This community was amazing when we were just starting out on the IF journey so many years ago. Having spent so much time here I've made some lifelong friends! If only I could say the same about those pesky Peggies 🤣

I am 35 years old my dh is 40. We've been ttc number 2 for almost 8 years and just recently completed our first iui cycle and thr 2 week wait is already killing me. We have secondary infertility. My husband's swimmers have low motility. I look forward to seeing us all get our bfp.
Ages (you and SO): My husband and I are both 25
How many months have you been TTC?: 8 months
What are you doing to get knocked up (WAYDTGKU)?: OKP, cervical mucus and BBT tracking, have done Day 21 Progesterone test (ovulating normally) and AMH (low number of eggs for my age 😢). My husband is getting an analysis soon, as well. We’ve completely revamped our diet and cut out caffeine. It feels like my whole life is about TTC.
Tell us about yourself! (Kids, pets, job, hobbies, etc.) We are both teachers, we have a 1 year old black lab who never gets tired, and my hobby is reading articles about how to get pregnant 🙃. I’m hoping this community will be a better outlet than endless online scrolling.
Welcome ladies, I hope your stay here is short!
