Random Thoughts

My birthday is on Monday - I am going to be 28 years old. I know alot of my friends were upset when they turned 25 but not me - I had a house and I was just married - I thought I was where I should and want to be at the age of 25 but now that I am turning 28 that is a different story. I wanted to be a mom by the time I was 28 - maybe even have two children by now. We have been TTC for three years now and it depresses me - this is not where I want to be at 28 - not at all.

I know everyone is going to say - well your young - blah blah blah. My mother had me when she was 32 - and I always said I wanted to have my children at a young age - mid twenties. I always said how old my mom was and that I never wanted to be like that. I wanted to have my kids young so I could be a young mom. Now that is never going to happen. Plus the fact that my mom died at the age of 51 when I was 19 years old. I know that will probably not happen to me but it is always in the back of my mind. I always think that maybe if she would of had me a little younger that then I would not have been so young when I lost her.

I feel ya. I turn 30 in November. 30! My mom had me when she was 35 and my sister when she was 40, and like you, I always had the "old" mom. I wish you the best of luck!

I hear ya! I just turned 28 this year, too. Every year that I get closer to 30 is another reminder of where I wanted to be vs. where I am. No "oh well you're still young" is coming from me. I get it! (((HUGS)))
