Assuming we have more, I'd like number two to be here before 35. This is both because I don't want them to be too far apart in age and because I'd like to have the option for number three before I'm 40.

That's a good plan.

The wife is 10 years younger than I am.

Hadn't realized that Yachtie was such a baller.

.. And congrats on this!

"sleep"???

I am interested in this concept of yours. Please, do tell me what that is. The fact that the new one is a girl means I won't be sleeping for the next 25 years, as I lie awake in bed clutching a shotgun, ready at a moment's notice to jump up and make swiss cheese of any gentleman callers at the door.

I was 29 with my first, and have 3 more. At 36 I am just about worn out keeping up with the kids.
I think that had I started now I would have had fewer just because I would not have the energy
to be the kind of dad I want to be.

40 and 43.

And no, it was not my idea.

But I am warming to it ...

My wife and I were both 31 (just a few weeks from 32) when our daughter was born.

nice screenname!

24 for me. That was mindbendingly tough. But now so many years down the line kid is full grown and I only remember the happy moments. Certainly at the time I did NOT have my finances together.
Raised the kid as a single father, for the most part.

Fellas who have kids in your later years - you have hopefully had time to put your finances together, but you now lack youth to chase those little rug rats around.

It's not fair either way.

I think it is harder than ever to raise kids in today's world. Costs are out of control and the world is such a (more) dangerous place, now.

20 years ago the age of 26.

Ready for another. My father had me in his mid 40s.

My wife is not so keen...

37 wife was 40 this was after three miscarriages so decided not worth the risk with downs to try again.

First starting trying in earnest at 33.
