Scary News!!

Hi March Friends Well after going to the Doc yesterday got a call about hour later & God has a very funny way of throwing curves at us when we least expect it!! I am pregnant at 54 years old. Very Scary at best. MY Doc says I should be just fine, but risks are for sure out there. I do not believe in abortion so if I carry this full term on my own will be a Mom at almost my Birthday. in Dec. Billy is in as much shock as I am & still has not talked about it, just walked out on me last night & have no clue how or what he will do. I am sure he will come around soon, just in shock. I go back to the Doc today to get all the good & bad stuff about all of this. I am happy, but very scared too!! LOts of prayers needed here. Ladybug Marilyn

Wow! That threw me for a loop! Congratulations. Make sure you sign up for a program called Women, Infants and Children. They will provide you with vouchers to buy eggs, cheese, cereal, milk and juice so you get the nutrients you and the baby need. Hugs, Connie

Yup, plan too!! Thanks, for the support, will need all of it!! but I think I am actually still in shock, too!! It may be a long nine months going thru the summer pregnant, but oh well!! Other have done it long before me. Ladybug Marilyn

marlyn...i am 54-all i can say is better you than me....no--how about OMG... awwww sweetheart!!!!!!! wow............... hugs and prayesr,margo

Yeah, I kind of said all of that!! & More Ladybug Marilyn

WOW! That's the LAST thing I expected to read. This actually happened to my ex mother in law, may she rest in peace. After she went through all the doctor things, they discovered she wasn't pregnant, but she was in menopause. Her body was 'imitating' pregnancy....BUT this was many years ago. Good luck and best of health! Joanie

They are actually running a whole bunch more blood test tomorrow a.m (fasting) & think that maybe something else triggered the positive reading. I may not be pregnant afterall. I just want the accurate answer so I can make some decisions. If it turns out that I really am, then I will deal with it, but, this maybe thing is driving me more crazy then the initial phone call I got yesterday. NOw I am even more confused & BIlly is running scared as well. Neither one of us were ready for this, he will be 50 & has 6 kids all grown. Ladybug Marilyn

I wish the best for you. Would this be a first pregnancy for you?

Yup!! A lot of firsts these days!! Just had a bunch of blood work done to make sure that I really am. I will find out Monday. My emotions are shot to Hell & I am feeling very different these days so I think I really am. We will see!! I will update everyone next week. Ladybug Marilyn

Do you really want to be pregnant? I just don't want you to be disappointed or let down if you are not. I can't imagine doing it now....I just about made it through with the babies I had in my twenties and thirties! It's not an easy thing, but everything happens for a reason.....keep us posted and be strong! Joanie
