Is 44 to old to have a baby for a man?

Me and my partner are TTC but if we do he will be 44 by the time the baby is here. Or older if it takes a while

When did you go out of the house without your LO for the first time?

Whether is baby staying home with your partner or first date night, what was your timeline?

5 weeks and possible going to miscarry? Again!

Found out on the 1st of September with a clear blue digital which said 1-2 weeks. Today, my lines are looking lighter and again the digital said 1-2 weeks, which suggest my HCG isn’t rising as it should be😕 this will be my third loss in a row since July😪
I had a positive feeling about this one as the lines were much darker but now, they seem to be fading. I’m not coping😭 why is my body failing me? I don’t understand. I’ve not had any bleeding yet, do I have the right to be upset?

Leaking at 34 weeks?

For the past few weeks I’ve had quite strong braxton hicks, but I’ve put it down to probably doing too much at the time. Midwife appointment last week said baby’s head is engaged, which would explain why I feel so much pressure in my pelvis a lot and last night I woke up to use the toilet and my knickers were wet, but not soaking. It wasn’t like typical discharge, it’s only a little bit each time, it was more like urine but it’s happened a few times since and I don’t think I’m weeing myself 😬 I’m hesitant to go into PAU just in case it’s the fact I’ve became incontinent so just wondering what other people’s thoughts are and how I could test if it is a leak of the waters or if it is urine? I need to do school run anyways so if I did need to go into PAU then I’ll need to wait until after that anyways… not my first baby btw :)

Signs of early labour or am I overreacting?

I’m 37 weeks on Friday and I started getting lower back pain two hours ago, and some period pain. I also feel like I have to empty myself out for some reason. I’ve taken some pain relief so we will see if that helps but I’m not sure if I’m in early labour or if I’m overreacting and thinking 2+2=5, anyone feel this way recently?
