[quote=Anonymous]BTW, my friend who lost her baby at 36 weeks was 43. I'm 41. My OB assures me that we'll take the baby early if my placenta seems to be calcifying (which I guess can happen with older moms) but its not that reassuring to me b/c my friend's placenta wasn't calcified at all. She is also a nurse (not OB, but still) and in very good shape, eats a vegetarian diet, etc. Its one of those things I think we just all have to accept are possibilities that we can't directly control, like car accidents caused by other drivers or acts of nature. Just do the best you can to take care of yourself. For me, I think the hardest thing about being pregnant for the first time at 41 is knowing all that can go wrong because I've had so many friends who suffered fetal loss. When I was in my 20's, being pregnant meant having a bouncing baby 10 months later. Now I know acutely how lucky I am and don't take a single kick for granted.[/quote]
