Hi,
My mum fell pregnant with my sister at 41 and had her at 42. My brother was 7, I was 5. She was an older mum anyway, but that was career driven. All I can say is, my sister just turned 18 and my mum 60, and it has kept her so young! She looks about 40! Yes she says she gets tired and exhausted, whilst some of her friends are retired in their sunny second homes abroad. She also feels like she could have retired earlier if she hadn't had to pay school fees, followed by supporting us through uni (but that is a personal thing). All I can say is you will be fine! My sister and I get along so so well, yes you have to do the baby thing again but it will be worth it. There are plenty of mums your age having babies now. My mum also said by the third, you know how it goes and you no longer fear. My brother wasn't allowed ketchup etc until he was god knows how old. My sister would beg for chicken nuggets. So she had left her Annabel Karmel phase haha! Congratulations! You will be fine! X
