Congratulations.
I’m 49 with a 14 and 10 year old.
Being older does give you a better sense of what is really important to teach them.
And, it does keep you active.

Congratulations to you! Hope you both get the girl you're hoping for, but if not, your boys will surely love to have a baby brother. Smile

Awesome, congrats! I’m 52 and have two daughters, 11 and 1.5 years old. I definitely have more patience and calm but lacking more in the energy and sleep department. I too fear leaving them too early but we provide a pretty comfortable life or them and they are happy girls with lots of family and deep roots in our country community. Make the years you do have with them stellar and provide for the, once you’re gone. Rinse and repeat. Enjoy.

It's not easy being me

I guess I fit this category. I'm both a somewhat younger dad (age 28) and a somewhat older dad (age 41).
Six kids, thirteen years from oldest to youngest.
Oldest two 15 months apart, then a five year gap, the younger four "sort of" 2 years apart, more or less.

The oldest two daughters love to tell the youngest two kids how tough they had it growing up, and how lenient we are now (well, we're worn down in our late 50's...).
The youngest turned 18 last week, & is the last not finished with or in college. She graduates high school this May.
Sort of funny that the second oldest (will be thirty this year, & is the head volleyball coach at her old high school, same HS that youngest is a senior, along with same HS other sisters, their mother, grandmother & great-grandmother graduated from) has gotten asked if her younger sister is her daughter. And I know that some people have thought that I'm our youngest daughter's grandfather on occasion. (I've been asked a couple times).
Well, I became "prematurely" gray in my early 40's...

So, congrats (& don't ever be offended if someone asks if your youngest is your grandchild-after the first time it becomes sort of funny!).

Congratulations!

As to your older Dad question, I am 45 with a 4 year-old son that turns 5 on 01/20 and a 6 year-old son that turns 7 on 02/19. I turn 46 at the end of March.

Some days I really feel my age, but generally the kids are keeping me young and more active than my calendar years would suggest. I don’t move any slower than I did 7 years ago but my joints occasionally protest. If I can do it, You can do it. I hope #3 is a healthy girl for you.

Congratulations. I had my daughter at 39, I’m 40 now, so I guess I’m on the older end of the spectrum but I pride myself in staying relatively fit and taking good care of myself. I think as long as you do that, age or at least the ages we are talking about, isn’t that big of a deal. My wife and I decided on only 1 child long ago and we are sticking to that plan, but I don’t really feel any worse at 40 than I did at 39. People are living longer nowadays as long as they are taking care of themselves so stay on top of your health and fitness and it shouldn’t be a big deal.




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
