I feel young again now. Truth be told, I had never felt older than when pregnant. But it was a strange experience.

I think the doc’s are ridiculous. What about all these movie stars having babies on the high half of forty? Just read where Demi Moore wants to get pregnant.

Of course you’re aching and creaking, you have a family you’re taking care of while you’re pregnant.

Wishing the best for you, and don’t worry about what other people think.

Geriatric Pregnancy my ASS! You ARE the vibrant gorgeous woman who should be in the pamphlet, although it should be retitled Pregnancy in your PRIME!

Oh, and can you get on that pumpkin bread please?

I was young (a baby really, at age 27, when I had my first child). But, I wasn’t doing any twirling…unless you count the twirling of the water in the toilet bowl that I threw up in EVERY, SINGLE day.

I loved this line: The only reason it sustained life was because an ardent sperm revived it with sweet talk and CPR. I’ll be giggling about the visual it induced in my mind’s eye probably the rest of the day now!

I can’t speak from experience as per pregnancy later in life -I was 32 when my youngest arrived -but I will tell you this much about children keeping one younger, that part I do believe is true. Ok, it still doesn’t keep the creaking joints oiled any better and the memory tends to go off on its own little tangents too, but as one who is 64 years old and living with a 5-year-old and her 2 1/2 year old brother in my house, yes, they do make me feel younger in many way! Of course, they are my grandchildren and I DON’T have 100% of the worries that accompanies parenthood with them that I had with my kids but still, since they came on the scene, it does give me added incentive. Also gave me more fight when I was diagnosed with cancer five years ago, has helped me fight the depression that has so often plagued me throughout much of my life as well! And, as your friend told you, “Who feels good during pregnancy?” Ain’t that the truth though!
