Hey!!!!! I will be 40 in September and I also have a 21 year old daughter and a grandson 7 months old!!! TTC #2 with new hubby. Just had newborn Son January 5, 2017 but it took us over a year to conceive him by way of IUI fertility treatment due to hostile cervical mucus. I believe that having a bacterial infection undetected for months may have contributed but I'm not sure... also for those ladies who have ever had any type of procedure or surgery on their cervix... I was in labor for hours and wasn't dilated whatsoever. The doctor said I had scar tissue from a procedure done years ago and I never knew it.

Hi there JoyFryer777...
CONGRATS!! I see that it wasn't easy for you either huh?? But it sure was well worth it :). Unfortunately, I don't have insurance or the means of getting into a fertility treatment... it'll have to be left in the hands of major forces for me lol. I found out interesting what u said about the scar tissue and the infection... wow!! I'm really happy for you!! How is being a grandma and having a baby yourself?? I'm sure is the coolest experience. Thanks for all your wisdom :).

Hey Viking girl! My daughter is in W. Island! Can't wait to go visit her in June. When is AF due for you? I think I am ovulating today... my CM was egg white yesterday and today. We BD last night so now is the dreaded TWW. If I ovulated today my period will be due on Mothers Day!!!! Would be a great gift to get a BFP!!! Why are you so down? How many months have you been TTC? What are you using during this cycle. The only thing I used was cough medicine bc I'm sick and it also helps to thin out cervical mucus.

I can totally relate to your frustration. TTC can take its toll on us emotionally and mentally.... I'm asking myself "am I crazy" to try to have another baby so soon. My hands are full with one. And my body isn't what it was 20 years ago! To be honest, I hated being pregnant. I was absolutely miserable. My back hurt soooooo bad and I had all kind of other little bothers not including whacked out hormones. My delivery was the easiest part lol.....
