in TTC after 35
Hello ladies
I was on this board while TTC the last time around. I recognize some familiar names but there are a lot of new ones. I look forward to getting to know those who weren't here back in March.
Long story short:
Both my BF and I are 41. We were TTC for 15 months before we got our BFP. We were so excited to be expecting a little boy. At my 20 wk anatomy scan we found out he was measuring only 17wks and I had low amniotic fluid. The told us to come back in 2 weeks, which is when we found out he no longer had a heartbeat. I had to wait to be admitted to the hospital and delivered him 4 days later. Copper was born 7/25/15.
My OB told us we could start trying again right away, My acupuncturist told me to wait 2 cycles, My BF want's to start again asap... AF showed up 1 month to the day after and here we are trying again. Not sure if I'm emotionally ready, I know time is not on our side, so I have to be ready.
I look forward to both giving and getting support from all you lovely ladies this time around.
(Sorry it wasn't as short as I had intended)

There are no words to describe the heartache associated with a recent loss. With all you just went through I'm sure you are grieving immensely.
I can completely understand being eager to ttc again.
Sending you lots of love and best wishes with ttc whenever you are ready xoxoxo
