TTC after 35

Finally...hello!

After lurking and posting here and there, I figured it was time to officially join the group. I am 37, DH to be 40 in two weeks.  TTC since May 12. CP in June 12. Was seeing OB then and he said we were fine, that at least we knew we could "get" pregnant.  So we waited and kept trying.  Finally, I saw the light and started the down the fertility testing road. DH's SA test came back with motility and morph issues. Doc said to just test again in a month. HSG earlier this month and my left tube is blocked. RE said right tube looked good and sono showed large follicles. His words, " get busy".  We did, BFN again. Seeing RE again on 2/5 to determine next steps.  I use CBFM and CM watch to check ovulation, along with FF.  Tried temping, but I get up way to much to pee to have an accurate reading. Any suggestions on next steps after tube blockage welcomed!!!

I truly love the support on this board. It is nice to have others that understand. Thanks for having me!
