A Day of Van Life & Fears of the Future💭😌 #vanlife #vanlifers

I had my first, naturally at 46. Everyone is unique.

I had mine at 38 and 40. They’re both healthy. I was insulin dependent diabetic, overweight, with high blood pressure. 15 years later we’re all doing well, and they are the best thing that ever happened to me. You can do it!

My mom had me at 36 and my brother at 39. You can do this. Don't doubt yourself!! ❤❤

I work in OBGYN research at a big hospital. I see patients everyday solidly into their 40s, having their first, second+ babies. If you feel healthy, and your doc is managing you well, girl go for it, you got this.
Ps. A lot more fertility issues are related to sperm quality than we previously realized.

I had my son at 45! He was a surprise 😮
The point is we can plan all we want, but there are plans that we have NO control over. Live your best life, take the steps needed to give you the best chance to make your plan happen, and the rest is just fate. Manifest your dreams. I think you can do it! Living vanlife actually prepares you for life's plans vs our actual plans. Roll with it! You got this!!! 💕

Hello! My lovely mother had me at 40 and my brother at 42. Multiple doctors doubted but we’re here! Wishing you luck!

My mother was 43 in 1997 when she had my little brother. No complications with the pregnancy whatsoever. He was born 7.5lbs, happy & healthy. Still well and alive today. Dont let anyone put fear into you!!

Thank you so much for sharing this. I (33 F) am currently going through 3 years of unexplained infertility . Had my first IVF transfer a few days ago and hope for the best. Even if I do get pregnant- infertility changed my soul completely.
It took everything from me. My money, my sexuality, my friends, the lightness of life...but it taught me also so much about empathy and being a better person to other people. There are so many people fighting silent fights and showing up with a smile everyday doing their best. Lets not judge eachother. There is no right time, there is no right path. Every Woman is unique.

I love how you live your life and really wish your children will come to you soon.

As a 52 year old with a 12 year old, trust me, you can totally do it!! Worry will only hinder you. Stay happy and positive 😊

My mom had me at 39 and my bro at 41 u can do it girl! Follow ur dreams dont feel pressured by anyone else

[jamminmekaj]

I just turned 35 three weeks ago and feel all of this. I can’t imagine having kids anytime soon. 40 is looking like a possible start. These comments are so encouraging though. All will be well 🧘🏾‍♀️ ✨

I couldn't get pregnant 'til I've got into medical traetment. My son was born perfectly healthy, I was 47. All that energy is great with a kid🎉

[KateBlakeney-]

I was told the same thing by doctors. I’m now almost 42 with 5 kids. I thought maybe we’d get to have one or two at the most because we were “running out of time”. We were blessed with twins and never stopped. I feel better in my forties than I did in my late twenties. Kids keep you young!

[llewellynpepper]

My mum had me when she was 38 and I'm fine. Having kids that late back then was considered diabolical but really it is the best time to have kids. Mum said to me that she much preferred having me in her late 30s compared to having my sister in her late 20s as she felt her body was much more prepared to have kids and wasn't as stressful for her body.

[heidilorincz]

I had my first child at 38 and it was a wonderful pregnancy! Don’t let people tell you your biological clock is running out! You’re healthy and when you’re ready you’ll know! 😘

[tigerbunny]

I'm a disabled mother with joint tissue issues. I had my 3 youngest when I was 38. 40 and 42. Dr's don't know everything. My frued Di had her youngest when she was 47.

[attelid]

There are many ways to become a parent, if that is truly what you want. You don’t have to give birth to love, raise, or guide a child. And it’s equally okay if you never have children at all. We each have our own path. The beauty of life is learning to follow it with faith—trusting that it will take you exactly where you’re meant to go.
Enjoy the journey

I know women having babies in their forties with no problems. Don’t let the system labels get you down. If it’s meant to be, it will happen 🙏🏻

[katrichards]

I couldnt have kids. I was a couple years older than you when I had to have a hysterectomy and was thrown into menopause. However, my mom had her last child when she was 42. The dr told her she could never have kids. He eas wrong. Everyone is different. Much love and peace to yall. ❤

[FionaSmith-nzhb]

You will be the best mum and dad cause the maturity will shine through and you will help each other, my auntie had a baby at 49, please don’t listen to the negative Nora’s, strength preserves with a positive mindset 🥰❤️
