| Congrats! Don't worry, I heard Halle Berry in a recent interview say for both of her pregnancies she had "geriatric pregnancy" written on her chart.

      Location: Okemah,OK | We're in the same boat. Been married 17 years in December and expecting a daughter in February. No other kids and really never planned for any. Decided to give it a few months try just to say we did and BAM, she showed up lol. I'll be 41 in 2 weeks. I hear the words "advanced maternal age" at almost every doc visit. But she's passed all the genetic and neural tube tests so far. Now it's just a matter of my body keeping up with her. But so far so good. We've got another ultrasound Friday and I'm looking forward to her looking more and more like the little baby we will be having soon! Congrats to you and feel free to message me if you need anything from a fellow advanced mom lol. |

    Location: Southeast Louisiana | Awesome news!! Congratulations!!
I'm 43 with a three month old (my first). The phrase I kept hearing was "Advanced Maternal Age" lol. They worried the heck outta me with that stuff, but everything turned out just fine. We also had the genetic blood test rather than the ambniosynthesis (?sp). I liked that they kept a close eye on everything. I got to go to an ultrasound every month and peek at the little guy moving his little hands and yawning, etc. He has changed my life in ways I never did imagine. I just want to spend every waking moment staring at him. He is such a blessing and I know it was meant to be.
Plus, when I start riding again, I know he will need a new LQ trailer and a pony! I can hardly wait! |
