This whole thread is enlightening. I’m in the same boat. Me 45, wife 41, daughter 4.
I thought I was the only one dumb enough to have a kid this late in life. I now know why I see so many men wandering around like zombies with that please help me look. |

There is a reason we didn’t treat women as adults in the past, it’s to give men and society the tools to deal with female emotional swings.
My wife is pre menopausal, but I have already told her she will need to get on hormone replacement. I had testicular failure 11 years ago and have been on testosterone replacement, she will have to get her hormones fixed to keep up. It’s 2021, we treat women like adults, so they need to act like one and get their hormones and attitude fixed. |

Quoted: Then chances are you will get to experience the joys of pre-teen girl puberty and wife menopause at the same time. OMG what have I done. Yup. Had our daughter when I was 42, wife 39. She was worried about the whole having kids 40+ being a risky thing. So yeah. If all goes according to plan, I'll retire as she graduates high school. Then, in my busted down, old ass form, I'll have to help her move several times. If I live that long. (Hell, it's already hard keeping up with her, and I'm just 47. )I already refer to myself as Uncle Grandpa Dad. |

The wife and I both decided when we were still dating that we would not have kids past our 20's. Our last son was born when we were both 29. We cut it close, LOL.
I made the decision after I thought about how much crap my parents put up with from me in my teens and me not wanting to be dealing with that at 50 or older. |
