Hello mommies!

Thought it was about time to stop lurking and post.

A little about me: I am 37 yrs old. LO will be born just a few weeks shy of my 38th birthday. I have 2 sons. They are not close in age and this LO will be about the same amount of time between. My oldest is 15 and in the autism specturm disorder. I was a single mom with him and luckily met a wonderful man who I dated for LONG time before marrying. 18 mths after we married we had my 2nd son who is now 7 but will be 8 when this LO is born. This will be my last. I am hoping for a girl but healthy is fine too! With my age I feel like this pregnancy has so many more concerns, etc. I am so happy to have these boards where there may be people in the same situation as me.

First appt is next Tuesday and I am so anxious for it.

Welcome and congrats! I think you will find a good sampling of women on here. We have low risk, no problems pregnancies,and higher risk ones for a VARIETY of reasons. So what ever comes up there always seems to be someone on here with a word of advice. It is very nice. Wishing you lots of luck and a H&H 9!

Our due dates are very close! I tend to lurk a lot, too..

My oldest will be 11 when #3 is born and I just turned 35. I was also a single mom for 7 years and married in 2007 to my soulmate. We are geeks in love, lol.

Welcome and congrats!
