Intro

in TTC after 35
Hello! I just wanted to introduce myself, as I have been lurking for a little while. I have learned a lot in the short amount of time I have been here-- so thank you!

I am 36 and about to be married for the first time in 9 days. My honey (32) and I are really eager to get this party started, and we made our first attempt this cycle.

While I have been temping off and on for the past six months, I had no idea what I was doing until I came here and got FF. I'm learning a lot! I have found that I have really short LP's and O a lot later than I thought, so I'm thinking we blew it this month.

I'm looking forward to learning more from your community, and becoming a part of it!

    Welcome!! Isn't it amazing how much there is to not know about your own body? I just started temping this cycle and I'm still figuring it all out.

    Congrats on the upcoming wedding!!

    @WinoGrrl‌ Yes! I have been totally ignorant, and now I'm obsessed with learning everything I can! Also, it has been a great distraction from obsessing over the upcoming wedding! And thank you! I really never thought it would happen for me :\">

    Welcome! I'm pretty new here too, and also new to temping; I find it fascinating and it's hard to believe that just a few months ago I knew so very little about what it takes to get pregnant.

    Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! Exciting!

    Welcome to this board! Have a beautiful wedding.

    ETA: If your LP is shorter than 10 days, I would suggest talking to your doctor.

    Welcome!  Congratulations on your wedding!  I second what @URMySunshine77 said - if you're LP is consistently less than 10 days, talk to your doctor.  One thing I've learned is not to waste any time!  Good luck!

    Welcome and congratulations!
    me:41   dh:43 
    Off Mirena Nov 2013, On Nuvaring end of Jan, Back off Sept 2014.  Never ending cycle starting end of Sept... 
    11/14 Provera failed... cycle continues 
    12/14 High FSH (57 "midcycle")  OBGYN had no clue... about anything 
    01/15 More lab results coming back from RE. U/S showed small (1")cyst on left ovary, thin lining, and couldn't locate right ovary so  possibly straight to DE and IVF 

    Occassionally mess with the chart below to see "what if" and learn (not to make it pretty but because FF stays drunk with me).
