My husband is super excited. I'm really up and down. I've had this anxiety attack going on ever since. I'm 35, so I was reading up on pregnancy at 35 and over....I guess I'm "advanced maternal age" and there is a host of risks involved. It's pretty nerve racking...any here have a baby at 35 +?

[Bricktop]

Not me.



However, daughter in law just had a beautiful bouncing baby boy and she's 40.

I was 38 with the last pregnancy. She was an "oops" baby.  



If there is anything specifically you are concerned about......have a candid discussion with your OBGYN.



Just follow what the Dr. tells you, watch your blood glucose levels, keep track of you blood pressure and get lots of folic acid in the first 3 months. More and more women today are choosing to wait and have children at a later age. In fact 35 is really not that bad. Some women are into there 40s and they are having kids. The majority of women who are older do just fine.  



Although you might be at risk more so for certain complications you should be fine as long as you are healthy. But as with any pregnancy, regardless of the mother's age, there are no guarantees. Just relax, don't freak out, and take it one step at a time. ac_biggrin

What risks are you talking about Dove?

As in "oops" I shouldn't have got drunk in that sailor's hangout??



DiL had LOTS of tests that ensured that the baby was fine all through the pregnancy. If there are any anomalies, they can pick them up very early.



You'll be fine.



Besides, you have a God to look after you.

 Truth. But that doesn't mean things always go smooth like you want.
