TTC 30s/40s Club

[lioness168]

I hope everyone is going well and keeping their chins up. From my research it seems that professional couples are finding it harder to conceive these days, especially career women. The stress and demands of modem society on these these women tend to have an impact on their fertility. Where as other women do not seem to experience the same problems career women do. Lifestyle has a huge impact on your fertility.

As for myself, I had a pregnancy which didn't reach full term approx 2-3 years ago. And now I am about to see a Gynae Doctor and go through different tests to find out why it is taking us so long to conceive. I am praying that there is nothing wrong. I am hoping that my hubby and I will conceive sometime this year. As for now, we just need to rule out any possible physical problems. Is there anyone else going through or have gone through the Gynae tests?

Fingers crossed that everyone here gets their BFP!!!

Hi Ladies, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Rita and i am 35 years old. I have 3 children from a previous marriage. I have been ttc for the past two years with my current hubby but nothing yet. I am finishing my first round of clomid today and i should expect to o between 5 to 9 days after today. I am hoping this is the only cycle to use clomid. We have had so many tests done and everything seems to be in order. Hubby does have to go have another SA done as well.

Welcome to ttc. I myself just joined and am well on my way to 40! I married a younger man in hopes it would stay away longer. No do love the youngster just a bit! I like you have a child from before but we are ttc again. I preg just recently, but now my angel lives in heaven. She was 15w+5d. Just waiting for my cycle and then were off to the races.

feeling a little down ladies

you probably read my previous post ... CD 15 ... thought I was ovulating ... in fact I know I had ovulation pains. Went to the washroom and a blood clot came out (this happened about 4pm yesterday) ... although it doesn't appear to be a "flow" like the WITCH, it is bright red I have NEVER had mid-cycle bleeding or bleeding during ovulation.

I feel like something is happening to my body and it should be getting pregnant not odd things

sorry for being so gloomy but it is exactly how I feel after trying for about 5mths.

Hun don't feel bad about this - it's actually a really good sign that you've ovulated and that you're body is working properly. Ovulation spotting is an excellent sign of fertility. xxx

Hi, am 35 and OH is 39 (40 in 3 weeks although is not keen on that!). To cut a long story short, pregnant last December first month off pill, nightmare mc at 11+6 with failed medical management then ERPC, first AF after ERPC last week, so does that make me cycle 2?
Using Clearblue and non-brand ovulation tests for first month, have just ordered pre-seed as have read about miraculous results on babyandbump.
Any top tips??
