Hi ladies,

I've just read a really lovely and supportive thread for September due dates for those who are 40+ and it has inspired me to start another thread! I did start a thread the other day but it was a bit non descript so hoping this gets a bit more traction.

I'm 41 and currently 4+6, this will be DC3 if all goes well. I've had 3 previous losses and despite saying to DH I'd try not to think about it too much I can feel it taking over most of my head space. We've just booked a private scan when I'll be 8 weeks... it'll be a slow moving 3 weeks I'm sure!

Anyway if anyone is due around a similar time and 40 something feel free to join me for the journey!

Hey :) I'll be 40 when I would give birth.
I think I'm around 5 weeks although could have a day or few behind. Clearblue is saying 2-3 .
I spontaneously conceived during am ivf cycle so it's hard to pinpoint exact timing of egg release.

Hi @VioIetMoon congratulations! Wow, conceiving during an ivf cycle must have been a big shock?! A nice surprise though :)
I'm 5 weeks today, definitely getting a bit of evening fatigue atm!

Hi I’m 43 and 3+4 so super early. It’s a surprise as my cycles are all over the place and thought I was starting the menopause 🤦‍♀️

Hello! I’m 41 and expecting baby number 5 at the end of May/start of June, by which time I’ll be 42.

Hello I’ve just turned 43 and got my BFP this morning. Currently 4w4d! This will be DC2 for me but DC1 for my partner. He is 8 years younger than me and honestly thought it wouldn’t happen for us as had early MC in June. Excited but apprehensive at the same time.
