Parenthood begins at 40 - or thereabouts!

hello there!! are you bored like me? :( I think you want to know that Candi_Cruz is now live on dirtystage watch it now or try it later

Name: Twinkle
Age: 43
Location: Winchester
Do you have children? If so, how many and what ages: 1boy aged 5 (Vincent)
Are you pregnant - if so, how far gone: Second child due Nov 2008

Welcome! I've started this community because I'm a member and fan of both the uk_pregnancy  and oldermoms</lj>  communities and thought it would be good to create one that combined the two - a Brit-based community for older mums. So here it is!

(Also, I don't think 35 is "older" any more to be having your first child. In my NCT birth group five years ago at least most of the mums-to-be were in their mid-thirties or older (I was 37). Now aged 43, I'm having our second baby and I feel a hell of a lot older (and sorer!).)

So - somewhere to talk about our aches and pains, paranoia, triumphs, tribulations, whatever - let's talk amongst ourselves. At the moment it's open membership and open posting but if it's abused this may have to change. Let's make this work.
