Thanks for all the replies everyone! I know there's no way I felt ready to be a good parent in my 20's- I feel much better prepared now in my 30's as the partying days are (mostly) over :) It's good to hear that others had the same thoughts and have successful little babies!

My boyfriend looks super young and is super fit, makes very healthy choices at 44 - so age didn't even cross my mind.  Age ain't nothing but a number!

Enjoy your journey hun!  I wish you the very best!

I am 34 and 12 weeks pregnant. This will be my first. He is 44 has 4 previous marrage and he is extreamly excited.. My father had his last child when he was 57...

I'm 31 and my husband just turned 44.

He has a 21 year old and a 19 year old from his first marriage and now he has a 14 month old and a 3 week old courtesy of me - and he couldn't be happier :)

I'm sure he'll feel the same way. You're never too old to love a baby (and mid-40's isn't old at all).


Good luck to both of you.
