Over 40 & TTC anyone in my boat???
Hi Everyone,
I am 44 this year and am TTC, I got married back in 2012 to my DH... We had a MC back in 2011.
I have 2 daughters for my previous married aged 20 & 16 with we love dearly.
I had been on the POP Cerazette/Cerelle for about 2 years and have hear so horror stories about not having AF etc...
Well I had been one of the lucky ones so far, I came off POP Jan 29th 2014 & O on the 13th.
Then on 15dpo AF came.
I guess I had mixed feelings as we are TTC but was still happy that we are in the game.
Anyone in the same boat?

beadghill give us the great news!!!!
karlou u officially entered the tww zone!!!! hope you get your BFP this time!!! oh and ckat24 you are in the same zone.
Jaxxx wish u the best results!!!!
went to a new doctor today. he was the best!!!!
Finally i have a doctor with some strategy not the usual "it is your age, eggs are not fresh give it a few months and try an iff"
I ll have to DTD sunday and then monday he is going to take sample from cervix to see if there are sperms alive and my CM. (there is actually one word for it but i cannot find an english translation)
he thinks my progesterone levels need a boost and he also wants to check that my luteal phase is long enough for the egg to grow properly.
he is a gyno but specialised in female endocrinology and fertility issues.
Has anyone checked there luteal phase and blah blah blah?
kisses lovely ladies
PS is anyone trying for their first?

Hi!
Nope BFP here! Have an appointment with my RE on Monday! He is a lovely man. Will see what he says from there???? Have to be honest though, going in to see the DR always boosts my blood pressure 10 points and makes me want to cry! I'm such a baby!!! LOL Merenda good luck with your Dr appointment. I always like to go in with a plan, yes, I follow theirs, but it lets me feel a bit involved!
BabyAngelG, Ohio sounds lovely, passed though it on our way to Chicago!
Beaedhill - hope its your month!!!!
Karlou, you are the leader of the pack, set the BFP and we will all try to follow! Good luck in the tww! Am keeping my fingers x!
Love and (((((hugs)))) to all!

UPDATE
just got back. had a 16mm follie. the test showed alive and kicking sperm so we are good. I ll go back wednesday to see how big the follie is, how thick my endometrium has gotten and count my progesterone levels.
He said luteal phase and progesterone are (if that s the case) a problem that causes infertility and miscarriages but it is easily solved.
well that s about it. I feel optimistic
my best wishes and thoughts for all of us
