Trouble TTC

Introduction ** Children mentioned **

Hello! 

I wanted to introduce myself as I have a feeling I'll be spending some time here as I try to navigate fertility treatments. 

A little about me. I'm 40 years old (so definitely AMA) and have been trying to conceive for 5 months now. I do have 3 children ages 12, 10 and 5. I had no problems conceiving the first two, but between my second and third I had three consecutive miscarriages. I saw a RE who said I had low progesterone and after another three months of TTC so were blessed with our sticky baby. And then we thought our family was complete. 

Except, we decided a few months ago we wanted to try for a 4th. 

I met with another RE for the first time last week. AMH test was done, but the results aren't in. I'm going in on Thursday for an ultrasound and then am expected to start Clomid. She believes the issue is my eggs are obviously old (LOL) so the hope is to produce more eggs and hope one takes. 

Thanks for having me. I was active on these boards awhile ago, especially during times of my miscarriages.
