Good morning!
I'm 36 yo, from Western Canada, and my DH and I have been TTC for 11 months now. I only recently joined, but have been reading articles for months and lurking since I arrived. I live far from my family, so I guess I've just been looking for a community where I can talk about my struggles and not feel alone.
DH is 44, just had S/A done last month, and all is well on his end, so it's either me or just our timing. Even though my cycles are pretty regular, I want to get a better idea of what's really going on, so I just started temping/charting.
As you all know well, this has not been an easy road. Looking forward to learning more about myself and you all!
Me: 37, DH: 44
TTC #1 since September 2014
Canada

RE says the low egg count is likely causing my recurrent pregnancy loss. Less eggs results in more aneuploidy.
