SO: Husband , named Harry, since 8 years
Children (names, ages): Anna , full name: Johanna Helena Sophia, age 7.5, and Josephine, full name: Josephine Zara Emilie. She recently turned 4
What brings you to the NCB board?: My hubby is English originally, so I figured it would be fun to have some international mommy-friends too. Also, I'm 25 and it's very rare in my country (Holland) to have children already (normally not before 35..), and I noticed that in here there are a lot of other younger mommies, so that's fun too!
I see a bunch of new faces and a few familiar ones! Come introduce yourself for the first time or share you story with some of our newbies if you are a seasoned vet of NCB.

So far my introduction
Oh, and about the natural thing: in Holland it's normal to have a natural birth without pain medication. I was interested in how other cultures feel about that!

Hello all, I've been on and off the boards here for a month or so. I origanally came in looking for other over 35 moms to connect with. But I am enjoying a few other threads too.
I'm 30wks pg with my fourth child and I'm 41 yrs old.
DH is Doug, 19 yrs this Summer!
I have a 17yr boy, a 13 yr girl and a 7yr boy...so I feel like we're starting over. LOL

@Homesteadmom Welcome! I'm sure you're not the only ' older' mom here! In my country (Holland) it's very normal for women to have children past 35-40  So you would be rather rule than exception here, if it makes sense!
#4 is awesome, too! Lots of luck!
