TTC after 35

Can I join you ladies?

Hi, my name is Missy. I'm 35 (today) and DH is 43. We wanted to wait until DD was 1 b/f we started trying again. Not sure if I'm ready for the emotional roller coaster but here we go again! Not sure of the plan (IUI, IVF etc), but we have difficulities getting and staying pregnant. And then the doctor telling me Friday that I was "advanced materal age" doesn't help either... Thanks buddy. Anyway I've been lurking for a while and decided to say hi.

    Yes big party planned. You try and keep it small...just doesn't work when you are from a big family. I'm hoping the weather warms up, since it's only 25 degrees outside today:(
