I know it doesn't sound possible but I'm being sick, can't stand the smell of my husband, have terrible headaches and am craving rice. I never eat rice! Also I can't bear tea and I normally drink gallons of it!
It must be a virus, right? No-one my age could possibly be preggers?

What record? It not that unusual and the oldest mother was 21 year older than OP.

World record was hyperbole but not a massive exaggeration. A successful natural conception at 53 is definitely 'that unusual.'

I hope you’re ok, love, I know you said you’d be delighted if it was positive. Just to say - totally support your frank share, and I hope you felt overall supported by the group. (Hard to know in these forums!) I love people who are brave and share.

Its such a journey tricky pregnancies (mine came at 25 and 22 weeks so I have a real block on certain topics) and peoples opinions ….. well done with the hot younger husband and sounds it a very happy family. Minus the hot flashes I might be the only person I know rooting for menopause :) x

i hope you are feeling ok OP, look after yourself, you are probably a bit fragile from the emotional up and down! I think your feelings and reactions were very natural and many would have felt the same.
