Pregnant after 35

Intro and hello

I was hoping to join this board again. After struggling with IF for most of my 30's and finally deciding to do IVF that resulted in DD2 and an FET that resulted in DD3 I find myself surprisingly pregnant with our 4th a month before my 40th birthday. My husband is super excited I'm still mostly in shock and I'm trying to wrap my head around the fact that I can get pregnant the "old fashioned" way. We have three gorgeous girls that are excited to be big sisters again. I work full time as a designer for a new home builder and my husband is an teacher/administrator at the local high school. We love being parents even though it came later to us than most of our friends. I love to read, shop and travel and I look forward to getting to know you all! JM
