TTC after 35

Quick intro.

Hi everyone. DH and I are both 35, 36 in November and just now ttc. We got married at 28 but we're basically scraping by financially so I went on the pill for many years. We now are better off than we were 7 years ago but worry we waited too long to ttc. Went off the pill last May. My periods have been regular since surgery in October (gallbladder removal) except last month, period was late and when I did get it, it was super light and only 2 days (assumed it was spotting, not a period). I have been using FF and temping and my chart looked super good but today, 11 dpo, my temp dropped .25 degrees but still above the cover line but starting to feel down. Took a test this morning (my husband picked up wine and before I drank, wanted to be safe) and it was negative.

That's me in a nutshell! Good luck everyone!
