Here's the age you'll become a parent according to your zodiac sign

Feeding in the middle of the night, diapers to change, buggy rides... Whether or not it's time for you to take the plunge into parenthood, the stars could well have a big part to play in this milestone. Your astrological sign influences the age at which you'll be ready to become a parent.

At what age will you become a parent?

Having a child is not a decision to be taken lightly, and if you get the chance to, you should take the time to prepare for this new role. Some people even choose never to have children, and that's a very valid decision.

However, for those who are determined to start a family, what better way to do so than to know the ideal age at which you should have your first child? In 2022 the average age at which a British woman had herfirst baby was 30. ONS statistician Amanda Sharfman explains:

We continue to see a delay in childbearing, with women born in 1990 becoming the first cohort where half of the women remain childless by their 30th birthday.

More and more women are waiting to start a family as they want to have a career before, or indeed alongside, motherhood. But 30 is just an average: everyone has different needs and desires.

Your first baby could come before or long after that! And knowing more about your star sign may well help you predict when the right time could be for you.

For example, Cancer is a very family-minded sign, but people born under this zodiac prefer to have a stable professional life before.Their reasoning is very logical; they want to be able to offer an idyllic life to their little ones, and so are more likely to become a parent a bit later in life.Scorpios, on the other hand, love solitude and wouldn't mind waiting as long as possible! It's hardly surprising, then, that they often wait until around 35 to become mothers.

Let's take a look at a few others...

Like Scorpios, those born under Taurus and Leowill prefer to wait until they're in their thirties to think about getting their hands diaper-dirty. Can you guess who in particular will wait? Gemini, a sign famed for its indecision and inability to settle down: they want to live life to its fullest before starting a family!

Conversely, Capricorns are likely to start a family in their early-to-mid twenties. A rather young age compared to the other signs of the Zodiac, but hardly surprising when you consider that this sign naturally has a lot of self confidence. Capricorns also tend to be master planners and are therefore ready for the adventures of parenthood!

Whether you're planning to take advantage of your youth to travel or work, or you're already imagining yourself surrounded by your little tribe, just remember that it is your decision.
