are all things that are causing me a little worry. Nice to be able to get this off my chest here as although husband very supportive, he doesn't fully understand how overwhelming it can be to in this situation and I don't want to tell friends of family yet. To all the newly pregnant ladies, I wish you the best and I pray that things go well for me and my little one too of course! User588628 said on 01 September 2011 I'm lying here in bed in shock! Partner away - been feeling unwell for a few weeks, headaches, tired and short of breath. Didn't even occur to me that I might be pregnant until I thought (in the middle of another sleepless night) I better rule it out before I go to the doctors.... Did test, am 3 weeks pregnant. I am 39 and have 2 children age 13 and 9 by a previous relationship- we had given up really, not used contraception for 3 years, had an early miscarriage last summer and since then not been living well really, drinking too much etc - god, can't believe it. Not holding out too much hope for full term but at least I've caught it early, shall be healthy from now on!! I can't believe I thought my symptoms were stress or illness - I've been having such a hard time recently, money problems, work stress, arguing like cat and dog! This is really a bolt from the blue,
