Hello Ladies. I am so, so excited to be joining you all. I’m 38 and dh is 42. We have 5 beautiful children. Our youngest just turned 2. I started feeling really broody since he was around 6 months and this very quickly became overwhelming. Dh didn’t want to have anymore children but this longing for another baby has taken me over. It’s all I think about from the moment I wake to when I go to sleep. I’ve been really struggling to let go and accept that we’re done and have tried to respect his choice. However I’ve been so down about it and have explained to him how bad this is making me feel that he has agreed that we can try one more time. I’ve literally been in tears of happiness. I’m so excited, I feel like a huge weight has been lifted from me. He admitted that he’s wanted to let me do this but he’s worried about his age and because we are pushed for space. We live in a small 3 bed house but my parents have a large 4 bed and have said that they will exchange with us in the future. I am cd14 today and ovulation can be anywhere between cd16-18 or as late as cd25. I have some left over ovulation tests from my son so I’m going to start them as of tonight and really hope I can be in with a chance this cycle. I do have pcos so it’s always taken around 12-18 months to conceive since my older 2 because I can have long anovulatory cycles. Dh wants to do this natural tho so he doesn’t really want me testing and obsessing, but because I never really know when I ovulate for sure I need to or else I’ll drive myself crazy.
Anyways that’s my back story, lol. Sorry if it’s long winded. I just can’t believe I’m now beginning this journey again. I can’t stop smiling.
Wishing all you ladies tons and tons of luck and heaps of
I’m so excited to be joining you all
