miscarriages. We still rent, and I am still in school, but I am happy!

    ETA: My mom had 5 kids in her 30s. Growing up, I always thought 30 was when people started to have babies! After I got married, it seemed late, but apparently, for me, it's just right
