    Out of interest, how young or old were you when you had your first child? It would be interesting to see the age profile of the boardsies as regards their progeny.

    10 days shy of my 21st.


  • Registered Users Posts: 441 ✭✭brown*eyed*girl


    I was 17 when I had my daughter and 27 when I had my son. My Mam was 19 when she had me and I made her a Nanny/Grandmother when she was 37 :eek: Everyone thinks I'm my daugthers sister but she loves having a young Mammy and so do I. I'm finishing having children now though and very happy with my boy and girl.

    Also I was in sixth year when I was pregnant on my daughter. She was a few weeks old when I did my Leaving Cert and I can remember it like it was only yesterday. Mixing studying and night feeds wasn't too hard!

    The age ranges (female) here for a first child seem to be between 17 and 32 but the most common in their mid-twenties. What does this prove though?


  • Registered Users Posts: 197 ✭✭hazeler


    I was just turned 18!
