TTC after 35

Really, REALLY Sorry!

After reading over the board, I realized that this board is mostly for people with IF issues. I thought it was for anyone over 35 who was TTC, IF or not. I don't have/anticipate IF, so I don't think I belong here.

I am very sorry if I offended anyone by being here! I will leave now.

Re: Really, REALLY Sorry!

  • Absolutely you are welcome here!  I have been around for a while and am just now starting to seek assistance with an RE.  Please don't feel like you do not belong.. if you are 35+ and TTC you are in the right place!
    Me: 40 Dh: 41, TTC since August 2009, began Acupuncture and Herbs Sept 2011, began Temping and Charting Nov 2011. image
  • We're all in different stages of ttc here on the board some have just started and some for a bit longer, but have ttc over 35 in common.The move to an RE after 35 happens a bit quicker than the other boards, so you'll just see that here more often but it doesn't mean everyone is dealing with IF.   If your 35 and older and ttc your certainly welcome!

    I agree with Llama.  It is for anyone TTC over 35.  I don't have IF issues..that I know of anyway!  I had my first with no probelms at all the first month of trying.  This one is just taking a bit longer!

     

    Welcome and good luck!

  • I'm just over 35 and TTC as well, no IF problems yet.  These ladies are great!  Don't feel as though you have to leave... I'm not!  :)

    Not sure why you would think you offended anyone, but I'm 41 and have been TTC naturally and hoping that it will work out that way.    

    So this is the right board.

  • This board is for anyone over 35 trying to conceive.  A lot of us are already with RE's because it has been over six months of trying.

    You are very welcome here - although I hope your (and everyone's) stay here is short and sweet.

    I echo the other ladies; this board is for anyone 35+.  We do seem to have a lot of ladies who are dealing with infertility (in a variety of ways -- no intervention, IUIs, IVF -- and a variety of problems.  The reason it may seem like it is an IF-focused board is because people who aren't dealing with IF tend to move on pretty quickly.

    We are currently trying without assistance too.  We probably won't seek help until the end of the year, so more than 6 months for us. 
  • Thanks for the reassurance! I will stick around, since no one seems to mind!

    I'm not really sure what to expect. I go off of BCP (Zarah) at the end of this week, I'll have AF next week, then who knows? Ideally, I'd like my BFP after my July cycle, but it's not up to just me!

  • I lurk here :)..and I started here...I will say this, the TTC after 35 is a great board.  I tried the Trying to get pregnant board and I really felt like I didn't belong.  I feel it's my age / personality.  These ladies are supportive and caring (not to say the ladies on TTGP are not), but most of the ladies on TTGP are younger with less "life experience" :).

    Good Luck to you and welcome!!!

  • You are certainly welcome here. The only reason it seems like an IF board is that people with IF tend to stick around. It's like that on all the TTC boards not just here.

    If you feel you can't relate to what is posted, why not start some non-IF posts? 

    Good luck with conceiving #3!
