After 2 years of trying… Here we go… worried about loss

So, I’m pregnant! But I’m 40 and we tried to conceive naturally for 2 years, “unexplained infertility” despite of having a 13 year old… my first pregnancy was unexpected and totally easy but being a single mom was very hard.

Years later I found an amazing husband, we were so ready, everything “looked good” to add a little sibling but we just never got pregnant. Then, 3 days after I turned 40 we did a cycle of IUI knowing the odds were against us, after two negative home urine tests the blood tests came out positive!!! So I actually did get pregnant!! 5 weeks tomorrow.

However, It’s been such a roller coaster that I don’t feel confident enough to be happy. I’m worried about chromosomal abnormalities or miscarriage. I’m worried about losing my baby and spending a couple years trying again or realizing I will have to give up. I thought this miracle would make me immensely happy but it has brought me so much anxiety that’s hard to live day by day…

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)
Thank you in advance! 🥰

Help

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

32 weeks

32 week growth scan and clinic appointment. Did anything unusual happen? Ive heard a few people saying 32 weeks was when they had a induction date
