Hi I am 40 years old and this is my 5th pregnancy the last one I miscarries at 5 weeks. I have had 5 positive tests all getting stronger every two days. My belly is huge I have no appetite and mils soreness of breasts. My previous pregnancies where very different by now I was really sick. I was infact sick before i even had a pregnancy test confirmed. I'm trying to keep it quiet until i know thigs are ok but it is hard when by belly is so swollen. Can this pregnancy really be that different? Really worried. Anybody had anything similar?
Thanks

Hi neates,
I'd recommend you to go the safest way possible here, mostly because the last time you miscarried. Your stomach shouldn't be this big at only 5 weeks, and since the pregnancy is there, with more and more hpt, I think you should go and have ultrasound done, together with ob-gyn examination.
At 40, chances for complications in pregnancy are much bigger than when you were younger, so you need to treat this pregnancy differently than the earlier ones because your body simply isn't same anymore.
Hope everything goes well,
Nicole
