TTC after 35

Intro of a returning member! (child mentioned)

Hello ladies! 

I am excited to be returning to this board as DH and I begin our journey to TTC#2. I had a wonderful experience here while TTC#1, and then on the PG>35 board, and I'm hoping it's still the same supportive and encouraging community. Judging from the ground rules post, it most definitely still is. It is a different ballgame after 35 for many of us and I'm glad to be among other women who get that. My last pregnancy had many complications and I was on and off of bed rest multiple times, however, thankfully I was able to carry to term and have a healthy baby girl. 

This time I'm charting right away, something I regretted not doing until after several months last time. I have irregular cycles and I was never able to detect ovulation with just OPK, I always missed it. Ultimately the month we conceived we DTD every other day for the whole month. I hope charting earlier this time will help but looking at this month ovulation was not detected. :/ 

Anyway, I look forward to jumping in and sharing this journey together, and offering my support and encouragement to my fellow AMA ladies!

  • Welcome back. There is a sigi tutorial on the new to the bump board. I'm mobile so I can't see how long your bump break was. The new bump is quite different than the last format.

    Good to see you charting right away this time. I'm jealous that your DH would have sex every other day for a month. I'm lucky to get twice during my FW.

    This is still an amazing group of woman. We arent like any other group on the bump.

    Hope your stay with us is short and sweet

  • Welcome! I'm new here but lurked for a while. This board rocks!! GL TTC!
  • Welcome. I've been here since January or so and it's definitely super supportive. Xo
    TTC#1 since Aug 2013, I'm 37, DH 41.  
    Maya Arvigo Abdominal massage (daily self care), plus TTC meditations.
    I'm very sensitive to diet (gluten, avoid processed foods) and environment. Have a history of inflammation and tendinitis before going off gluten in 2009.  
    July 2014 - RE Visit #1: Eggs look good, Endometrioma on R ovary, HSG showed blocked R tube close to ovary. DH SA normal 
    DX: Endometriosis probably the IF cause and gunking up tubes.  Since egg reserve is high, RE says I can wait a couple months and then get laproscopic surgery to remove endo & clear tube.  If that doesn't help then move to IVF. 
    Dec 2014 - Saw new RE - does not recommend surgery on tube as it isn't likely to help.  Doubts I have endometriosis.  My endometrioma shrunk to neglible size (yay!) 
    Seriously considering IVF in March/April
    12/17/14 - Natural BFP!
