  • Wow! Congrats and good luck on this exciting new step in your life! It'll be a big change, but you're also lucky to have a daughter who will hopefully be excited to be a big help and sister to the new little ones. H&H for the rest of your pregnancy and preparations!

  • Congratulations!!  Twins... a double blessing! :)  

    I'm 45 and pregnant w/my 3rd.  My  husband and I have a 3 1/2 year old son and I have an 18 year old daughter!  I'm a bit nervous because of my age; but my family is super supportive and so far everything seems great.  We had a miscarriage last year. 

    Would love to keep in touch w/others here too!  

    :)

  • Hello lexy067,

    I will be 43 tomorrow and just got my bfp today. I just had a chemical the end of sept beg of oct and find myself pregnant. I am hoping this one sticks. My husband and i have been trying for almost 3 years now. we have a 2 almost 3 year old. I had a chemical and then got pregnant with her right after, im hoping this is the same.

     You are having twins?! OMG! that is so exciting. I am glad to hear all is going well. I have decided to only tell the hubby as we dont want to say anything til we know it is safe.

     my last bfp i was soo excited and the na week later my tests started to get lighter and lighter. I was devestated. This time i feel nervous. happy but still nervous. I feel like af is about to arrive, but then again I have felt like that during my previous pregnancy.

     I am excited for you! I have always wanted twins. How far along are you? How do you feel about having twins? Congrats and happy and healthy pregnancy! :)

  • Hello Purple tree,

     I will be 43 soon and just got a bfp on an hpt today. We currently have a 2,5,and 21 year old. We have been trying for one more for over two years now. Hubby is always busy and super tired all the time so it has made it hard and frustrating. We had a chemical the beg of oct and now a bfp today. Hoping this sticks as this is the same thing that happened when we fell pregnant with our two year old.

    My aunt was 42 and 44 when she became pregnant with her two girls and all was good. How is your pregnancy coming along. We have decided not to say anything and waiting until things are well along. I am so scared to get too excited at this point.

    I have slight pains , but cant say pains just a poking around my tummy and twitches every now and then and feel wet and keep running to the bathroom like af has arrived. Do you find anything different this time around?

    good luck to you!

  • Hi !!You all are so wonderful .I just checked back to see if anyone write i am thrilled to see responses !!Thank you !!

     

    I am 14 weeks tomorrow !I have my appointment for my sonogram on Friday afternoon .I had a sonogram at 12 weeks 2 days and it showed TWO beautiful sacs and two beautiful babies .One did look slightly smaller than the other .But the doctor said both heartbeats were terrific ..so back i go on Friday . If it  all goes well --we are planning to tell my 6 year old this coming week ..then the rest of family .No no-one knows because i was so afraid so far ..due to past miscarriages .But by 15 weeks if this sonogram is great i think i might BURST if i dont tell my daughter and family !!

     I am praying it goes well ..i bought a sono b monitor and i do believe i have found BOTH heartbeats ..certainly one ..so that does help my sanity until Friday !!

     Again thanks so much for writing --please contnue and so will i .

     Sandy
