35 years old with baby #4!
I’m 13 weeks and just had my first prenatal appointment yesterday. It was so discouraging listening to their spiel about how I’m “advanced maternal age” and we will have to do this and this and this extra, and your placenta will not be as healthy so at this point we will have to make sure to do extra screenings and will aim to deliver between 39 and 40 weeks, and the risks of your child being born with a genetic condition is higher etc etc etc. I don’t feel old…lol. I feel the same as I did when I delivered my other babies (ages 8, 6, and 3) and had perfect pregnancies and deliveries. It’s just so discouraging. Feeling like I’m not meant to have babies at this point in my life and I’m walking on egg shells with this one. Now I just wait for genetic results 😬😬
