I win, I win, oh cr_p how come I can't win anything good. :laughing: I am 43 and about to be a dad for a second time in Feb 07.

Funny I don't feel any different to when I was a teenager and I still like my toys only now they cost a whole heap more than when I was a kid.:devil6:

My DP is 43 for a 1st time dad, 44 in October and he wants another 2 kids!

I'm 37 clock ticking fast, I don't want to have kids in my 40's though, so trying to convince him 2 is enough for us.

DP was a lucky catch was single until he was 37, never married and no kids.

He is loving being a dad! :smiliedance:

My DP will be atleast 43 when he has his first. (IF).
People think he's 33 all the time.

DH is 31 and is extremely upset that hes in his thirties. He also gets told he looks early 20s. One person told him that he looked younger than me and he'll never forget that (im 9yrs younger) Funny, because people say i look 16 sometimes! Go figure. He only acts his age 5% of the time though.

My DP is 39 and for his birthday last year he jokingly put his order in for a baby before he was 40. We both laughed like drains because we "knew" it was never going to happen, yeah har har har har har.

:eek: bubby arrives in August, a couple of months before DP turns 40!!

Like lros34 I got lucky. DP was 36 when we met and just about to turn 37, never married and no kids and not a jerk and not mentally unstable...he just hadn't met the right girl yet.

Then I came along and thought "yep, I'll have that" and completely turned his life upside down. In a good way I hope... :D

He seems happy enough!

I have been with my DP for 10 years....11 this year I am 24 just and he is 27 we have a DD - 5 and a DS - 3 1/2 and one in the oven due in Jan.

I feel like I'm 40 and he feels like he's still 18. He reckon's I'm aging for the both of us, I'm keeping him young. HA!

Please tell me it get's better. My bones already ache :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

My DH is 32. I guess that's average when you have 3 kids.

My dad was 54 when I was born and I think that is selfish, because I had to grow up without a dad as he passed away when I was 10.:crying:

My DH turns 47 (I know his age in the signature is wrong) in October. He was nearly 43 when DS#1 was born and 46 when DS#2 was born. I'd like to have another one but he reckons he's too old... he says things like "when James is 18 I'll be 65"!! :rolleyes:
the good thing is that he's a great, hands on Dad who has the travel and partying out of his system and didn't have any ex-wives or kids when we met.:smiliedance:

my dad ,was 56 when i was born , so that makes him 84 now , and he is still fighting fit,and full of energy,, ppl always thought he was my grandad and my mum is 20 yrs younger but this is his secret to longevity i think.
