     As you've probably discovered, if your this far into our site, our Editor, Leah Black is expecting her 2nd baby. Congratulations to her!

    She now joins the ranks of "moms of many" and as it goes, we're a few years older (& hopefully wiser) the second & third times around.

    Look for her to chronicle her exeriences here with you & feel welcomed to chime in with your own experiences.  Whether this is your first baby or your fifth past this magic age that makes many MDs cringe we'd like to hear from you! One lucky contributor will be awarded a wonderful publication titled The Everything Pregnancy Organizer, which contains monthly calendars, charts, checklists & everything you need  and even more if you already have a little one or more to care for as well as yourself!

     Congratulations to Leah!

    My bit of advice is to relax and not take to heart how doctors treat you so differently at this "advanced" age.  I had my first at 27 and last at 39!!!  The way the medical community treated me each time was startlingly different, & I really had to work hard not to stress out over their constant focus on the increased risks of birth defects, Downs, etc.  Tests don't change the outcome, but stress is not good for either you or your  baby...
