I'm 38 been ttc since jan, got several faint positives last week, af is a week late so before I take the faint ones as a definite I'm waiting to do a clearblue later this week. I have lots of friends who have conceived and been older than us as well, my fear is what people will say but I guess it's our choice not there's isn't it and just to add it's been 14 yrs since I was last pregnant haha

You're not alone pattyo! I've just got a bfp on cycle 3. I'm 37 but will be 38 when dc is born. Good luck.

Congratulations littlemiss Smile

I'm 38 in 1 month today. I have a 3.5 year old chap so I'm nearly 5 years out of practice!!! I can feel 40 looming and worry about my little eggs shriveling up.

We're on cycle 3 now. it's doing my nut!

good luck,
k

Congrats Lillle miss and MarysPrayer!

I'll be 38 this year and also TTC#2. The clock is stressing me a bit but you are not alone Patty. On cycle 6 here and trying not to overthink (but generally failing!). Good luck!

Hi There

I am 38 (will be 39 this june). We are ttc since September 2012. During that time I had 2 mc (both time a got pregnant around easter).

But I know lots of women who were older. And as my consultant for infertility put it the other week. I have lots of time -women with 45 still getting pregnant. - What an idiot because I hear the clock ticking, louder and louder.

Had our DD when I was 31 without any problem conceiving her but she was 5 weeks early.

Best of luck.

Ooh I'd forgotten about posting this!

Glad I'm not alone lol.

Congrats on the BFP's littlemiss and MarysPrayer

I'm 39 in just over 2 months, this is our first cycle of trying for #2 and I'm trying desperately not to symptom spot at the mo as I'm in the TWW, I'd forgotten just how tediously long it is! I got pg with our first on the first cycle and DH thinks it'll just happen like that again, but I'm not so sure!

Nice to have your company hope honey and sleepy Grin

Unfortunately I had a mc at the weekend Sad @ 5 1/2 weeks. I'm devastated but determined to keep trying.

Can I join in. I will be 38 in July. I have been TTC #2 since September 2011 and it's been a very long 4 years.

I can only imagine the devastation MarysPrayer. Thinking of you.
