I am 33 and my husband and I are planning on trying to have a baby soon. We have been married for 8 years and the time was never right. I now feel that it is time I can’t wait anymore I don’t want to be to old and not be able to keep up with a baby. Is it going to be a lot harder to conceive now than it would of been in my 20s. Help I feel like I waited to long.

I actually read in a pregnancy mag that 34 is the ideal age to have a baby, so have at it! Physically, I think it is easier to have a baby in your twenties. But, emotionally and financially, I think you are better off waiting.
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
You’re considered high risk after 35.
It could be dangerous for you and the baby could have various birth defects…
I know downs sydrome is much more common when the mother is over 35.
Your eggs just aren’t viable after your mid thirties…
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
Too old is completely subjective. Some young parents think 30 is ancient while other moms are still having babies in their 60′s! (with a lot of help of course)
Personally for ME, I wanted to be done by 35 but that is my own personal opinion as it applies to my own life.
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
You are a good age to start a family long as the finances are good and you have a good plan for your up coming family. If you reach 40 [well that's a little late in life.]
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
You’re PERFECT. My mom was 34 when she had me a long time ago. 40′s are NEVER going to happen.
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
That is not too old! I conceived (very easily – third try) at 33, had my first baby at 34, conceived again even more easily the second time around (first try), and had my second at 35.
I’m sure it’s easier to keep up with babies and toddlers when you’re in your 20s, but it’s certainly doable in your 30s and beyond. Good luck!
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
33 is not too old. I think older parents are better suited to raise children.
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
You have not waited too long. Forget about asking on this Yahoo Answers. We usually have very good answers to questions. This question requires a medical opinion. Get on it and do it right away. I had my last child when I was 37 almost 38 years old. I did not plan any one of them. Yes, I was married when I had all of them. Still, I just let it occur. I think that you would be pleased to have expert information from a gynecologist. This person is trained to give you the best information that you need right now. Remember this, "If God be for us, who can be against us?" – Romans 8:31. Peace and God Bless.
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
You are definitely NOT too old to have a baby. My brother’s family was started at 40.
Your family physician is the best source to ask as the doctor knows your current medical issues and history.
Now the question is, do you know how you make babies? LOL Good luck
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
they say that women in their 40′s and higher are likely to be prone to premature delivery ,birth complications and defects in the child. But a new study has reviled that men that father a child after the age of 35 are 3 to 5 times as likely to pass on bad genes and the children are prone to autism, and learning disorders. But There also has been various cases of the mother being over the age of 50. and the mom and baby are fine, and show no complications. Also you don’t want to be 60 and you re kid be 10 years old. Good luck and go for it.
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
MYSELF….30 WOULD BE MY LIMIT TO WANT A CHILD…ADD 18=48yrs old…..WHEN YOUR IN YOUR 40"s…..YOUR JOB IS DONE, THATS WHEN ITS TIME TO BE AND HAVE FUN WITH YOUR MATE…TRAVELING ECT…
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
you have not wait too long
dont’ start with being negative
you are ready for your baby now that mean you are a smart woman who want the best for herself and for anychild that she bring to this world
Good Luck
XXX you will be pergie soon
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
If you are having a baby just because you might go into menopause tomorrow then you are too old. You are fine.
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
There’s no such thing anymore. People are getting older as far as the average for marriage and pregnancy. It won’t be harder to conceive and you didn’t miss your window… All I can say is keep trying.
Good luck!
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
Oh, honey, the timing is perfect. I am in a club for stay at home mom’s and I have several friends who purposely waited until their mid to late thirties because of the same reasons. I have a particular friend who is 42 and has a 4 year old and a 1 year old. It seems that waiting until your mid thirties is starting to be the new trend these days. I am 27 and have a 2 yr. old and we are currently trying for another. Since we want 3, I’ll probably be in my 30′s by the time little number 3 come along
It shouldn’t be too hard to conceive, but you may want to talk to your doctor just so he/she can give you particular advice. Having a child is undescribable..I wish you luck!
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
you should be fine as long as your periods are regulat you are okay just don’t try too hard that you stress yourself out relax and let nature take over ( and sex too)
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
You’re O.K. Lemme know if you need more seed.
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
when ur in ur 50s or 60s
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
Wife and I had one at 28, one at 31 and our third at 36 with no problems what so ever…..33 is perfect….BEST OF LUCK
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
33 isn’t old girl have u lost your mind? My mom had her oldest at 19 and youngest at 39. I don’t plan on having children until my 30′s if I do at all because I want to establish my career first. That is still young believe me!
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
33 is fine.
You’re still young =)
Good luck!
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
Hon, you are not too old at all!! Best wishes to you for a quick conception, and easy pregnancy, labor and delivery and a perfect little baby!!
From a grandma-aged person
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
You’re fine. I know lots of people personally who had babies in their late 30′s and early 40′s….all are fine and babies are healthy
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
after 40 is considered to have more risks than before.
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
go ahead & get pregnant now, better now than when you’re 40 years old
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
You are fine – I think this is a great time to have a baby. I think 40 is too old.
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
when it is physically impossible or incredibly difficult for you to do so. so until your 50 your pretty much in the clear…
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
you are actually at a very good age for you and the baby, doctors dont recommend it in mid 40′s, so good luck
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
i would say past 35 your shouldnt have a baby but thats just my opinion.
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
40
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
i am not sure but i always heard that if you have a child after 35 it will have problems and deformities….but i am not sure
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
45 is too old – 33 is no problem.
25. February 2011 at 7:22 pm
No, it’s not too late! I had my 1st child at 35 and my 2nd at 41. Now, I didn’t plan things that way (always assumed I’d have my family complete in my 20s, but that just didn’t happen).
It may take a bit longer to conceive than if you were in your 20s, but then again, maybe not.
You haven’t waited too long! In my opinion, you did what makes sense: you developed your marriage and enjoyed each other’s company for awhile before deciding the time was right to become parents. Don’t put yourself down for that!
I think it makes sense, because sometimes people in their 20s aren’t as mature, patient, flexible, tolerant as they think. By your 30s, you know yourself and have the wisdom and common sense to be able to deal with all the ins and outs of parenthood.
Good luck! I am sure you’ll make great parents.
