Brutally honest answers...
Am I past my best?
Yes, but if you've maintained a healthy lifestyle and have good genetics you can still out younger women to shame. What matters more than the age is how old you actually look. Some 30 year olds could pass for 20 and some 20 year olds could pass for 30.
Is a 29 year old woman considered old and past her prime?
Yes you are out of your prime. You can still be attractive but you are most likely less attractive than you were when you were 21.
I'm single too... And worried about my biological clock... Am I old?
I wouldn't say you are "old" but you aren't as young as you used to be and as far as having kids I'm not an expert but I do think firtility starts to drop at your age. Not saying you should get pregnant by the next guy you meet, but if you're normally the type to sleep around, you might want to try to focus on looking for serious relationships.
Am i too old to find someone? No
Have my days of becoming a mother nearly reached an end?
No, but the older you are the harder it becomes. My mom had me and my Rotherham late in her life (almost 40) but she was initially told she want going to have kids. She had to have fertility shots. Also there's always adoption and there's no age limit on that.
Am am I going to be a lonely old lady?
There is somewhat of an ideal timeframe for having kids but you can find love at any age so no you aren't nessesarily going to be a lonely old lady.
Hell no, girl what are talking about too old. You're barely scratching of being pass your prime. At 29 most girls are just getting their shit together. College out the way, night club wild life out the way, know what kind of guy/girl you want, hopefully you're stable in you career. Are you too old for someone? Hell no that's the kind of lady a real guy is looking for. When you snag him or he pounce on you there will be plenty of babies. So the next time someone mentions a biological clock just tell you got a stop watch that's paused on single, childless. and free.
It pisses me off when guys say things like a woman is past her prime in her early 20s, well I beg to differ! Women nowadays are having babies way later in life becuase of career and school. It's never too late! 29 is still so young and there's so many men in their late 30s early 40s who are single and would love to marry and start a family with women like you. I'm a firm believer of people starting later in life to have kids due to maturity and higher earning potential. Don't listen to people. My aunt married at 36 and had first baby at 37. She had a healthy little girl and is so happy with her life. I had a boyfriend who's mom remarried in her 40s! She had two kids aged 42 and 45. You have time! Don't let the "biological clock" myth get you down. It's starting to become a thing of the past actually.
You're not too old. I wouldn't be worried unless you're mum went through menopause early, the whole age thing is a rough guidline i. e. for a woman who's expecting to hit menopause by 40, 35 would be stressful; but if the women in her family are fertile into their mid-late 50s it's not as big a deal.
You can alway get your fertility checked to see how long you have.
Gezz if you consider you are old at 29 then I am a great grand mother at my age and Im 44 and I dont have kids and I dont tend to have them anyway
Didn't you ask this same question 2 days ago?

Yees. Around 29 a woman's looks start going down. Many women will deny this but, in general it's true. The quality of men that would be willing to commit to you will also go down as your looks decline. So I'd say find a guy who likes, can see long term, and how you find somewhat attractive now.
Don't be picky and keep holding out for the 8/10+ guy who matches everything on your list, like a lot of women in their early 20's do. You'll just whined up getting pump/dump and then find yourself worse off in your late 30's, with even less decent suitors than you do now.
Also if by chance you ever showed little/no attraction to a guy in his early 20's that you know of. I would wager to stay away from pursuing a guy like this now. Most guys no how the game works, and will perceive you wanting to be with them now as you looking for a beta provider/ settling for him. Will use you for sex, and then discard you at this point.
In short find someone you don't know for a long time, that you fancy and realistically is someone you think is within your league. See if you like their personality, and look for positive long term traits rather than superficial ones. Hold onto him, and don't pressure him into marrying you.
Have I run out of time for love and babies? No. You just need to find a compatible guy at the same point in his life as you. Finding a compatible partner is challenging to everyone, but it can be done if your willing to put in the work.
Is a 29 year old woman considered old and past her prime? Most women hit their prime in their early twenties but can still remain very attractive for several decades after that. So while you may not be "in your prime" you are still very close to your prime.
I'm single too... And worried about my biological clock... Am I old? No you are not old, but like everyone else you aren't going to get any younger and have to decide what you are going to prioritize in life. Every single day you waste is a day you will never get back.
Am i too old to find someone? You aren't too old to find someone, but if you want to have children then you need to make that a priority, instead of just waiting for the right guy to fall into your life. There are guys that want to have kids that are around your age and want to start families. Guys that want to start their own family typically have a hard time finding women that want to have kids, as most women your age either don't want kids at all, or have already had all the kids she ever wanted and he will have to settle for raising another man's children.
Have my days of becoming a mother nearly reached an end? No, you just have set life goals and make the proper decisions to make that happen. You don't want to wait too long to have kids as that does increase the chance that your child will be born unhealthy, but you still have time.
While your eggs remain viable throughout your 40's. Modern medicine is making childbirth possible later and later in life. It is best if your FIRST child is before 40. Once you do that, a probability for healthy pregnancies and babies remains until menopause. If your first child is after 40, many doctors used to recommend an amniocentesis. Now a simple blood test will suffice to determine genetic abnormalities.

