I also had a 18 week loss, went on to have my daughter at 39.5 with no problems or extra monitoring. I also had an 8 week loss in 2003. I just had my son on 1-22-05 at the age of 44.
My OB did nothing special with me even at my advanced age. He said "you had no problems with my daughter.. and you were "old then"! Anyway, I think it depends on your history and OB. I was hoping to get more ultrasound, etc., but it did feel great to be treated like a "normal" pregnant woman. Believe it or not, I feel better this time around than I did after my daughter!

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost that precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted that there will be no more babies in our house.
