Darn it!! My mum was 19 when she had my eldest brother, 20 when she had the next, 22 when she had my sister and 26 when she had me! :0( However, my ggg gran had my gg grandad when she was 39. Gg grandad was standing outside hhis shop when he was killed by enemy action in the war - he was 90. His daughter, g gran was 26 when she had my gran, who 'gave up' on life aged 99 - so genetically there's hope for me yet. maggie

RESULT My mum was 22 when she had me. However my nicotine habit has probably put paid to any advantages she gave me through giving birth younger. Sorry Mum xx

If she was under 25 when she gave birth to you, research indicates the odds on your living to be 100 are doubled.
