Intro .....FTM at 38!

in Pregnant after 35
Hi there!

Just wanted to formally introduce myself my name is Christine, I'm 38 and close to 8 weeks along- my fiancé and I have known each other since HS but only got together few years back- he is 39 and this too is his first child so we are both very excited! I've been lurking on other boards and they seem a bit too abrasive for me but found this one and it feels like a much better fit : )

Excited to meet you all and lend my support when I can and also get insight from those moms here going for another round : )

Best
Christine

    Thanks guys for the warm welcome! I'm still getting used to the idea of being a mom in 8 months so I'm glad I have some women to relate to along the journey!

    Welcome and congrats!  I am 41 with #1 on the way- P.S. I am glad I am not the only one who found other forums abrasive!  :) hope things are going well with your pregnancy- I know I am still in Awe at 32 weeks- being an older mom and thinking it would never happen- and here I am watching (and feeling) the joys of kicks and movement!  Yayyy for us!  lol

    I will also be a FTM, and I am 38. 

    ( I did have a loss last year, so it's not my first pregnancy, but I have decided to own the "first-time-mom" title anyway. :) )
