The data comes from the Office for National Statistics, and while 2015 is the most recent year this data is available, there is a noticeable trend in the ages that UK women are having their first babies.
It keeps getting that bit later as time goes on.
In 2014, the average age a woman had her first baby was 28.5.
Alright, that's only a .1 difference but it's still a difference all the same.
As well as this, the average age of UK mums (not just first-time mums) was 30.3 in 2015, with the average age of dads (not just first-time dads) being 33.2.Explore more on these topics:
