Pregnant after 35

Newbie!! and Scared as heck!

Hi everyone! I'm 36 and just got my bfp Sunday!! I did three tests at home, then went to the neighbourhood medi clinic/minor emergency and they just gave me another urine test and they were all positive!  I have to wait until Wed. to see my own Dr. Sooo excited.. and shocked!!!

 We've only been trying for 4 months. My mom and sister both had trouble conceiving, and I'm older, i'm a bit overweight and a total stress-ball most of the time, so this is a complete shocker! I look forward to all of your stories, comments and posts!  Smile
