Naturally Pregnant at 44 (2 months short of my 45)

[jennyqpb]

Hi Ladies,

I just wanted to share with you that after 11 months of TTC, I am now 5.3 weeks pregnant. I conceived naturally using OPK and BBT. When I went to see a reproductive endocrinologist (RE), I had several tests done (FSH, E2, A1C, AMH, TSH, U/S, etc.) and my RE basically said that I should considered IVF donor egg. I walked out of the clinic feeling deflated but not defeated. As long as I have regular periods and ovulating, I knew that I could get pregers. It takes only one good egg! It helped that I stopped smoking, take prenatal vitamins with DHA religiously, and cut out the carbs, surgar, and caffeine. =)

I'll keep you all posted on my progress. Have my first doctor's appointment next week. If all goes well, baby will be due January 13, 2013. I am cautiously happy.

Hi I just joined a few minutes ago. I have 2 children aged 12 and 16. I lost baby when I was 39. I'm now 44 and can't shake the feeling that my family is not complete. I am in good health, regular periods. Had fsh and other hormones tests done and apparantly I am normal! However, I am not getting pregnant. Had a hysteroscope and 1 small fibroid was found but everything else was normal. Guess it's still possible though!
