Another s/o poll: How old is your mother?

[ereks mom]

Just curious, considering I've just realized that I am probably older than some of your mothers! :ohmy:

 

My mother is 67, born in 1943 (will be 68 later this year).

I'm 50, born in 1960 (will be 51 later this year).

 

Yes, I was born when she was only 16--four days before her 17th birthday. She got married at age 15!

[Anna Marie]

My mother is turning 66 on Saturday :001_smile:

[Pamela H in Texas]

My mom turns 55 this month. I'm 36 (37 in Dec).

[chepyl]

My mom just turned 63, I am 32. (I am the oldest in my family.)

[Daisy Mommy]

my mom is 41 :001_smile:

[Caroline]

My mom will be 71 this year. I am 41.

[Mynyel]

My mom will be 59 in December, I will be 36 in 4 days :D.

[*********]

My stepmother (who raised me, and whom I call mom, since my bio mom abandoned me) is 52. I am 32. Neither one of us has had our birthday yet this year.

 

OH MY GOODNESS! I'm not 32, I'm 33! What in the WORLD?! I swear ever since I turned 30, I simply cannot keep track of my age! I used to laugh when I was a kid, and my dad had to ask my mom how old he was.

 

I hope I'm not the only one who does this... :001_huh: :tongue_smilie:

inability to remember my birth year, apparently

[Parrothead]

There is almost exactly 20 years between my mom and me. There is almost exactly 20 years between her mom and her. I broke the trend when I waited until I was in my early 30s to have dd.

[Crimson Wife]

I'm 34, my mom is 57.

[WishboneDawn]

My mom is 71 and I'll be 38 in September.

[ereks mom]

My mother is also 67, born in 1943, and will be 68 later this year. I'm 37. :)

 

I just added this note to my original post: I was born when my mom was only 16--four days before her 17th birthday. She got married at age 15!

[Just Beachy]

My mom passed away 15 years ago, but would have turned 75 this year. I turn 46 in a few months. My girls are 11 and 9, so we waited awhile before having kids.

[DawnM]

My mother is 80. I am 45.

 

Dawn

[Daisy]

My mom and dad are 58 and I'm 37.

 

It is weird. My parents married young and had me when they were only 21. My SIL is the same age as my parents. My MIL is closer to 80. That's what happens with an oldest marries the baby in the family.

[SapphireStitch]

My mom is 81 and I'll be 49 next month.

[tkdkidsmom]

My Mom has been gone 17 years. She would have been 67 this year; I am 47.

[elegantlion]

My mom is 74. I'm 44, the baby.

[nono]

My mother is 80. I am 45.

 

Dawn

 

Similar. My Mom is 83 and I'm a year older than you.

[vonfirmath]

My mom is 66, born 1945

I'm almost 38.

[SkateLeft]

My mom is 60, and I'm 39.

 

She looks so much younger though. You'd never guess she's 60. She's a marathoner who regularly places in the top 3 in her age group at races.

 

I want to be just like her when I grow up. :D

[sparrow]

My mom is 76 and I am 41. She was always the cool mom and sooooo sensitive about her age. She also looked at least 10 years younger than she was. None of my friends realized how old she was and were shocked when I started telling them I was dealing with her dementia this year. "But she's so young!" they'd say. "Eh, not as young as you probably think :001_smile:."

[OhioMom66]

My mom just turned 69 last month and I am 45. I do not think of my mom as being old, she just seems the same to me as she's always been. Sometimes I will make comments of something regarding the future and she will say "if I'm still around" and I will say "what do you mean, of course you will still be here!" I think maybe I am in denial, lol.

[k2bdeutmeyer]

I'll be 30 in November & my mom will be 54 in December.

[twoxcell]

My mom is 56. I'm her youngest child and am 27.

[OhioMom66]

My stepmother (who raised me, and whom I call mom, since my bio mom abandoned me) is 52. I am 32. Neither one of us has had our birthday yet this year.

 

OH MY GOODNESS! I'm not 32, I'm 33! What in the WORLD?! I swear ever since I turned 30, I simply cannot keep track of my age! I used to laugh when I was a kid, and my dad had to ask my mom how old he was.

