I am 44 and six weeks preg. I had uterine ablazion five years ago..told that getting preg at my age after ablaztion was like winning lottery. Scared of not having healthy baby..already had two ultrasounds. Next one in a week..hoping for the best

45 and 24 wks pregnant naturally after ttc.  Everything is looking good so far.  Also had the MaterniT21 test and came back w/ good results.  20 wk ultrasound looked great also.  Only issue could be low lying placenta which could block a vbac (placenta previa).  Good chance it could move up as pregnancy progresses.  Crossing my fingers!  Good luck everyone and congrats!

I am 45 and 6 1/2 wks pregnant. I had my first child at 39 with no issues. Hoping for a healthy, normal pregnancy.

Congrats!  I am 42 and got pregnant naturally (but I was trying).  I am now 20 weeks and things are going great.  I had some genetic testing (MaterniT21) at 11 weeks and just had my anatomy ultrasound and so far, the baby looks very healthy.  I have had no complications and so far things are very similar to my previous pregnancy at 39 (except more morning sickness).  Here's to a happy and healthy 9 months!
