in TTC after 35
Hi guys. I've been lurking for quite a while and I thought it was time that I introduced myself. My husband and I have been together for the last 5 years. We have not been doing anything to prevent pregnancy for the past 2.5 years. We just got married in March and have been trying since February. I am 36 years old and am an RN and my husband is 34. Right now I am charting and using OPK's. I have made an appointment for the RE in September and I am hoping that I will be able to cancel it. I am overweight and need to shed quite a bit of weight and I know that will help my chances. I get my period regularly and have been ovulating (at least since I have been charting) so i'm hoping to see a BFP soon!
