Any 47 year olds prgnant out there?

It's September 2016, im 47 years old and i found out a week ago that i was pregnant (6 weeks). This was not planned..no bells, whistles or ticks, it happen naturally. I'm in great health physically and don't have any existing or past medical issues. I full of mixed emotions and lots of concerns :( Anyone else out in the same boat?

I'm 47 but mine is an IVF pregnancy. I'm in general good health too. I do get anxious bc i had 3 natural conceptions which ended in miscarriages. I wish you a great journey! Enjoy it.

Hi, Im about the same age as you, though a bit older and having an IVF conceived baby. My advice is that you contact your IVF clinic. Im on diff meds to you, but my clinic is always helpful.

I'm 46 and 7 weeks today.  Not planned and I am not in the best health, unfortunately.  I have a 23 and a 19 year old. I have told no one except my husband, he is 51.

I'm 44 and due about the same time I'll turn 45.  I also got pregnant naturally. I'm 29 weeks.   Can't wait to meet my little one.

I'm 44 and almost 7 weeks along, and excited.  My other children are ages 25 and 20, they are excited too.  I will admit I'm nervous about this pregnancy because of my age, but trying to have a positive attitude.

43 and naturally (surprisingly) pregnant! Emotions ALL over the place. 8 weeks 4 days, and I can't seem to get my head around any of it. My partner - 56! - and I have no children. We always thought we would have kids, but it never worked out. Until now! I still am in shock. Two months later, how are things for you? Hope all is well.
