TTC after 35

Just Joined!

Greetings, everyone!  I'm new to this site, just thought I'd look for some support and women in a similar situation.  I am 35 and my DH is 27.  We got married 6/11/11 and I went off birth control 4/2012.  Thankfully, as soon as I went off BC my cycle was regular and I have been able to feel when I am ovulating.  I'm crossing my fingers that this is the month!  I think we gave it our best "shot" this month.  I'm trying not to be overly anxious and I'm not going to test until I'm officially late because I don't want to be obsessive about it.  Well, I could say more but I'll end it for now and try to get to know people on the boards.

 Best wishes to all,

Kim