 

I hope I'm not the only one who does this... :001_huh: :tongue_smilie:

 

LOL, I am just like you! Ever since my 40th birthday I can never remember how old I am. When my birthday rolls around each April I keep thinking to myself "now how old am I right now?? Ok, so how old will I be on my birthday??" I just laugh at myself and think I'm a dork!!

[Mom22ns]

My mom died almost 8 years ago. She was 70, so she'd be 78 now. I'm 44.

[LibraryLover]

I can *never* remember how long I've been married. Throws me every. single. time. I'm asked. When I've said the wrong # to someone, dh sweetly tells me later, you said xx, but it really is xx. He is a very understanding man!

[ccm]

My mother is 84 years young and still looks fantastic. My dad is 85 and just had knee-replacement surgery after years of hiking and climbing mountains in the U.S. and Switzerland.

 

My father-in-law is 91 years old and is right this moment out rowing on Lake Winnipesaukee against a fairly good breeze. He is amazing! My mother-in-law is 88 years old.

[theYoungerMrsWarde]

My mother is 45, I am 25. As a kid I also thought grown-ups who couldn't remember their age was weird, since I could have told you how many months it was to my next birthday :001_smile: But ever since I turned 21 I have to think about it when asked. I guess after a certain point, you stop thinking about your age...

[Lolly]

I hadn't thought about that! It actually explains a thing or two... :lol::lol: My parents are 72 and 82.

[Negin]

My mom is 71 and I'm 43.

[Crissy]

My mom was married one month after she turned 17. She had her first baby at 17, her second baby at 18, her third at 20 and her fourth at 22.

She would have turned 62 this week.

[Ellie]

My mother was only 15 when I was born, bless her heart. She passed away...um...I forget how long ago...seems like an eternity :-( Anyway, she'd be celebrating her 76th bday this September (and now you know how old I am :lol:).

[Impish]

I was born just under a month before her 20th birthday.

[Bug's Mom]

My mom died 6 years ago, but would have turned 90 this year. I'm 44...the youngest of 8. My oldest sibling is nearly 20 years older than me. The oldest 2 have sons my age and one who is a year and a half older than me. Crazy.

 

My dad died when I was in kindergarten...he would be 98 this year!

[Denisemomof4]

if my parents were alive today, mom would be 70 and my dad would be 69. I'm 48.

 

My parents died at 67 and 68, 11 months apart. :sad:

[Hunter's Moon]

My mom turned 55 in April. I turn 18 in October.

[jewellsmommy]

My stepmother (who raised me, and whom I call mom, since my bio mom abandoned me) is 52. I am 32. Neither one of us has had our birthday yet this year.

 

OH MY GOODNESS! I'm not 32, I'm 33! What in the WORLD?! I swear ever since I turned 30, I simply cannot keep track of my age! I used to laugh when I was a kid, and my dad had to ask my mom how old he was.

 

I hope I'm not the only one who does this... :001_huh: :tongue_smilie:

 

You're not alone. :D

Last night I had to ask dh how hold he was and then how old I was! :lol: I am 31. For yrs my dh was 27 and then 33 (in my head, anyway :001_huh:.) And, my mother is 51.

[The Girls' Mom]

My mom would have been 56, and I'm 35. She died at 41, 4 weeks before I found out I was pregnant with my oldest.

[Element]

My mom is 52 but she has always looked young. ;)

[jewellsmommy]

There is almost exactly 20 years between my mom and me. There is almost exactly 20 years between her mom and her. I broke the trend when I waited until I was in my early 30s to have dd.

 

 

Same here. My mom turned 20 and I was born one month later. I was 22.5 when dd was born.

[Nakia]

Same here. My mom turned 20 and I was born one month later. I was 22.5 when dd was born.

 

And here. My mom turned 20 in October '77, and I was born in November. I was also 22.5 when my first dd was born. :D

[HSMother]

My mother is 79 and I'm 40. I'm the youngest of 4 kids.

[Joyofsixreboot]

If she were alive she would have been 84 in May. She and my father were married 14 years and had given up on children when I appeared(followed by my brother 2 years later). Our parents were usually older than our friends' parents but they really cherished having us. I still miss her though she died 18 years ago when I was pregnant with number 2.

[katilac]

I'm 44, mom is 73. And even tho' she just came for coffee this morning, I'm going to have to call her again today, because those of you who lost your moms so much earlier have made me very thankful that she is here.
