Not menopause

Congratulations!🎉😂😅

I was pregnant at 43 and thought I was starting to miss my periods due to perimenopause too. If you want to be pregnant, go for it! And keep that gym membership, you can still workout while pregnant! If this is not what you want, I hope you can find resources to allow you to choose what's best for you. Also, a pregnancy later in life is not always viable and its possible it coud end on its own. Best of luck!

Snap! Not a grandma but definitely thought I was done and perimenopausal.

Congratulations! My oldest is 18 and we thought we couldn't have anymore 😳
Due June 17th. My first boy 🩵

Not a grandma but I got pregnant for the first (and only time) at 45. Had the baby at 46. Shocking as I was told I would be unable to have kids naturally!

My eldest is soon to be 22, just had my 6th at 45. You've got this 😄💞

Congrats!

I had my 4yo a few years into peri, thankfully I didn’t have my first child until 27, so they only have a 12y 3d gap, which doesn’t seem too unusual considering my bio brother & I have a 13y gap. I feel like the pregnancy set my hormones straight for a while tho, less than a year before I had missed 3 periods & wasn’t pregnant, it wasn’t the 1st time I’d skipped, but the longest, I haven’t missed a single one since having him, the rest of the symptoms came back about a year PP, except the RLS that was kicking my butt at night has only happened a couple times, but unfortunately/fortunately I had pregnancy RLS, but that type was treatable w/magnesium, unlike the peri version. Pregnancy was like a version of peri that’s a bit milder & a greater chance of finding some semblance of relief. But hey, I’m on year 7 now & not doing half bad. Sorry to laugh, my ex MIL had a similar experience, it was her daughter & I who told her to take a pregnancy test, we were 16, my ex husband was 20.🤣

Well, surprise 🤣and congratulations!!🥳🥳🥳🥳💐

Congrats mama. As for the gym- keep going, do light weights do everything you used to as long as your body keeps up. Gym gals can keep gymming when pregnant, it’s actually really good for our core to do weights while pregnant, look into your membership if they have unlimited fitness classes as some bigger gyms do, and try their beginner Pilates or yoga or even Zumba classes which are super fun. Utilise the gym membership you just bought 😂 but also know your body limits, take breaks when tired and listen to your body. We’re more likely to have a healthier pregnancy and less excess weight if we gym while pregnant, and esp at our age too. Less chance of pelvic floor issues or diastis recti later. I actually saw a pregnant mama at my salsa social last week- she’s still spinning and doing turns, pregnancy is not stopping her 💅🏽

Omg. Congratulations but my biggest fear I’m 43. I can’t imagine my granddaughter is four.

Congratulations!! You can keep your gym membership and stay active during your pregnancy! It is so funny that your kid will have niece/nephew older than them! It takes all kinds of families.

41 and so happy for my lil surprise 💕

Aww mama. U got this

I got prego as a grandma at 45, while my daughter was pregnant with my granddaughter lol, nothing surprises me
