    My mom had just turned 20, my dad was 22 (still married).

    I will be a minimum of 32, husband will be at least 36. Possibly older.

    I approve of their life and they approve of mine.
    Married to a hematopathologist seven years out of training.
    Raising three girls, 11, 9, and 2.

      My parents were 42 when I was born! I was quite the surprise. My parents thought they were finished. I have a sister 10 years older.

      Hopefully, I will be 35 when I have my first baby in 2007! DH will be 30. Keep your fingers crossed! Tick tock tick tock!

        If everything goes as planned we will be married when I am 22, DF 28 and first baby will come along when I am 23 and DF 29

        My parents were married when they were both 26, had my sister at mom 37 dad 38 and me at mom 39 dad 40 (well on his 40th birthday)

        DF's parents were married when they were both 21 and had DF (the oldest of 5) when they were 26

          We're thinking along the lines of 31 for both of us (we're 29 now and not even close to trying). Many of our non-medical friends have started about a year ago. Among those also in residency, very few have started, most are waiting until attending-hood.

          My parents were 22 (mom) and 27 (dad). I believe DH's parents were both around 25.

            Short answer: ME: 23 DS's dad:38
            this time ME: i'll have just turned 27 and DH will have turned 29

            My parents were 32 and 38

            DS' dad and i started when I was 20 but after each miscarriage I took 6-8 months before trying again and then when we did get pregnant he ran off with his ex and married her, as Borat would say.....NNNiiiiiice

                DH is 5 years older than me, so...add 5 for him.

                  Dh and I are the exact same age
                  20, 21 and 30....I would like one more, but not until he has finished at least one fellowship so I'll probably be 32 or 33 for the last one!

                    Me: 26 and 31
                    DH: 28 and 33

                    (Boy did we feel like the pregnant teens at 26 and 28 amongst the doctor/lawyer types).

                    My mom and dad and DH's parents: All 20.
