We are not finding out!
Mrs2amomma- your symptoms sound exactly like mine! Protein! Yuck! How was your u/s?
I'm still throwing up daily. Have had the odd day that's been ok. Am hoping it won't last the entire pregnancy because I've lost 12lbs already. I have it to lose but just want baby to be happy and healthy.

Anyone else feeling anxious or nervous about being older and having a baby?
I am 40 and my husband is 45. We're expecting our second child, a boy..which took three years and 2 ivf treatments to conceive. We are blessed. I am just feeling anxious about the articles and how paternal age can affect the rates of autism. It is just astounding to me, even though they say it's not the cause, it's a contributing risk factor which is so bewildering.
Anyone who is older and had a successful pregnancy and healthy child prior would love to hear from you!

We have our anatomy ultrasound on Nov 10th. I am soooooo excited! My DH was with me at the 7 week ultrasound but not at the 12 week one. Sooooo this will be his first time actually seeing the baby in action- not to mention looking like a human and not a grayish shadow! We are not finding out the sex, so team green for us! This is our first and we are so beyond excited...it has been many years coming!

I wish I could be team green - but I don't have it in me to wait!
Had another ultrasound today to check the babies and my cervix and all looks good. Fun to see how much bigger they are! A has decided to camp out on my left side and B has taken over the right.
Went to look at double strollers the other day too... Terrifying! And they are so much more expensive. Sigh...

ggirl,
I'm 40, I'll be 41 when our second child is born. I have a lot of concerns to but I'm really trying to focus on the positive, expecially when it took us so long to get to the point where we can give our DS a sibling
. I'm focusing on the good, and that so far, the pregnancy is going well, and that all tests have been coming back normal, thank goodness!
Would love to hear from other parents to!
