TTC after 35

New Here!

Hey everyone! I just joined on here last week and finally got "permission to post." I was a member of Pregnancy.Org when I was pregnant back in 05' and I really enjoyed it and still keep in touch with some of the moms from my birth board. 
My hub and I started trying to conceive this month. I'm supposed to get AF on 4/22. 
 have a daughter who will be 8 in May. I seriously feel like I've never been pregnant before. I can't remember anything about what you can and can't do and all the other details that goes along with it. 
A little about me: I'm 37. My hub is turning 38 this month. Live in Northern California. Work as a Victim Advocate for the DA. Been married almost 11 years. Nervous as hell about this and feeling like I'm kinda starting all over. 
Look forward to being on here! ;)
Me: 38 ~  DH: 38 ~   DD: 8
TTC #2 since March/April 2014.

  • Welcome and good luck to you!  I think you'll find that this board is full of wonderful people who are amazingly supportive and helpful.

    Also, just wanted to say that you should take a moment to read our sticky post at the top of the board. It will help you navigate our "etiquette" on this board.

  • For those mom's that have older children ... are you not freaking out just a little?? LoL
    When I tell my DH that I'm nervous, he kind of gets offended. He doesn't get it. Life doesn't really change for them. It COMPLETELY changes for us. I guess I've just gotten too comfortable..
    Just wondering if I'm the only one feeling this way ...?

  • @TAT2MAMI i have a 17 and 9 year old and I am looking foreword to doing it all over again. But my situation is a little different. I have been babysitting for the last 5 years so I've been in baby mode for a while. I'm actually looking foreword to being able to stay home with this one if I am able to get pregnant again.

    I love controlled chaos.
