TTC after 35

Intro- TTC #2 (child mentioned)

Hello, I've decided to end my lurking and introduce myself. Hello lovely ladies. I'm 35 and DH is 36. DS is 19 months. I got pregnant with DS on first cycle. However, 4 years earlier when I was 29 we TTCed for a year with no luck then took a break for multiple reasons....then when we decided to try again 4 years later pregnant first cycle. To us DS was such a gift from God bc we had had 4 very hard years (unrelated family, job drama). For those using opks, you might be interested that for DS, I took an opk that was positive a full 3 days after we DTD....then we had no sex for like 2 weeks. So, our case proved that sperm can live multiple days before fertilization (assuming the opk was accurate).... So I don't know if this time it will be hard or easy. I'm going on my third month of TTC #2...using opks but I have long and irregular cycles. Would rather not chart ( bc I can obsess!) but may have to... AF came back in January after nursing for a year... So that's my story! Really really want a #2 if possible though so incredibly grateful just to have DS. Wouldn't mind a #3 either....but one thing at a time.
