in Pregnant after 35
Hi, I'm new to this forum but look forward to actually getting advice and knowledge from people my age....other apps with all ages I don't find as helpful b/c I am skipping all the drama posts!! I am 38 and on my 3rd pregnancy no babies yet....who else is having trouble really enjoying their pregnancy? I hear the words "high risk" all the time and it freaks me out. Anyone else?

    Hi there

    We just found out so I think I'm still in shock. I don't think it will seem real until I actually have my first appt which isn't until the second wk in Apr. When I made my appt, the first thing they told me was that due to my age (40) my

    I think Iam considered high risk due to the loss and age combined! I think after I have the Materna21 and get what I hope to be good results I will be better and even better after the 20 week mark which is when I lost my first! This is why I love this f

    Obviously, I am a bit nervous too. I am sure I will enjoy it more when I am further along, but I feel like it has been a rough road so far. Plus, now that I am showing, it seems like everyone tells me "enjoy it." and I'm tired of hearing this advice from
