Hi,
I'm in a panic. I am 45 (46 in two weeks) have 3 kids 9,12,15 from previous marriage and two step kids 12,15 with new partner (they dont live with us). I feel so stupid that I can barely type this. I am pregnant unexpectedly, I thought I was menopausal, we've been having protected sex for three years but lately been less careful because I honestly thought I was too old! I have done two tests both positive, no symptoms apart from missed period and now I am having mini nervous breakdown. I had a miscarriage in between ds and dd years ago and I know all the risks are ridiculously high. I dont want an abortion, partner says he is happy and is supportive and says he will stay at home to look after it if it goes ahead. I am financially stable but work a lot for myself and whsilt I have flexibility I am a CEO in a charity. I found out yesterday, have read all the awful stats and want go ahead with this but I feel sick to my stomach with the shock! I know about all the tests and will have them all, I read that there is a such a thing as false positives then convinced myself that maybe I have kidney cancer or something as that is a higher chance than falling pregnant at 46 naturally......I then stayed awake all night crying.
Rambling sorry. I love my family and my partner dearly, I guess I am here for any support, words of advice or caution, anyone think this could be a false positive or am I kidding myself? I know miscarriage chances are very high and I am only 6 weeks......help please x
