Congrats and def stay positive. Im 43 and now 19 weeks pregnant with my first!! I worried non stop for the first 12 weeks and analysed every twinge as i was also aware of the higher risk. Have u had an early scan as they say once you have seen the heartbeat your miscarriage risk goes down significantly.  I bought a fetal doppler which picks up heartbeat from around 12 weeks which gave me lots of reassurance that bubs was ok.

If it has to be it will be. I had 3 miscarriages between the age of 23 and 25. So you can never tell.
