I think now is a perfect time! You know they say if you don't use it, you lose it. I believe the same hold true for fertility. So I agree with your hubby, don't wait too long. Having a baby with 2 older kids to help you enjoy him or her will be so awesome for you all! Good Luck and God Bless! P~

People have children at the age of 47. My dad is 38, and has my 1 1/2 year old brother and i am 20.( My mom and him also have a 15 and 12 year old) I think as long as you want the child and that you are not old go for it. Plus you have a two year old so there wouldnt be much of an age difference.

I too am 33 with 2 boys ages 12 and 9 and been on the pill for 6-7 years. I just remarried and my new hubby who is 31 has no children of his own and we are ttc. I think, i will be too old if we wait too long. For myself, 35 is possibly a little old. But i know everyone is different. My husband doesn't think your too old until 40ish, so it depends. I wish you luck!!!

I would. Im 30 right now and wouldnt have anymore after this. I have a 9, 7 , 3 year old and one on the way. But if I was like you and had 2 older children I would probably consider it. I just really wouldnt have any after 35.

this is your life, if I was still leaving in the US no
since I move away yes, i am 37 and pregnant (5 wks)
but you are only 33 and that is till young so you go have your baby beside I am sure that the older ones will be a great help
(at least in a year you can run to the store while the 15 year babysit)
Good luck

Your age is fine. The only thing is that if you were using the pill for birth control you must wait for 4 months for the effects of it to go away - after stopping it.

Remember, to get pregnant you must have sex on a day that your eggs are being released.

After the 3rd day from the day that menses started put a thermometer into your mouth and check your body temperature every morning before you start turning in bed. The best time is at about 4 a.m. Maintain a chart. You will find that on one day the body temperature drops from 1/2 degree to one degree. This is the day that your eggs are being released. If you want to get pregnant this is the day that you must have sex. Tell your husband to ejaculate on his inward thrust so that the sperms will shoot deep inside.

After having sex you must stay in bed for about 30 mins with your knees bent up with a pillow under your buttocks so that the sperms will not pour out - to enable them to travel up.

Get your husband to save his sperms in the testacles for at least 3 days before sex to enable them to mature well to do their job.

i'm 36 and the mother of 3 daughters, 14,13 and 3 almost 4 . my 2 oldest are from a previous marriage. i met my current husband 5 years ago(hes 38), and he has a son from a previous relationship. we thought about it and decided to have a baby together. yes it was scary at first, because we were going to start all over. after 9 1/2 years of having an IUD, i had it removed. the following month, my b-day, we found out we were pregnant. my 2 oldest were a little distant at first, since it had just been them two all those years. to help ease this whole idea, i took them to my first sonogram. when the Dr asked them how they felt about of having a baby sister, they broke down and cried. along w/ my husband they helped me alot during my pregnancy, all 3 were there for the birth a day after x-mas. since then, they have been inseparable! and she keeps us all feeling young! no regrets for starting all over. so if you have it in you, and you have all the support, go for it...God bless and good luck.....

Definately, think of how much more patient and wise you are now. How much you will enjoy this child knowing everything you know now. I am 35 and have been trying for my first since I was 32. I definately wouldn't wait any longer, just in case it takes some time.

Good luck!!

33 is not bad my mother had me and my sister at ages 34 & 36 and were both fine!! Go for it .. medically speaker pregnancy after 35 is not good because there are more risks and what not..

good luck mommy!!
