Any older expectant mum's out there?

[45andfine]

I'm 45 and rather unexpectedly having a 5th child. It all seems more scary this time around, familiar, but with other worries.

@45andfine how are things going any sign of baby yet ? X

Update from me:
Baby Theodore (Ted) was born 5/2/20. He's perfect in every way and cute as a button 🥰 3months and one week old now and starting to interact a lot. Really glad the first 3 months are over! It was hard work and so little sleep. Struggling a bit with the whole lockdown thing as I was just getting ready to leave the house and see people, go to baby groups etc when the opposite happened. Looking forward to things easing a little so we can get out of the house.

Anyway, I hope you're all doing well and keeping busy with your little ones. Just thought it would be nice to know what happened to you all if you get chance to update the group xx

Aw such a cutie Ruby is 7 months now and an absolute star although still waking in the night!
I miscarried in February which was very stressful so just taking each day as it comes and ruby is filling all my days I don't get a minute which is good

Well hi guys. I hope are all good.
Well Isobel was 7 months yesterday and we got this yesterday too. So before I turn 42 I will have 2 hopefully fingers crossed.

@Em39ma congrats fingers crossed for you 2 under 2 that's what I'm trying for Ruby is 7 months and we are currently TTC I'm hoping for another before I'm 44 in March x

Congratulations @Em39ma best of luck and everything crossed for you xx
@Dipsy77 sorry to hear of your loss. You're daughter is a real cutie and must be a comfort.

I'm 42 now and going to try one last time around Christmas time (a bit early, 10 months after DS) because I figure I'll should be more fertile and don't have the time to spare so wish me luck. Although only just healed from forceps and episiotomy so the thought of sex 😱 it might have to be an immaculate conception! 🤣

Hi. I'm 43 and have a surprise baby coming around Christmas. Bolt out of the blue after bowel surgery last year and concerns for the dreaded C. But I'm fit and well and maybe see this as a gift. My daughter is 14.
Here goes for a new adventure x
