Becstar ... thanks heaps for sharing, so great to know i have a BB pal to ' feel ' weird with, LOL ... yeh, the two OB's i saw were both men ... looked at me like i was some criminal for having my 1st born bub at 40, also they kept verbally reminding me of what age i was (like i had forgotten) ... Well, my two beautiful midwives that saw me all through my entire pregnancy were cheering for me ... My pregnancy was just amazing, i drove everyone insane as i loved being preg so much, infact i told the midwives when i was 38weeks when standing in queue waiting for my appt that i wish i had two more months, needless to say the preg woman standing around me heard what i said & looked at me like i must be nuts.

All i had was HBP (due to being an older expectant Mum) & that was it ... i went onto have a drug-free vag birth (i only went 2days overdue). My midwives treated me like some goddess on the maternity wing, was very funny

Satya ... sorry to say BUT it's soooo NICE to know i'm not the only 43year old on the BB block, harr harr ... (lets not tell everyone being in ya 40's sux, let 'em all find out for themelves ... So, frustrating having a heart like a 20something & the inside body works of a 40year old woman, LOL i've gotta laugh or i will start crying)

Trish ... that's so kind & sweet, i wuvz you too
