Just thought I'd better start a new thread for those of you who would like to see updates before the old one is totally full.

All still good here! I've been a bit low on iron but the tablets REALLY don't agree with me. So I've started just taking one in the morning with orange juice, and having a spoonful of Floridix in the afternoon and making an effort to eat spinach and red meat.
I've been feeling baby OMG moving around a lot more now he's getting bigger and stronger, which is lovely although slightly alarming at times!

We've probably got a maximum of 7 weeks to go now as I understand the drs are not keen for older mums to go much over 39 weeks. Eeeek.
Will keep you all posted.

Another one delurking to say your little baby boy is absolutely adorable😍
Huge congratulations and a big well done to you💐

lifewithelenakatrina · 27/07/2022 21:52

I have just spent an age catching up with your whole pregnancy saga how exciting to arrive right at the point you’re about to give birth.

I also didn’t think I could get pregnant due to medical conditions and had been told I’d probably need help. 3 months after my 40th I fell pregnant… by accident. She was early but is fine now 20 months old and ….. at 42 I’m now 6 weeks from having an elective c section for my second 😳

Us 40 year olds shouldn’t always be written off eh! 🤭

so thrilled for you and your husband and it’s made my day finding these threads. 💕

hoping all is well for you in hospital and I’ll be following keenly for further updates on you and baby OMG
