What's the best age to have a baby?



Answers:
I don't believe there is a "best age" to have baby. Any age can be right as long as the parent or parents are mentally, physically, emotionally and financially stable and ready to bring a child into this world. If you are trying to concieve then I wish you luck!! :)
25
probably when it is about nine months old
ohhh difficult one, i'd say early 30s, might have another myself soon.. (I'm cracking on 48!!) LOL LOL
20-30
20_24
It depends on the maturity of the male and female. I would wait until you have an opportunity to enjoy yourselves after marriage. Then settle down with kids. It will change all of your priorities in life.

i reckon early 20's is a good age.

not to old to play with the kids and still had time to go clubbing and enjoy yourself
when you can afford one financially and emotionally
l8 20s early 30s
they say within the next 10-15 yrs. after a girls first period.
The best years for having a baby are between 25 and 35. Prior to that, the mom still has maturing to do and after that, there can be more complications for the mother.
Physically? 18yrs

Emotionally? 22yrs

Socially? 25yrs
I don't think there is one set age to have a baby! I think it is when you and your husband is ready to be parents, you will both know when that time comes.
I would say anywhere between 26-30 for your first.
between 21 & 35. You dont want to have kids too late because older parents' kids tend to be spoiled rotten, and its hard for the parent(s) to controll them
DEPENDS ON THE INDIVIDUAL, MATURITY, SOME FINANCIAL, MEDICAL CARE, IF A PERSON IS CAPABLE OF TAKING CARE OF ANOTHER PERSON, FEEDING, CHANGING, LOVE, AFFECTION. NOT EASY. I WAS 19 WHEN I HAD MY FIRST, GLAD I HAD THEM AT A YOUNG AGE, SOME WOMEN CAN'T DEAL, EVEN AT 35.
25. i was 25 when i had my third baby and then i was really ready and a better mom.
There is not a age limit.
depends on persons maturity
It depends on the woman and her situation. I'd say anytime between 23 and 35.

The best age to have a baby is when you have one. You're never completely "ready". There will never be enough money, a big enough house, a perfect relationship with your husband, the best time in your career, etc.

I had my daughter when I was 30 and I thought it was the best age for me. Now I'm 32 and pregnant again. It's also a pretty good age.

If you're married and secure, 28 is a good age. I wouldn't wait much past 34 if you're having your first.

Good luck!
Honestly, and call me conservative, but (if you are not married) I would wait until your late 20s, or 30, 31, 32. I know that seems "old" but trust me, when you reach that age you wont feel old. And at that age you are more mature, and financially stable. You wont feel that you have to struggle as hard, and you can use all of your younger years to go to school, work, buy your car, townhouse, and save your money. Trust me, it will work out much better when you plan and wait!
When you're in a stable marriage and can support the baby- age doesn't really matter.
I agree with Al..mid to late 20s. Not too young, not too old!! I had my daughter 2 months before my 26th birthday, it was perfect! I had several years for myself, and I won't be too old when she's grown!! I also was much more mature at that age also. I'm pregnant again now at 38, and I tell ya, it's rough on your body!! Many more complications at this age too to worry about. I had older parents, and I tell you.there was a BIG generation gap..that wasn't fun either! So I think 25-28 is absolutely perfect!
I don't think there's a generically good number. When you're ready to provide a good home to a child is probably the best answer. It's nice to have children early, sometimes, because you will have more of your life ahead of you after you are done supporting your kid. That would allow you to save more for retirement, do more after retirement, and enjoy your grandchildren more. Some benefits of starting the family later are the chance to enjoy your youth more, save up money to provide more to your child, and probably a host of others. When you're ready, you're ready though. Just make sure that you love and respect your child and enjoy each other.
haven't you heard that age is just a number? there isn't a best age to have a baby. you should think about if you are mature enough to handle all the responsibility that comes with having a baby.
Id start it at zero, and let it grow up from there.
How longs a piece of string? This is an impossible question to answer.

I'm having my first at 34 (not through choice, I've been trying for nearly 12 years!). I've had a really easy pregnancy (apart from bad morning sickness but anyone can get thats, thats not age related), tested low risk for everything (despite my *cough* "advanced" age) and am really having an easier time of it than some of the 21 year olds I know. I'm a trained dancer and very healthy.

My mum had her kids at 36 and 42 (again not through choice, she didn't settle down with my dad until she was over 30). She had no problems at all with her pregnancies, neither me or my brother had anything "wrong" with us at all.

My gran had hers at 36, 38 and 40 (same as my mum - didn't marry until later). Three healthy babies, nothing wrong with any of them!

My BF's mum had him at 19. I'd have to say that although my mum and gran had their babies later they had much easier pregnancies and births than my BF's mum did at 19!

It depends on many things. How healthy you are, what your goals are in life etc.

Not everyone is decrepit and old at 35+ and automtatically going to have a bad pregnancy and birth experience, anymore than everyone who has a baby at 18 will have a fantastic easy time of it. We are all different. And its much better to wait until you've at least been working for a few years and have somewhere to live and an income of your own to look after the baby with rather than getting pregnant while you're still really young and having to depend on your family or the Government for everything.
I would say it depends on single/married.
financially stable
living arrangements
educational background
religion
And most importantly are you ready for that commitment if you are satisfied then i would say um um um um um never !!! just kidding 31
