TTC after 35

Confession...

I've been opening the pregnant > 35 thread daily, not to read posts or anything, just to remind myself that it does happen, and not everyone > 35 is automatically barren. 

:S :S :S I think hitting the year mark is taking its toll.

Re: Confession...

  • I've been reading the pregnant>35 (also 1st trimester) more lately, I DO need some proof that it CAN happen.  That board gives me some hope...I also like driving myself crazy with comparing their s/s to my own. :)

  • I confess - me too!  You're not alone it helps me believe it can happen.  I also lurk on SAIF and hope I will make it there someday :)

  • Same here...I check it daily (at least) and love to see the TTC35 graduates over there!  The "new member" posts are a double edged sword though... the ones that got pg quickly and easily give me hope that I am not as old as I think I am but they also make me want to smack people.  Life can be so unfair.

  • I lurk there all the time...wishful thinking!
