OMG. Total shock. Just found out pregnant and I'm old and single!

[supersupersupershock]

Well title says it all really. I'm 42 and just found out totally unexpected.

I am single. Changed jobs two months ago to very high stress job that I am struggling with = no maternity pay... nor do I think I can stay doing it because of the stress

Holy moses! Have one child and have always, always wanted another but resigned to the fact that it would never happen.

Despite the shock and I am so utterly super excited I can't tell you :)

Well I have told DS and its all positive so far. Yes bit shocked at first, and kind of puzzled, he keeps talking about it and I have to remind that we need to remember its a long way off and not all pregnancies end up with a baby... sounds awful to say but gotta keep a reality.

Congratulations!!! What lovely news!!

Lovely

Congratulations! It's lovely to see your excitement. I don't think 42 is old. I'm 30, pregnant with number 5, and my oldest is 12. She is thrilled, as are the other children (who had ALL been begging for another sibling).

This is wonderful. I smiled through the last paragraph
Many congratulations x
