Hello Everyone

I just wanted to say hello.  My name is Kelly and I live in Lafayette, Louisiana.   I am 37 years old and just found out I am pregnant.  I don't have an official due date yet, my first OB appointment is March 24th.  I am thinking sometime in November.  I am glad to see so many mommies to be over 35 out there!   I am scared because of my age, but it's in God's hands and i pray for a healthy pregnancy and baby!   Oh, and I have one little girl who just turned 3 last month!

Hi there!!  Welcome and a big congratulations to you!!!  There are so many of us in late 30's right up to mid 40's either trying to conceive, or having (or have had) healthy pregnancies and babies!!  I am 40 and trying right now myself.  Best of luck to you, and I wish you a healthy and uneventful pregnancy!!

Congradulation, and best wishes to you!  I am 37, and pregnant as well, and I am as happy as I can be.  I am just praying to God that this pregn will be fine. I have had three m/c, but for some reason I feel this time around will be different.  You will be just fine, my sister at 39 just had a healthy baby boy.  You are in my prayers and thoughts.  Have a happy 9 months...
