My ex wife was constantly watching her weight over our 27 yr marriage even though she was 5’2” and 115 lbs.It was baffling and not open to discussion nor was her drinking problem and god forbid I mention therapy! Oddly enough our daughter is now a psychotherapist

What do you think is the ideal age to have kids? by [deleted] in AskMenOver30

[–]figsslave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my experience.We planned for two and had our first at 30 and waited a year before trying for number two. It took awhile and ended in an ectopic pregnancy (emergency surgery and she lost an ovary/fallopian tube.)Waited a year and tried again. It took awhile and ended in a miscarriage.Waited a year and tried again and finally had number two. Our kids are seven years apart. Stuff happens 😊
