Pregnant with my 4th at 52
I am currently pregnant with my fourth child, and I'm 52.
My baby is due February 10th, and I will be 53 when it is born.
One of my purposes for joining groups like this is to hopefully spread some confidence in other women over 50 who are trying to conceive.

TODAY'S BOOK SUGGESTION:
You Make Me Feel Like an Unnatural Woman: Diary of an Older Mother
by Judith Newman
-- Today the number of women having their first child over thirty-five has increased by a bazillion fold, or some equally scary large number.
Newman is the first to write a book that tells what it's really like when a trip to the drugstore entails the purchase of both diaper cream and wrinkle cream; when "
getting your shotsmeans both immunization and Botox.
You Make Me Feel Like an Unnatural Woman is not only about having children later in life: it's about what happens to a marriage—and to the spirit, when even the most sought-after baby comes.
Wry, warm, and brutally honest, this is the book for any woman—whatever her age—who has awakened at 3AM to the insistent shrieks of her darling and thought: Oh man, I'm too old for this.
Paperback: 320 pages
