Older new Moms (oops but a blessing) with older children

I’m 40 and have a 5 year old, I would love to have another, how many of you fell pregnant without help over 40? Any recommendations on supplements? Thank you 💖

I keep googling high chance of birth defects, miscarriages etc. I know there’s lots of older mums/ mums to be out there. But on other hand, feel like I’ve been selfish doing this. Why is public perception cruel to women but not men!

Glad I found you all. What are some tips for getting through the toddler stage? Are you approaching parenting differently than you did with your older children?

Hey My two children have reached some sort of independence - aged 10 & 8. We get lay ins, we can have late evenings, lazy days & days out are easy! I’m so worried about adding a newborn into this fantastic dynamic & going backwards! My eldest is not happy about the new arrival. My youngest is so excited! Any advice/relatable stories to reassure me that I’m not making a huge mistake?!

Hi Everyone!! I’m due in March with baby number 4. I turn 40 two weeks after my due date!! I also have a 14 year old son and twin 12 year old daughters. Second marriage and this is my husbands first. Not planned but very excited now lol it took a few weeks to get my head around starting over again.
