Older Mums TTC in 2015/2016

Hey ladies how's everyone doing??

Hi ladies, hope you don't mind if I join you here. I am 35 (turning 36 in November) and we are TTC #2 at the moment. Our DS was born in August last year - after a bit of a rough ride TTC him, 2 miscarriages in April and July 2014 and then finally conceived him in December 2014. After 2 miscarriages I am super-anxious about getting on the TTC rollercoaster again. I have been charting my temp since April (did this in 2014 too) and I wasn't sure I was OV'ing from the look of the charts, so I went to see my doc a couple of weeks ago and got some Day 3 blood tests done and all my hormone levels are looking ok. This is only the second month we've been trying so will see how we go. I joined a forum after my first MC in 2014 and the support helped me soooo much. Hope we can support each other here too   

I am 36 and expected TTC #1 would take ages or be difficult as my GP told me after incorrectly interpreting blood results so we went straight to FA. By the 3rd month I was pg. Have been so lucky not to have any MCs that I am aware of. I had a really scary stay in hospital overnight a month ago because my mood plummeted and my anxiety was so high. I feel bad for not liking being pg but it's ok as everyone has different experiences. All the best for ttc.

Hey Tinka and others, how are you getting on? The "waiting to TTC" thread seems very inactive so I thought I'd pop in here instead! I'm 35, 36 in September, incidentally about the time my current pill script runs out. We'll not be getting anymore, so thats exciting, but it took us 2.5 years to conceive our daughter so I won't get my hopes up too soon. How are you getting on everyone?

I am in my early 40's and TTC for 3 months. I was happy to call the fertility clinic (Repromed) for an appointment and was told 'we have had heaps of women in their 40's get pregnant recently'...that cheered me up!

I'd be very interested to hear how you get on with Repromed JW. I'm a similar age and FA won't do anything to help me besides IVF with donor eggs (which we can't afford).

Hi all!! I'm Julz. My partner and I are jumping on the TTC wagon. I have a child from my previous relationship but it has been 7 years since I have given birth and for that whole time I have been on both depo and the contraceptive pill. So I'm rather nervous as to how long it will take to get pregnant......but like cheese good things take time lol

Hi all. I'm joining too. I'm 37 (38 in January) and we are ttc our first. We've had 3 miscarriages in the last 2 years. I've had surgery for a uterine septum and we're back to trying this year. We're in month 4 now and I am secretly positive. But we all know how that can turn out! Where's everyone else at?

Just like to say hi. Im 42 and just about to start ttc my second child. I have a 6year old boy. Hopefully get my iud out next week and then we're all go. Not sure how it will go this time as I'm quite a bit older but was easy (only took 2cycles last time). My cycles are still as regular as always so let's hope nature is not against me. Am prepared that things might not work but dont want to look back in years to come and say what if?

Hows everyone going? Any updates? Would a Facebook page make it easier to chat??
