TTC after 35

Intro - 41 and TTC #1

Hi.  I just wanted to introduce myself while I lurk around and try to figure out all the acronyms.  I will be 41 next month and DH is 40.  We just got married last month and are TTC.  I'm excited and a little obsessed with fertility right now so I'm just trying to learn as much as I can.  I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone.

  • Welcome and congratulations on getting married! I post more in the IF IVF boards lately, but still lurk over here. :) DH will be 42 next month and I'll turn 42 in September and we're TTC#1. We jumped to IVF and are waiting for our first FET sometime this summer. Good luck to you!

    Welcome to the board!
  • Thanks for the warm welcome everyone.  What are some of the other boards you like to frequent?  Looking at all of them is a bit overwhelming so I'm looking for a couple that are the most relevant and active.
