Pregnant after 35

35, intro, hello and update, plus boobs!

LOL. Hey sweet ladies. I have a 4 yr old girl and am newly pg with #2 (or #3!) due Aug 11. Due to previous losses (m/c and CP) I had u/s at 6 weeks which showed normal sac and heartbeat of fetus, and ANOTHER sac with yolk, fetal pole, smaller gestational sac but no heartbeat (yet). OB was unsure, so I go in for repeat u/s tomorrow which is 2 weeks after the first. Needless to say it's been a tough waiting game thus far. Anyway, I've had minimal fatigue, some nausea, but mainly huge inflated boobs and tenderness. Lately the tenderness has subsided and the past few days they are just slightly more full. I'm on progesterone supplements every night for low levels. I'm just writing to mainly intro and see how everyone else's symptoms have changed throughout early pg and any similar stories or thoughts. This waiting game is so treacherous and my wheels can't stop spinning.

  • Hiya -- I just intro'd here yesterday, I'm 36 and pregnant with #2... and I have a 9 month old at home. oy vey!

    I was on progesterone suppositories with #1 and they were gross but worked great and my little guy is happy and healthy!

    I'm just "barely pregnant," so I don't have any advice about symptoms,just wanted to say hi!

  • Congratulations!!!  Your symptoms sound normal and expected.  Best wishes for a healthy heartbeat or two!!!

  • Alright.... Follow up u/s done. I was surprised to find out there was not even a trace of baby B anymore, sotwins are officially out. However, in the brightest of sides, baby A is measuring true to gummy bear form at 2 cm and string hb of 176, so for now perfect. I think (know) the idea of twins petrified my hubby to the nearest asylum, wi me not that far behind, but I knew we wouldn't be given anything we couldn't handle. I hope that the next milestone goes swimmingly. Overall, good news for today I think?!
