Six weeks along at 44

Catherine | 9:00 AM | 0 comments

I am 44 and due on April 10/07... only six weeks along right now, but my first ultrasound looked good this week!

I have a 19 year old son, an 18 year old daughter and an 11 year old step-son. All siblings are very excited about this upcoming birth!

I will be 45 at delivery but am at complete peace with this pregnancy as I know it is all in God's hands. My husband and I were not expecting this at all, but we are feeling truly blessed and excited beyond belief!

I'm glad I found this site as it is very encouraging... Thank You!

TODAY'S BOOK SUGGESTION:

Ready: Why Women Are Embracing The New Later Motherhood
In 2006, one in every twelve women giving birth for the first time in the US was 35 or older, while in 1970 it was just one in one hundred. Add in the many contemporary later adoptive moms and you’ve got a substantial portion of the population starting families after 35!

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost that precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted that there will be no more babies in our house.
