Aren't I too OLD to have another baby?

So, 2 weekends ago we were doing our bi-monthly grocery shopping trip. This is where we stock up for 2 weeks on supplies like bread, lunch meat, fruits and vegs, and personal care items. I had noticed that I hadn't bought any pads for awhile and I went to grab a big family size pack of Always Plus when all of a sudden I realized, I was 10 days late!


Now, I'm a bit.... um.... older... and so late periods are not that abnormal for me. I've been anywhere from 2-5 days late before and not been pregnant. In fact, just this past May I was 5 days late and in a panic I texted my sis-in-law telling her about it and she laughed at me and said it was probably stress (because I had been dealing with alot that month) and that I should take a test to be sure. So I went out and grabbed a pregnancy test that had 2 tests in it, just in case one came out positive and I had to double up to make sure. (Turned out I wasn't pregnant.)


Anyhoo, 2 weekends ago, when I came to the realization about my pads, I decided to come home and do that pregnancy test that had sat in my top drawer for the past few months. I went into the bathroom and peed on the stick and almost immediately, the test turned positive. I honestly didn't know what to do next. My heart was beating so fast, and I felt.... excited! Could it be true? Am I going to be someones Mommy, again?


I went and layed down in my room so I could think. A couple minutes later my bf and daughter came into my room to tell me we had to go back to the store because we forgot a few things. I said "Ya, ok. Um, we need to pick up a pregnancy test too because this one says positive." My bf gave me a funny look and said ok, and my daughter didnt understand what I had just said.


So we went back to the store, and I went and got an expensive "Clearblue" test. You know, the kind that turns into a plus (+) sign if your pregnant. We got home and I went straight to the bathroom and pissed on the stick.


Sure enough, it turned into a Plus sign right away. There was no dening it. I walked out to the living room and said to my bf "Well, I guess we are going to have another baby." Our daughter looked up at me with quizzacle eyes and so I said to her directly "Guess what baby? Your going to be a big sister. Mommy is going to have a baby."


You should have seen the look on her face. Her eyes and face literally lit up. She clasped her hands together and started jumping up and down and yelled "YESSSS!!! OH MY GOODNESS! YES!!!! I'm gonna be a big sister!"


My first ultrasound is tomorrow. We are all very excited to meet this new baby.
