in TTC after 35
Hi ladies! I wanted to swing by and introduce myself (albeit a bit early) - I won't be 35 until next month, but I figure I'm darn close enough for at least an intro, right? 
Me: (almost) 35
DH (almost) 36
DS: 2.5 years old
DH and I have been trying for a 2nd since December 2013. I had a (very fleeting) BFP at the end of March that ended in a chemical just a few days later. My blood work indicated very low progesterone at the time. OB tested progesterone again at 7 DPO this past cycle and progesterone level was 2.6 - so lower than expected for ovulation. So, my OB has referred me to an RE and our first appt is July 29th, just a couple weeks before my 35th birthday.
I'm currently trying acupuncture to naturally balance my hormone levels, weaning off caffeine for the month, and trying to meditate/relax for one last ditch effort before the RE. I was actively part of the bump community my entire 9 months of pregnancy and beyond and have been (somewhat) active on the TTC board over the last 7 months.
Just wanted to say hello and hope to get to know some of you!!
