Intro: 35 and pregnant with first

I am 35 and pregnant with our first. We call this our miracle child. We went through 6 years of fertility treatment only to have our last IVF with donor cycle fail last June. I stopped all treatment and was making plans for graduate school when I discovered I wasn't suffering from kidney failure but was pregnant! We are at 20 weeks and found out today at our Level 2 u/s that the baby is healthy and a girl. Today was the first day where I felt as though it was okay to just enjoy being pregnant and not worrying about everything that could go wrong with the pregnancy. I of course will still worry, but I am hoping this board will help me take in the good moments of this pregnancy as well.

    That's awesome to hear!  20 weeks?!  You're half way there already.  How wonderful to know that you're pregnant without using a donor! 

    And I was 35 when I had my first as well.

    Congrads on your miracle child.  I think you'll find this board very helpful, especially for worry support (I tend to worry about everything even when things look positive).  Wishing you a healthy and happy 9 months.
