Over 35

How many of us here are 35 or over? How are you feeling? If this isnt your first pregnancy How does it compare to the previous time(s)? 

Re: Over 35

  • I am 39 turning 40 in December. This is my 4th pregnancy and feels completely different than my three others, not sure if its due to my age or if I just forgot how the first trimester is while pregnant. Currently I feel tired, been having some nausea but thankfully no vomiting. My boobs are so sore its ridiculous. Thankfully though the cramping i was feeling earlier in the week seems to have subsided which makes me feel less anxious.

    I'm almost 39 and this is my second pregnancy. I was 36 with my first. It's still relatively early, but I'm oddly feeling better this time around - but I think it's only because I don't have the luxury to think of myself much. I teach jr high (middle school) and have an almost 3 year old, so my days are absolutely nuts from start to finish. Life was a lot different the last time around... Save me hahah. 
  • Not over 35, but I’ll be 32 in a few weeks and this is my 4th pregnancy
  • Im 42, pregnant with my second. My first is 15 months old. Both pregnancies were magical surprises, after 17 years of infertility. With my first I was super tired and nauseous starting at week 6. I'm only 4 weeks right now, and don't feel any symptoms yet.
  • I just turned 35, found out on my birthday I was pregnant. This is my third and so different. I barely feel many symptoms and my oldest is 13, and has been trying to do everything for me, so it’s different with having extra help above my husband, even though I’m still not feeling the need for it.
  • I am 35! Will be 36 in April. This is my second pregnancy, first ended in a loss. I’m feeling very hopeful and a lot less anxious than I thought I would. Glad to be here :)
  • 36! I’ve miscarried twice in the past. Long ago, when I was young, extremely unhealthy and stressed. Since then I’ve steered clear of trying to get pregnant. My husband and I decided to start trying and it only took a couple cycles, so I’m hoping that’s a sign that what’s meant to be will be. Happy to hear so many are older than me and are doing so well! Congrats everyone!
  • I’m 36, this is my first pregnancy, tomorrow will be 6 weeks! I’m a little queasy at times but not barfing (thank goodness), sore boobs, and the main thing for me is feel suuuuper bloated. Anyone else get that bloat really early on? I like like I’m already 4 months by the end of the day

  • Age factor, This one is hard. If you have the best prenatal vitamins than its fine otherwise the more you get older more you find it hard. I have been taking prenatal vitamins with DHA by secrets of tea and this product is the best
  • Hello. I just turned 43 and this is my first pregnancy. I know the pregnancy is still early but I had been absolutely exhausted for the past two weeks. Have been nervous about miscarriage but got to see the heartbeat yesterday and it made me feel so much better. 🥹
  • Yes I forgot the boob pain- the worst!
  • I’m 37. Second pregnancy. 8 weeks and 3 days! I’m pretty sure I was asleep for all of February-I was so exhausted and my boobs are out of this world tender! I also feel nausea but no vomiting. I had no symptoms during my first pregnancy.
  • I am 40. First time pregnancy. Baby due in October so I’ll be 41 when I give birth. Loving every moment! Thankful no symptoms besides heavy breasts, very tired, and appetite is increasing.
  • Hi everyone! I’m 34, will be 35 when the baby is born. My first baby, it has been a whirlwind! Experiencing lots of naseau and tiredness, some headaches. But so excited, we had been trying for a while 😊
  • I’ll be 40 in August, due October 19th - this is my 9th pregnancy, but hopefully the first to be born 🤞. Nausea has been debilitating for weeks, but slightly lessened when I asked chat gpt to help me come up with an anti-nausea menu with foods I love. I’ve learned to carry snacks with me everywhere! My boobs feel like anvils and I can’t believe how much I’m sleeping either, I’ve had to seriously slow my life down lately but I want this baby so bad I’m willing do go through anything. Still, pregnancy totally sucks so far! 😆
