▪️I am 35 years old, I am happily married with a soon to be 13 year old daughter and an awesome soon to be 10 year old bonus son. 🩷💙

▪️ having recently laying everything out on the table my husband came out with an idea of trying now till end of January for a baby. It’s something we’ve spoken previously about but not too deep.

▪️ Anxiety kicked in, I would absolutely love to but then I have these thoughts of omg starting over. Literally having a dependent, at least now my daughter is independent and can do things for herself you know? So I guess what I am asking is for your thoughts on this topic. I know this is sometimes the average age a woman has a baby, but did I miss my window? Is it scary carrying with chronic illness? Just spiraling 🌀 with emotions.

... Read moreThe decision to have another child later in life can be daunting, especially for mothers in their mid-30s. Many women face similar feelings of anxiety about the changes to their lifestyle, especially when older children are becoming independent. Understanding these emotions is crucial. It's not uncommon to worry about physical health, particularly if there are chronic conditions involved. Research indicates that pregnancy at 35 and older comes with increased risks, yet many women successfully navigate this path. Seeking advice from experienced mothers can be incredibly beneficial. Online communities and forums often provide personal stories that may help you understand what to expect. Engage in discussions about balancing family dynamics with new parenthood; this can alleviate some fears. Tips on preparing for different physical and emotional challenges might also be helpful. Together, we can foster support and build confidence in making informed parenting choices as we embrace the complexities of family life at any age.

I’m 37 with a soon to be 15 year old daughter, 4 year old son (she was 10 when he was born) and another boy due in about 6 weeks, literally right at her 15th birthday. I was nervous. I have lupus, so chronic illness here too! It was scary not being very sure of what could go wrong and being of “advanced maternal age”
