Hi ladies! I'm 36 and have been on The Bump since I was pregnant with my daughter five years ago (I started a new account when we started to TTC again). I'm mostly on the TTGP board, but we recently had a convo on there that made me realize I'm one of the oldest ladies over there (that felt really ... great....). Anyway, DH (39) and I have a DD who will be five soon. We've been TTC for about four months. I temp and chart and all the good stuff. Nice to meet you all!
Welcome! I find this a much better fit than TTGP as well.

Welcome, I am also a former poster who became active again through TTC after 35. I am newer here
but find the tone of this board is really nice, no drama
Welcome! I was also on TTGP about 5 years ago (maybe 4?). Then my husband at the time and I ended up divorcing. Now I'm remarried and back! What was your username back then?

I wish I could remember! That's why I had to open a new account. I've tried every username I could think of, but I ended up just having to start over. I was on the December 2010 board, but don't remember how active I was. I lurked tons, but I'm not sure how much I would have posted. At the time I wasn't TTGP, so I wasn't on that board. My DH (BF at the time) and I had just met and I was on the pill. It was truly a fluke that I got pregnant at all. Everyone here is so nice! Thanks for the warm welcome!
TTGP is a very informative and fun board, but it's also, well... this board is a little warmer and fuzzier.
Me- 39 (turning 40 in April), TTC for the first time ever (since Jan 2015), low ovarian reserve
Married 3/14/14 to my wonderful wife, but her sperm count is rather low
TTC with frozen donor sperm and science
7 IUIs, 7 BFNs. 2 IVF attempts, both cancelled and converted to IUI, both BFNs. Decided that my tired old ovaries are ready to retire. Next step- reciprocal IVF, using my wife's eggs, my uterus! fresh 5 day transfer (2 embryos) 4/17/17- BFP! Identical twins "due" 1/2/17 (but anticipated arrival sometime December)

@ArtlessIbex I was on the Dec 2010 board too! I'm 36 with a 4 (going on 17) year old DD. my new DH (not DDs dad) is 39 and were trying too. Weird... We're twins.

Wow, that's awesome! It's so nice to find a bunch of ladies where I'm not the weird one for trying to get pregnant.
