Is there a pregnant over 40 thread? - Page 17

I'm still here. Baby is developing fine and I'm feeling pretty good. Have to find time this week or early next for the Gestational Diabetes test. My work schedule is pretty impacted, so it will probably need to be early Monday, and leave dd with dh for a few hours (Monday's my day off, and I keep dd out of daycare on that day).

Clara still wants to be picked up and snuggled--at 4 and 40+ pounds--which is definitely getting more difficult! I can do short distances, but otherwise she's on her own. It's a funny transition for her--on the one hand, she's really excited about having a baby sister; on the other, she sometimes tells me that she wants to be a baby again....

Welcome!

Checking in -- my pregnancy is going well - and it's speeding by. I'm about 31 weeks.
Last week my eldest son left for the Army. I"ve been missing him terribly and crying a little bit every day since I learned of his decision, mostly at bedtime when I'm tired.

I feel large and awkward but am blessed to be not suffering any truly unbearable side effects.

Getting a little nervous about labor...........

We just got our BFP this morning and are so excited. This will be our 7th child and I will be 40 this year. Our kiddos are super excited and are already counting down :

Our oldest joined the Navy last year and is so dissappointed that he will not be here.

I am 46 and just found out I am pregnant. I will be 47 in April. This will be number 9. Tentatively excited.

I'm 42 and expecting my second in late August. Big surprise! :

Hi again
I'm still here too, almost 30 weeks and can't complain, although I just failed my glucose challenge and now have to do the 2 hour GTT next week.

Just bought a load of baby clothes on ebay, all I need really for $35, and a carseat 1/2 price from Target so I am good to go.

My baby (boy) is doing all the right things, is head down and I am i think on track for my usual 37 week delivery.

Pleased to see there are so many of us "oldies" still around (and congrats on the scan results, VM)
