My profile
I am 38 yrs old and married for almost 14 yrs. I have a son, who will be 4 in July. It took us 9 years to have him! He is a great kid with an awesome sense of humor and kindness that makes him an extrovert! We always wanted another child, we tried for while when my son was 2 yrs old, but nothing...so we just figured it wasn't meant to be.
Well, on April 17th, after 2 weeks of some serious sore boobs, I tested...YEP! So I am due between Dec 24th and the 26th. A holiday baby! Of course there is stress..I am officially called a woman of AMA..ADVANCED MATERNAL AGE...that means I am over 35. Bummer.....don't like the term and the additional stress Doc's place on us AMA's to do extra testing. I am also high risk due to diabetes. I had it with my son....and it means alot of testing and monitoring. Takes some of the joys out of being pregnant, but it is do-able. My son was born healthy and at a great weight of 7lbs and 6 oz.....most diabetics have huge babies!
So.....I will do my 1st trimester screening this wed., and then an amnio if I come up with a high ratio....other than that, I am enjoying teh process, even with morning sickness that lasts all day and some serious energy drains!!!

Message to all This may be interesting to some of you. Seema`s email is seema.modhvadia@rdftelevision.com
Hi there,
I work for a television production company based in the UK . We are currently making a documentary for ITV1 exploring the issues surrounding pregnancy and eating disorders. The film will be a thoughtful and insightful look into this extremely sensitive subject.
We’re in the research stage of our production and very keen to chat to women who are, or have been, pregnant whilst having an eating disorder.
If you’re interested in having a chat or finding out more about our documentary, it would be really great to hear from you. All communication would be in complete confidence.
You can contact me on: seema.modhvadia@rdftelevision.com

I have a quiet baby in general, kinda like what you described, they'll be moments of some strong movement, then a lot of time will pass during the day with none at all.

I had post partum depression after having a c-section, which I feel was a contributing factor (plus I believe having two pregnancies back-to-back really took a toll on my body, draining every last bit out of me, I had to really focus on eating and that usually made things better)... and anxiety issues (easiest way to define it). Defining, acknowledging, and embracing the difficulties that exist is step one, and perhaps evaluating our history to figure out WHY they exist. This leads to understanding and the ability to choose to believe that while these things are part of me, they do not define who I am. Then you have the knowledge about what needs to change, and the power to choose to make the change. My problem is I know what I need to change, and even have some very specific plans of action to deal with situations, but most times I make the choice to let old habits take control. Not sure if any of that helps. To this day I still struggle with what I like to call a "lack of motivation" (it's so depressing to say I'm depressed). I wish I had more answers for you, but all I can do is let you know you're not alone and to encourage you that there is hope. At least this time you are prepared and can take some steps to maybe prevent, know the symptoms to look for, etc etc. I do feel compelled to share this Native American story about emotions, but it's long, so I uploaded it as a pdf:
