@TheHappyPikachu (And @Zareh since his universe)


I just wanted to point out that, were we truly going medieval times, then 17 is a perfectly acceptable age to be have a child. In fact, I think it was expected to be settled down with at least one child by then. However, most fantasy universes (mine included) usually take a more modern approach to ages, even though medieval health-care doesn't really allow for that.


Just some food for thought.

I found an article: ( xD so... yeah.)


"Medieval Marriage & Childbirth


From a specifically female point of view, marriage and childbirth were an important aspect in the life of a medieval girl or woman. The risks associated with childbirth, however, were quite high at the time due to a number of factors: age; health and illness; birthing complications; and death.


For many noble-born or royal women, marriage could and often did take place at a young age. There are many instances or very young girls being betrothed and married under the age of 10 years old. This did not necessarily mean that the marriage was consummated. However, there was a perception that once a girl began her period that she was considered to be of marriageable age. And so the male could begin his almighty pursuit for an heir.


So, typically, when did a young medieval girl embark on the road to “womanhood”:

• Puberty is the process of change that takes place as you grow up and become physically mature and capable of having children.
  
• Puberty (and thus menstruation / periods) usually takes place between the ages of 10yo and 16yo.
  
• "Most girls start their first periods at about 12 or 13; however some girls may have periods by the age of 8 and still others may not have a period until they are 14 or 15."(Source: About Women's Health).
  
• At the time when we have our first period or "menarche", we are crossing the line from girlhood to womanhood.
  

Now, marriages of noble and royal women were usually for political and dynastic consideration. So, at what age did a young noblewoman enter into marriage.


It is more common for a young woman to have been married early, though not to have had her first child until she was much older. It is agreed that the most common age for a young woman to have given birth to her first child is from 16yo.

• In Italy the average age for marriage was 17; in France it is 16yo; and in England and Germany 18yo was the average age - all for first marriages. (Source: “Medieval Households” by David Herlihy, Harvard University Press, 1985).
  

However, the following examples are exceptions:

• Bianca of Savoy, Duchess of Milan was married aged 13yo (1350), and aged 14yo when she gave birth to her eldest son, Giangaleazzo (1351).
  
• Theodora Comnena was aged 13yo when she was married King Baldwin III of Jerusalem (1158).
  
• Agnes of France was 12yo when, widowed, she was married to Andronicus Comnenus, Byzantine Emperor (1182).
  
• St Elizabeth of Portugal was aged 12yo when she was married to King Denis of Portugal and gave birth to three children shortly thereafter.
  
• Caterina Sforza was betrothed aged 9yo, married aged 14yo, and gave birth aged 15yo.
  
• Lucrezia Borgia was married to her first husband aged 13yo and bore a son within a few years.
  
• Beatrice d'Este was betrothed aged 5yo and married aged 15yo.
  

But what of young women who were not noble or royal - at what age did they marry and have children.


The consensus is that young women of middle or low status married and gave birth at a much later age for a number of reasons:

• They did not need to marry for dynastic reasons.
  
• They tended to contribute to the family income whilst they remained unmarried and still living within the family unit.
  
• Girls were often employed in service for a “fixed” term before being paid out and released from service.
  
• And in some cases, a “fee” was required to be paid upon the marriage.
  
• “Church law forbade child marriage and allowed young brides and grooms to repudiate the marriage once they reached the age of puberty, which was officially set at 12 for girls and 14 for boys”
  

So, the most common age for a young woman of middle or low status to marry was from the age of 22 years old. Thus we can conclude that this young woman would have given birth to her first child before she was 25 years old."

Yeah... ok. I found this fact:

An average peasant women married at the age of 14 and gave birth to the first child at the age of 15.
