I think mid to late 20's is the best time for most people. But it is up to the mom to be, also in your case if you live in the city babys have a way of you wanting a "suburban" lifestyle so that needs to be thought about as well

there are models agency that use pregnant models shoot if they drop u bc of ur pregnancy use them DO NOT WAIT if u want one have one bc if u wait it will never happen. I had mine at 20 years old. Do what u want if u think u can handle the responsible then go for it. Losing the fat from pregnacy is not that hard if u have the right diet and right equiment to use and im sure your agency will provide that for you to help u. So i would not worry about that.
The pain is not bad they have epidurals now so you do not feel a lthing and u are a wake so pain is nothing now a days. I would not worry about pain you forget all about if u even have any once that baby is in ur arms you forget all what u went through to make him/her come out. So my advice to you is dont wait if u want one have one. Just make sure you can provide for your little one.
GOOD LUCK TO YOU.

I am not a woman, but I like to share with you, that sometime ago I read an article saying that if you delivering a baby while you are young, around 20 years of age, it will give benefits to the baby to have a chance of gaining the old age. For woman delivering a baby, advisable not more then 30 years old. Worry to have a baby, you should not, if you are proud to be a woman. Being prety it just a while, being a woman with a child, it is a blessing.

In your 20s is definitely the best time or early 30s, after age 34 you are considered to be at a higher risk for any abnormalities or problems. If you are worried about the strain on your body, make sure you apply lotion everyday to any areas where strech marks could occur, and exercise during pregnancy. You should be able to bounce back pretty easily.

Hello,
I would say in your 30s because you are still a young woman, but not an immature young woman anymore. Now, you have lots of life lessens under your belt and you can deal with more of life's frustrations easier.
I was 34 when I conceived my twins and 35 when I delivered my twins. My twins are natural too. My grandma had fraternal twins 50 years ago. Although, I am sure my age along with my genetics was a factor in my giving birth to my precious twin girls. Oh, and I also prayed for twins since I was a little girl.
Hope this helps you............... : - O

My aunt had her first at 33 and her second at 36. Both babies were born healthy. The doctors took extra care because she was considered to be an "older" mother, but there were no real concerns about it. I think it's fine to wait - as long as you know there are risks involved once you are in your 30's. Talking to your doctor would probably ease your mind a bit.

I don't think you are ready yet. The time will be right when that is all you can think of and your yearning for a baby overrides your fears. Yes it is painful to go through labor, but the pain is not forever. It goes away. Babies are a huge responsibility and you have to be willing to put your child's needs ahead of your own. Hang in there you're still young and have plenty of time left.

now is the time for you. Pregnancy is horrible for SOME women. (I think the last 2 months are terrible for everyone though). Unless you are an avid complainer, it wont be so bad. Labor, with the assistance of the epidural is NOTHING to worry about. I have a VERY low tolerance for pain, and I dealt with the labor very well.
