42, fabulous and pregnant!!!

[bubblesincambridge]

I'm 42 and found out last week that I'm pregnant! Does anyone have any tips considering my age? I don't feel particularly different from before. When does the morning sickness start?

Is it your first? (sorry, don't know you!) Congratulations! I think morning sickness starts in the first 6 weeks or so, if you're going to have it. Some lucky sods don't get it at all!

Congratulations - that's brilliant!

Congratulations! I'm having my first at 41. I have nothing to compare it to, but can only say it has been a breeze so far, no sickness, still exercising and at six months can run up all five flights to our flat.

Don't 'consider your age' - everyone else will be busy doing that for you

Congratulations!

You should come over to here: 40s forum.

We're all 40+ and are either preg or just delivered or, really, just can't be arsed to start a new thread! You'd be more than welcome!

Cool! Yes its my first. I thought all my eggs were knackered! Just joined the site this morning! No one else knows (apart from the dad that is!) yet.

Aaw that's brilliant, so pleased for you! Hope it all goes smoothly and you enjoy mumsnet.
