So glad somebody finally said it 🥹

Everything she said is true. I had my baby at 39 and I gave her the best, most wise, healthy, stable, mature, loving, understanding version of myself that I could possibly give. I grew up, made my mistakes, healed and blossomed before I had my baby and I have no regrets.

Another thing ppl keep ignoring is that women have ALWAYS had kids in their mid to late 30s. It just usually wasn't their first. How do people think some of our grandparents popped out double digit kids? This is nothing new. Hell, my grandmother had her only 2 (at 36 and 38)

@ all the women saying it can be dangerous to wait or it can be harder to conceive if u wait, if u treat ur temple properly you can conceive healthy babes well past 40. eat right and move ur body & ur body will be good to u

My mom had me and my sister “late” and she put us up on so much game 🙌🏾🙌🏾 love that lady

I keep tryna explain this to people. I was in a much better position to have my child in my 30s by literally EVERY measure. Mentally, financially, etc. And I was a very responsible younger woman but certain things can only come with age and experience.

My granny had all her kids after 35 and she was a great mom. As long as you and your partner are healthy/hormones are balanced there shouldn’t be any issues with conceiving

All of these things are just being a responsible adult. If you aren’t responsible in your mid to late twenties and it takes another ten year….. that’s your business. But it’s extremely unsafe and unrealistic to promote children this late in life. It can kill you.

Y'all are STILL in the comments tryna scare women. JFC

@_gemineye I’ll be 34 when my baby is born and it’s a relief to be grown, financially stable and mentally in the headspace. Can’t wait to give her the world 🥰

But let’s not let this good advice go without the very important caveat that it is MUCH harder to conceive after 35. And if you aren’t freezing eggs in your twenties or stacking enough for IVF, waiting could be devastating. Weigh all considerations& plan accordingly 🤍🤍

Agreed!

Had my first at 32 and getting ready for #2 in less than a month at 36 and I wouldn’t have started any sooner. The thought of a baby in my 20s makes me shudder but it’s been so fun and dare I say almost easy in my 30s. 10/10 would recommend waiting

I can’t wait to have another baby, this just made me so hopeful 🥹🥹

Amen!! I’ll be having my children in my 40’s and the knowledge I have is priceless

@itskayx_ Make sure your male counterpart is healthy. Bad diet, inactivity, and age can reduce the already low sperm count that younger men already have because of plastics. It won’t be women that have the issue frfr

What makes me worry about waiting after 35 is seeing my family history. But mainly seeing how my mother was since I was her 2nd and last child at 35. I'm 20 now, but seeing how tired she was growing up stuck with me. Hopefully I'll be ready in 10 years though

@tzgod3 Yessssss because they haven’t lived like I lived in my 20s … Now everybody my age trying to travel to places I’ve been when I was younger. I’m ready to be a mom now at 33!!!!

Oh yeah I said I do not want a baby until 35 or 40 honestly.

I had my son at 27. I’ll be 45 when he graduates. For me …I’m thankful because no way I could have a 6 year old right now. Also I think if you have a solid support system and all that jazz, after 35 is good for those who want to wait - just for Myself-Nope

🥰🙌🏾

@chisomstella She don’t even convinced herself lol 🗣️stop tryna tell grown folk when to have babies

@oneshapg Thank you for this cuz at 30 I feel like i should have gave up hope

Free game

Who wants to be raising toddlers while in their 40s? 🤢

They don’t want to hear you!!!!

@RickiiBobbii24 You might have the energy but do you have the patience/wisdom??

Absolutely! I had one at 23 and one at 37. She hit the nail on the head.

Look dumb

Thank you! Already there with you but good to hear it said so confidently.

Hmmm okay okay

I love this!!