As for the "good guys" by recommendation is a solid, interdenominational church, the larger the better. If you are agnostic/atheist, then consider college classes, clubs and activities where you can meet people.
I'm twice your age and I don't feel old. The bottom line is that you have time---especially if you take care of yourself.
If you want to have kids then you have to make some decisions about your future. One option is to have a kid now, and then try to find the right man. The other options is to find a guy that is looking to start a family himself. A happy family life isn't just going to fall into your lap. You have to go out and make your dream become a reality.
What is holding you up right now? Are you too shy to date anyone? Are you too picky about what kind of guy you are willing to date? You need to figure out what is holding you back and address that issue.
Dont want to be rude but the great guys u were getting in your teens and twenties are less intrested in you as every year goes by especially if they want to start a family. If u want a marriage and kids after years of partying and being a carear woman u have got to start seriously looking for a guy. As the quality of guys interested in you as your age advances drops u will have to lower the bar for a potential mate or risk ending up alone with a dusty old uterus. Sorry but someone has to honest and blunt with u because now is the time and the clock is ticking down. Best of luck.

Firstly you are not old. Secondly it is not two late to conceive a child, it might be more difficult, but not impossible. I know this because several months ago a news anchor here in Australia had conceived and she is in her forties. And third, if you lived close by and I thought there might be chemistry, I would certainly ask you out :-)
My brother married a lady 4 years older than him and they first met when she was 28 while he was 24 at the University he was taking his CMA while she was finishing her final year for CA.
Anyways got married last year and expecting kids. Right now, she's 32 atm.
No, of course not! For kids it's probably too late when you approach 40. No problem at 29 :D
And you're also not at all to old to learn to know someone, that's something that happens at any age. Though I'm single too, and almost 40... I've tried but so far no seruous relationships though many girls liked me. But were not single :-(
No it hasn't. No you are not old. Are you days of a mother nearly reached an end? Haha, it's just starting and you have like 21 years left. You only probably been able to give birth since 14 which was 15 years ago and you are *still* not even halfway. The age when women have their first child is increasing and at 29, you are still young. Don't worry about it... Really, don't. Good luck.
Stop asking this, things haven't changed in the last 24 hours.

well you aren't ever too old to find love... but to have kids that aren't adopted and start a family of your own... yeah there is a clock.. but you haven't hit it yet. That doesn't start to hit you until your late 30's. But men tend to prefer starting families with younger women so yeah if starting a family is something you want, i'd hop to it.
You're not old, but you are irritating.

Im not trying to be mean but women's prime is considered like age 20 by most men. Im sure men still find you attractive though. You can settle down have kids, Im sure. If you want a family I think the best place to look for a partner is church honestly.
I feel the same way. But it's unreasonable really. Many people get married after 30. My parents met older than that
Couples are having children late in life. Just feel like you have to sit down to closest chair just because it's there
You're crazy!!! Lol don't worry about that stuff... I'm 28, i was in an 8 year relationship and we were engaged for a year. Then when We realized we weren't right for eachother we parted ways. All that to say that age never crossed our minds. So just enjoy life and dont Settle because thats the saddest thing you can ever do!
A friend of my mothers just had her first baby at 41. You have time and their pressure will only make it harder on you. Ignore them. You'll have your family soon enough
You already asked this and once again you are not too old... you are still pretty young but your biological clock is slowing down. My dad was single in his mid-late 30's and had no problem with the ladies.
Not by sensible people, no. In most cultures, she's still considered young, but in current Anglo American society, yes, people tend to dismiss women over about 28, because they won't let themselves be used by the wealthy men.
You are never too old to find someone. And you can easily get children until you are 40. And you don't need a partner nowadays to get children. There are a lot of mom's on their own.
