Nearly 38 and Stuggling to Conceive No.3

[Mummy of Ange]

Hi Ladies,

Bit about me, im 38 next month, and we have two girls Scarlett 4 and Daisy 2. Before the girls we lost twins boys at 23+6 on Christmas Day 2010, so weve had a pretty tough time.

When we decided to have the girls I took no longer than 3 months to conceive. This time is completely different. I had the coil removed a year ago and we still haven't been successful.

We have been OPK testing for the past 6 months with no joy and its really getting to me.

Just curious how long it took you older ladies xx

It took me almost 2 years to conceive my second child at age 39. After months of trying, we realized it was a sperm issue and we conceived very quickly once dh took vitamins.

liz0012, my hubby took Fertilaid for men, Countboost, Motility Boost. Even if not dealing with a sperm issue, it can't hurt to make sure the swimmers are in tip top shape just like us women have to do for our eggs.
