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.

He's lovely. SmileFlowers

I had ds when I was 39 and dh was 41. My mum described dh as "like a dog with a thousand tails" Grin I'm sure that's what your dh is like Grin

Try to hold on to the little moments Smile - as the wee old lady who congratulated me when I want out with ds when he was only a few weeks old, "They're small for such a short time" It's a truism but one we only fully recognise with hindsight, even when we are told Confused
