Poll question: How old were you when you had your first kid?
Edited on Mon Feb-21-05 09:37 PM by Not_Giving_Up
Just for comparison purposes...

Guys - This would be how old you were when your first child was born. (Unless you've made the National Enquirer!)

birthing process and rearing of him.

14. Ah! I bet the young one is the joy of your life. That's what people
told me about my now five-yr-old when I got pregnant at 36. I discovered the situation just two weeks before my husband's scheduled vasectomy.

Isn't life exciting?
