Ask me anything.

It may help me process it.

I assumed by the header that you had no children at all, and this was your last chance to have 1- like me. I'm sorry you are going through this. If you are finding it overwhelming, reach out and speak to someone professional OP- for example ARC or any of the counselling services the EPU/GP give you details of.

Try to focus on the good things in your life- you children, partner etc. best of luck x

@GeriatricMumma if you're closer to 6 weeks it might not be that accurate, especially if your HCG levels are high.

I had an internal scan, then verified by a doctor. Going by the size of the sac they are very sure x

I agree.

I never say this, but - do you think you might get MNHQ to change your thread title? What you are going through is so upsetting, and so deserving of support. I clicked on the thread expecting it to be about someone having a last chance baby at 42, and I think lots of people will do that. We won't be in the right place to give you that support, and we won't have the knowledge you need.

Completely agree. I always thought the AMA section was for a completely different reason to the one you have posted OP. I'd too would ask MNHQ to move it to a pregnancy or loss related section instead. x

So sorry OP. Heartbreaking. Give yourself time to process it then revisit how you feel?

Is 38 too old to have first child.
