Wanted to formally introduce myself.
Just recently got my BFP for Baby #2 on our third cycle of trying naturally. Still in a bit of shock, to be honest, as I thought it would take a lot longer. (I'm 40). We used the CBEFM and i have to say it was helpful. Other than that, I tried to eat well and exercise, take my vitamins and try to relax.
We have a daughter who I conceived naturallly at 37. It didnt take long, but i honestly can't tell you how long it took because i was so blissfully unaware that TTC after 35 might be an issue.
Anyway I feel as blessed and fortunate as i am sure all of you feel. I don't have my first OB appt for another few weeks, so until then I will be nervous nellie. I look forward to getting to know all of you and I hope some familiar faces from TTC after 35 make their way over here soon. I'm rooting for everyone over there!
Enough about me! have a great day everyone! ![]()

Welcome! I'm a former TTC 35+er myself. I still lurk quite a bit and try to give some advice, etc...where I can. I saw your BFP and I was wondering when you might make your way over here. I love seeing good news come off of that board.
Congratulations and H&H 9mos to you!
