TTC after 35

Finally saying hello

Hi Ladies!

I've been lurking for a couple months now and wanted to finally do an intro.  I am 35 (36 in Oct) and my husband is 39 and we are fairly new transplants in Texas.  We will be married one year this weekend and have decided to start trying this month!  I'm excited and nervous.  Neither of us have any children and I am apparently really good at preventing because I've never had a scare.  We aren't sure how this will all go for us, but we are hopeful.  I'm hoping to get some great information and advise along the way from what seems like a great group of gals!

    Yes I'd say we are in a pretty green area...Hill Country!  We like it a lot so far.

    Thanks everyone for the warm welcome!

    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
