Dh is glad he was able to amuse. He admits the hypothesis is flawed when it comes to his younger sister, since it is clear to him (and should be to everyone else) that he is superior.:LOL

Hi all,

I'm 37 and TTC #2. We had #1 (boy) three years ago via unmedicated IUI. The dx, though unclear, was probably cervical factor. Now I don't know if that's still a problem, but of course I'm not any younger than last time. My cycles are speeding up (28.5 days down to 26). *sigh&

We've been TTC a few months now avail. I actually doubt we'll get pg w/o assistance. But we have decided against interventions and will instead probably look into adoption after a year of TTC. That just feels like the right call for us, though it makes me nervous of course. So many babies who need parents out there . . .

Best wishes to you all.

I wholeheartedly agree with this one! I had my BIGGEST baby (8 lbs. 12 oz.) at age 38 & 11 months AT HOME. And my midwife chided me through the whole pregnancy saying I was her "baby client" all the rest of her birthing clientele were all in their 40s

I guess i can join here now too. I am 36yo and ttc #7. Not very successfully yet, 6 miscarriages this year. But the next one just HAS to be the keeper pregnancy I have been waiting for!
