I'm 38 and have a just over one year old. It is hard, and I'll tell you also that I have two teenage sons, and it's much harder now than it was when I was still young. You just plow through and try and enjoy the ride, keeping in mind that they're only little for such a short time. I've had to stop myself from wishing away our baby's infancy for my own selfish needs, and for the most part I've succeeded, but you're right. It is hard being a new parent when you're older.
