TTC after 35

Label me CFNBC.......

Well Ladies,
This is it for me. This last cycle was our last, Dh gave us till the end of the year and well my cycle started in December and it just stopped. Fortunately AF showed up during a 5 day fever induced sickness, so part of me just doesn't care. I guess at this point I am so used to AF and negative tests, eh.

SO now I will be Child Free Not By Choice. It is what it is, sadly I don't get that happy ending. I wish each of you to be holding your LO and don;t give up until you know in your heart you did everything you could.

Things I wish I done differently:
-started temping when my doula had suggested (when I started ttc)
-Not waste a year with my OB 
-had found this site sooner (that wasn't in my control)

So ladies I wish you well I will stop in on occasion, I am just not sure how frequent. 

Love to you all!
