40 and pregnant with number 3 - nervous!

[Pattymc1]

Hi i was hoping to find some other older mums to chat to about this pregnancy. I am only 4 weeks pregnant and although planned, it was a decision made on holiday 2 and half weeks ago! I have always wanted 3 kids, dh wanted to stop after 2 and so we did. Now he has come round to the idea and so we thought we would give it a go....! Just told him and he is in shock and to be honest I am very nervous. I hope there are some others out there to reassure me and offer some advice xxx

Ah how lovely, I have been looking into one but cheapest I found was £100. I've got one booked for Monday week but feel v inpatient!

Hi I saw a heartbeat I'm sorry I thought i had already already replied last week. Nearly 7 weeks now and feeling sick and tired and hungry and bloated so all good! How is everyone else getting on? I had huge emotional downs at the weekend I remember feeling low during first trimester for my other 2. Don't remember being this hungry though!

Hi glad your feeling well. I'm 8 weeks and booked a reassurance scan for tomorrow, cld not take the stress of not knowing if everything is ok. I also feeling very bloated, esp in the evening. Don't think the constipation is helping (and I don't remember that either!!) I've resorted to prunes and sultana bran to see if helps! Apart from that I'm feeling good, quite tired in evenings, so plenty of early nights and waking early with horrible taste and very thirsty. Don't remember that either! Very excited and nervous about tomorrow. Yikes....
