TTC after 35
Rejoining the fray.....sort of. (baby pics in siggy)
Hi ladies,
Almost two years ago I joined this board (I posted under a diff screen name then) and got the support of the amazing women here while I was TTC. I was lucky enough to get pregnant after 5 months right after I turned 36 and in January I had my wonderful, sweet DD. She is so wonderful that we have decided we want one more.
Due to our ages (37 and 43) we want to start sooner than later, unfortunately, I am nursing and AF has not yet returned. I'm hoping she'll be back very soon though as DD eats more real food and nurses less.
I'm hoping this time will be different than last time when I was BSCrazy obsessed. I keep telling myself that we will just let things happen, no FF an all that but I'm pretty sure my brain can never work like that. Anyway, as a result of my previous obsession, I am pretty knowledgeable about TTC and all that goes with it.
Anyway, I wanted to introduce myself because while I probably won't do too many original posts until I am officially TTC, I will be lurking and responding.
Oh yeah, one last thing (will she ever stop talking??), I seem to recall that this board was OK with baby pics in siggies but if not just say the word and I'll remove them.
Good luck to everyone.

hi laura,
welcome back. i think that's a great mentality to have for TTC #2. DH and I were the same way. The first go around it was so stressful due to a couple miscarriages and how long it took to conceive (2 years with an IVF with ICSI). But after DD #1 was born I felt much less pressure (imposed by myself mind you) to have another baby, even though I definitely wanted one. I didn't take my temp, chart, etc. partly because I didn't want to and partly because I just didn't have as much time to obsess about TTC with DD#1 running all around taking up our time. We tried to time our BDing as best as we could and had one failed IVF with ICSI. We wound up conceiving DD #2 the month after the failed IVF and all i was using was my CBEFM.
best of luck on your journey to 2!
