Any *older* brides on here TTC?
I don't have any children and will be marrying for the first time. FH and I really want to try for a baby nonetheless. Anyone here thought it wouldn't happen and then succeeded?

Re: Any *older* brides on here TTC?
*raising hand* I am 33, will be 34 in June - not sure what you mean by "older" but I think as long as your getting AF there shouldn't be a problem. Maybe a higher risk factor which your DR. will talk about and keep an eye on when you do concieve.

Re: Any *older* brides on here TTC?
I'm 31 and DH is 37...is that considered "older"? I guess it depends on who's asking! ha ha

Re: Any *older* brides on here TTC?
I'll be 30 in June. Lately that feels older  Mostly because I keep reading all these things about how your fertility drops the INSTANT you turn 30.
But based on the brides here who are over 30 and pregnant (yea!!) and all of the hollywood mommies who are in their 30s and 40s getting pregnant, I've decided to ignore all the articles, stay positive and BD our little hearts out!!
I take the "If it's meant to be it will happen no matter how long you have to try or how old you are!" route.
ETA: good luck and have fun with it!!

Re: Any *older* brides on here TTC?
I am 34 will be 35 in May. I thought it may be a little more difficult but it only took us a couple months.

Re: Any *older* brides on here TTC?
I am not in this category however, I wanted to just share because my cousin was 41 when she had her first child.
She never thought she wanted kids, now she cant imagine her life without her daughter! She did have one miscarriage first but I think it had more to do with life stresses than age!
Good Luck!

Re: Any *older* brides on here TTC?
I am 41 (really old compared to everyone else). My DH is 35. We got married when I was 11 days shy of 40 and it took 7 months to get pregnant. No extra help was needed .

Re: Any *older* brides on here TTC?
I am 38 (39 in August - gulp!!) and DH will be 40 in APril. We have been using the Ovulation Predictor for 3 months now. So far no luck but I am trying to be patient -- although I do feel that time is running out on me!!
Good luck...! (Whew, I am not the oldest anymore!!! )

I'm just being nosey, I am 28 & not yet ttc, but I just wanted to say that a few of my friends were born when their mom's were 40!
You could always start early

I'm sure you have already planned ahead. But, if you are hoping to start right away. Why don't you stop taking the pill (if you are) and start taking pre-natal vitamins. If you start now your body will be "officially" ready to start trying. Best of luck!!!

Re: Any *older* brides on here TTC?
I just have to say thank you to all you guys because I just turnd 32 last week and DH will be 35 in Nov. and we are in the middle of buying a house so I know we can't even think of kids for at least another year. Now in my head I'm thinking by then I will be too old for kids. Sooooo thank you for showing me I'm not the only one and I won't be too old!!!!
