Older mums thread?

golcarlilly · Dec 26th, 2008, 04:31 AM

Hi, question to admins - any chance we could have a thread for older mums to be?

Mervs Mum · Dec 26th, 2008, 05:13 AM

Dunno what you'd call older but I'd be interested....

**Arcanegirl** · Dec 26th, 2008, 05:15 AM

Do you mean a section for older mums?

golcarlilly · Dec 26th, 2008, 05:29 AM

Yeah, just somewhere us 'oldies' can get together really and discuss our pregancies - I am 39

It would divide the forum way too much ...I don't and can't see the need for this.

Ok, thanks anyway x

I understand you could go on forever dividing and dividing so I get why you wouldnt want another one. I wonder though if its only like the teen mum section...no?? I suppose it's coz I've been a young mum and an older one too, I appreciate how different the two experiences were!

Thanks anyway tho mods

What age would you class an older Mum though?

Another thought was could it possibily offend? If you see what I mean

Do you think theres really much of a difference in experience etc I mean we couldn't have 3 tri sections etc Theres a couple of reasons behind the good of a teen section but as I've just woke up from a nap I'll shurrup because I could easily word it wrong and dig m yself a big hole

I could perhaps see use for older pregnancy (but what age would you class as older) because getting pregnant when older can have unique questions; 'but mums are mums (aren't they?) no matter what age.

Pregnancy wise, isnt that what the pregnancy club is for? Everyone can post there, including teens.
And Mums, as SC says mums are mums no matter what age
