Pregnant after 35

Introducing myself: pregnant with #3 at age 40!

Hi everyone!  My name is Jessica and I am prego with my third child.....just turned 40 at the end of February.  This pregnancy was a bit of a surprise....we have two daughters- one is 5 and the other is almost 4.  This pregnancy has been a little harder since I am older and have my two little ones!  Just looking to chat with others who are pregnant at this age and appreciate any advice anyone has!  I look forward to speaking to all of you :)

    Congratulations! I have a girl and boy. But like the other two, we won't find out until the birth.
  • Congrats!   I am 42 and preg with #6.  I'm thrilled but tired lol.
  • Congrats and welcome!  I am turning 40 in September and am pregnant with #3.  My other two kids are 9 and 12, so to say I'm a little scared would be an understatement.  It all seems surreal to me!  Welcome! This is a great board!

  • Congrats! I'm due shortly after you with number #4.
     

  • I'm 40 and this is my 4th child. I'm excited!

  • Congratulations and best wishes for the rest of this pregnancy being happy and healthy (even if tiring!)!  I'm 39 and hopefully only a week or 2 (or 3 at the most) away from having our first baby.  

    I felt like I got the pregnancy thing down pretty well after a while (though really, that's easy since your body just does it and you're along for the ride and have to go with the flow for the most part - choosing and negotiating with medical professionals is about all you really have to figure out it seemed) but am now feeling very very FTM-clueless about all the newborn baby stuff that's approaching so wisdom from you 3rd, 2nd, 5th, 6th timers is all very welcome!
