Thank you for your thought, I am 47 and want to get prgenant, as my husband has no children of his own and I would love to give him a child,so thank you for not making me feel like it is wrong to want a child at 47
Hi Sarah,
I am 48 also and pregnant! At first I was seriously freaked out. I never thought it could happen to us- AGAIN! (I was pregnant last September and miscarried.) I thought THAT was just a crazy accident, but here I am again. After the initial shock, I decided that if all my testing goes well, and I am able to carry her to term, I will keep my baby. My man was freaked out too, but now he has come around. He is scared but excited, like me.
Make sure YOU are healthy and safe first, and whatever YOU decide, it will be fine.
Good luck!
I am 48 years old and have been on the pill for 22 years...I skipped 2 weeks without taking the pill waiting for my Dr. appt. Now I am 2weeks late..Is their any chance I could be pregnant...I's afraid to go take a pregnancy test in case it is postive.
Amen, Lisa! I, too, am 48 and have never been successful at becoming pregnant - even after two rounds of IUIs. After the 2nd month of doing that and it not "taking," I decided it just wasn't mean to be. Children are miracles from God and I knew if HE wanted me to have children, HE would be the one to give them to me. I'm thankful sometimes that I don't have any because my husband and I are divorced, and things would have been much more complicated with a child. BUT I'm in a relationship of almost a year with an amazing man now who, incidentally, was not able to have children either. He and his ex-wife adopted two infants who are now grown. I think it would be so cool to have a baby with him since neither of us has been able to; this would indeed be a blessing! We aren't trying to get pregnant, of course, but if it happened, even at this late stage in our lives, I think we'd both be shocked and happy at the same time.
I think its really great a new beginning something so very special. embrace your pregnancy
Take care of you !!!!!!
