^DD^ was diagnosed with cancer when I was immediately postpartum. Honestly, caring for a baby while ^dd^ was going through cancer was so comforting. The baby went with me everywhere, even through hospitalizations, and it all worked out just fine. My best advice is to get a very good baby carrier. I wore baby 12-15 hours a day (all the time except when nursing or changing diapers).

Congrats!!

It's kind of amazing to me that no matter how wild or hard the circumstance, there is usually someone who has btdt and can tell you that it will be ok.

Congratulations!  I'm so happy that your new baby will be coming into a home as the little one that fulfilled the dream in his/her mommy's heart.  What a wonderful start for a baby!  

Best wishes for your health and for your next youngest -- I hope the love for the new baby will be a comfort and a hope for the seven year old, too!

if it helps, I didn't feel "old" and pregnant until I had one at 40, lol. My 2nd was when I was 35, I was still a spring chicken then! Had two more after her!

I had my first at 38 and my second at 40.  I felt older the second time.
