Midlife is a Great Time for Fatherhood

[Len Filppu]

When faced with first-time fatherhood at the age of 49, I didn't know whether to celebrate with champagne... or hemlock. But two kids and 11 years later, it's proved to be the best thing I've ever done.

Read my recent column in Huffington Post entitled "Five Reasons Why Midlife is a Great Time for Fatherhood at http://www.huffingtonpost.com/esther-wojcicki/for-midlife-dads-five-rea_b_871440.html or at my website www.primetimedads.com.

I'd love to hear from you about your experiences. Thank you.

That is great how you feel. There is nothing wrong with being an older father. My fiance is 10 years older than me and often worries about this.

My husband was 48 when our son was born and he is having an amazing time being a dad!
