TTC after 35
TTC at 38 with baby #2!
I am 38 and hubby and I want another baby. We have a healthy happy 2 1/2 year old boy! I have the go ahead from my OBGYN but I am so scared of the baby being downs or worse. Are there any other 38+ trying for a baby?

Actually, I am not. There are so many tests out there you can find out a lot of information in the early stage. I guess I will take it one day at a time, you only can worry so much in life. Best of luck to you.
On the 2 ww now for this month!!!
Like, JChow said, there are quite a few test out there to help, either before with a saliva test/blood test to see if, either one of you are carriers or when you get pregnant to check at an early stage. But, I can understand not wanting to make that decision, once you are prego.....so, talk to your doctor about your options and creating a good plan, so that you are not facing that type of situation. I am assuming that you are TTC naturally?
Best of luck.
