Question

38 and nervous about trying to conceive

Any success stories? I am 38 and ttc for the first time. Only been trying 2 mo and I know that's nothing, just wondering if anyone could share their success stories? My age makes me very nervous

Don't let your age put u of honey , u could be fitter than someone in there late 20. i got pregnant first time of trying with my fourth at 37 and then had my birthday so had her when I was 38 and now trying again at 39 and will 40 in November , but yes not easy this time round , my 1 & 2 child where very easy to conceive and 3 rd took 8 years and much heartache alone the way and then pregnant first time with 4 th when my son was 18months old so there's no way of knowing , as long as u give your body it's best chance of conceiving like eating right and not consuming things that u know wont help then yes go for it and the best bit of advice I can give u it stay relaxed as this TTC will drive u mad if u let it :) I know , , and don't forget to still have fun along the way.if u r worried then go c your doctor for any reassurance needed . Baby dust and good luck xx

Try reflexology to kick start your ovaries that's what I'm doing now I'm 43 trying for my 6th after a 12 year gap
