too old ?

[sharon1976]

Hi I'm 38 and expecting my 2nd child,I'm worried I'm a bit old any one else feel like this x

You aren't alone in your feelings.  I'm 41 and am due in 35 days with a little girl who will be my 4th child.  I certainly don't remember pregnancy being so taxing on my body but then again my last pregnancy was 17 yrs ago and I had my other 3 children by the age of 25, but I have built in babysitters ;) This too shall pass and in the meantime I'm just along for this crazy ride that has such a beautiful blessing waiting for us at the end!

Nikki148, I agree with you whole heartedly. I'm 38 and #4 and they keep trying to slap high risk in my face.  I'm like if you don't hush. If I wasn't equipped to handle this God wouldn't have done it. TRUST GOD and enjoy your pregnancy!

I'm 36 and I thought I was too old too especially since I have an 11 year old.  It was rough the first trimester but the more I shared my concerns with other women the more I realized I wasn't alone.   A lot of women are waiting nowadays.  I'm excited and working on the nursery. Can't wait to welcome my baby girl in September :-)

I'm 39.  #3 On the way.  I will be 40 two months after baby comes. Listen to your doctor. You will be fine.

I'm 38 and I have an 18 year old. You are not too old. My pregnancy was also unplanned, and me and the dad split up. So I just say take it as a blessing. Try to remain healthy and focus on all the positive things motherhood will bring you. I'm looking forward to holding my little prince for the first time.

I'm 37 due May 29th and have a 19 year old son. You are never too old! If you are fine with getting pregnant, than who cares what other people thing. Congrads!

I'm 41 and this is my 4th! U R not too old!!!! Our bodies are made for this. Age is just a number if ur body can't handle a baby it will let u know. There r ppl n here who r 47+ n given birth to heathy babies. Don't let a number discourage u n make u feel dw enjoy the life growing inside u!!! Doc will say u high risk but it's n gods hands eat healthy take ur vitamins n start the count dwn til ur bundle arrives lol!!! Good luck!

I'm 35 and it's my first. I worry constantly about how old he will be when I am in my 50s or 60s. My pregnancy was not planned so I'm just trying to accept it is what it is.
