Who's pregnant and over 35?

[Jackie0313]

Just curious if anyone here is actually pregnant?  I am 41, had 2 mc's, and a little over 5 weeks pregnant the natural way.  I just don't know what to expect at my age and it appears that most everyone here is trying to get pregnant.  
I am scared about another mc and genetic issues.
The only other community I found is filled with 20 something's that really aren't in the same boat, but quite nice.

I am 7 weeks pregnant.  I am 35 in two weeks and having been trying for 5 years to get pregnant, found out I had a large 10cm ovarian cyst, had it drained (shouldnt have been drained because its not gone away and is now solid) and I also had dye put through my tubes, I got pregnant a month after surgery, which I found out a couple of days just before I was due to have a second surgery to remove the cyst competely, the surgery had to be cancelled.
After 5 years of trying I got pregnant with a cyst when it was the only month I didnt want to!  I have now been advised surgery will be in week 16 of my pregnancy.  Good luck with your pregnancy. x

Hi there,

I'm 40, 24 weeks along, due May 8. No trouble conceiving (thank goodness), no miscarriages (thank goodness), and amnio shows no chromosonal issues (thank goodness).  I feel very lucky. So far, so good!

Congrats on your pregnancy!

Well, I was supposed to still be pregnant right now, but my baby boy decided to join us a month early!  He was due February 9th but is now already eight days old.  Before this, I had an ectopic pregnancy in 2009 that was so emotionally traumatic for me I worried I would not want to try to get pregnant again.  But after a few months I was ready...
