First visit to family doctor

It's now past midnight and as usual, I am always doing my updating in the early hours of the day.

We had our first appointment with a possible family doctor candidate and she was quite and amusing person. What I liked was that she had been in my position, having a baby at a late age. I had tons of questions for her.

Ques/Comment: I am a little worried about being pregnant in my forties.
She said that nowadays it is becoming normal as more and more women are pushing marriage and motherhood further into their thirties.

Further comment on my anxieties: She told me that as long as having this baby is what we wanted then we should be happy and not be thinking of something else.

Ques/Comment: I don't have any morning sickness.
She told me not to worry as she and her friends who had babies at a late age did not experience any morning sickness and she breezed through her pregnancy. That was quite a relief for me to hear.

Ques/Comment: What about cravings?
Her answer was almost/well, I suppose I could say identical to what my dad's was. She said it's a possibility you have a balanced diet and all the nutrition need. Come to think of it, I have a read a lot of people who crave the foods they hate, so I guess there is truth in it. Also young people nowadays either eat too much of some foods or too little of some foods.
