TTC after 35

It's working!

I went to see an acupuncturist for the 1st time last week.  She listened to my TTC story, looked at my calendar of AF, +OPK dates for the last 6 months and came to the conclusion that I was Ovulating too early (usually CD10) for my cycle.  I started some herbs and have seen her a total of 2 times for the ac.  Today is CD12 and I still have not gotten my +OPK but its getting closer and closer to being a positive each day.  I am so excited that whatever she is doing is working!

 Now if only dh and I can do our part of the job and get it done this month!  After 25 months of TTC I am READY for a new thing to obsess over!  :)
