Hello! I have been lurking for a few weeks and just had the confidence to say hello today. I am 45, DH is 33. We have a beautiful daughter together, Emilia Theresa 2yrs and 9 mo old. We are almost 12 weeks pregnant with our second. Ultrasound at 11 wks 4 days looks good. HB is 163. First tri screening and 1st OB appt set for 09/07. Holding my breath : ) I also have two boys from a previous marriage (20yrs old and 16 yrs old). Looks like I may be the oldest one here lol. Hopefully will be here for the long haul.
Re: Intro (another AMA)
Welcome and congratulations! I have also been lurking for a while, afraid I might jinx the pregnancy if I piped up too soon. I'm only at 9 weeks but had a good dating u/s Friday, so it felt like it was time. I hope your screening shows you have a healthy little bean. (Also, Emilia is a beautiful name!)
Over-40 parents...what we lack in vigor, we make up for with cunning.
So nice to know I am not alone ; ) Thank you all for the warm welcome and congrats to you too. It's nice to have people to share the journey. Wishing you all a happy and healthy 9 mo.
I love your daughter's name, it's very sweet. Welcome to the group.
Danuli8 & tcfreedom......Emilia was my grandmothers name. They used to call her Millie : ) We haven't called our daughter that yet, usually it is Em or Emmie or Melia.
