[tinkerbell101]

I am not sure if I am allowed to post on this community as not actually in the PREGNANCY 35+ 'club' yet although desperately trying to conceive.... any babydust going spare please sprinkle at your wish!!!! I am looking to make new friends as only just joined the site and would love to hear from anybody 35+ trying for a baby. Thanks for your time and good luck and lots to all you lucky mums out there with your angels in your tummies - big hugs and lots of luck to all you ladies TTC. Debs x

I started using a bioidentical  progersterone cream (I think made from yams....not sure though)  and it did brings my levels back up to what my doctor referred to as "good as a twenty year old"  but alas it did nothing in the way of helping me concieve....but it started me my "baby" journey and here I am now in my 2WW holding pattern via IVF.

Hello everyone, and sending all the lovely ladies here babydust!

Beja, may I ask you what sort of fibroids you had and how large?  Thanks.  

Does anyone here use natural progesterone cream?  I've heard good things about it.

Hello ladies.  I just wanted to introduce myself.  I am 44 and we have been ttc for 4 years.  We have a beautiful 6 year old daughter concieved the "old fashioned way"  when we decided to add to our family we had trouble.  We have gone through all the levels from IUI's to IVF and I am now in a 2WW with donor eggs for this last IVF cycle.  We really want to add to our family and with that being said I am glad to have found this forum.  I find everybody really understanding and supportive,  Looking forward to getting to know you all.

I just wanted to say Welcome!! I belong to this forum but I am only 27. I find the women on this forum give much more sound advice then some of the other pregnancy forum. Plus I started with many of these women on the fertility forum and moved her with them when "graduated"!!! I love this forum, the women here are so kind and helpful!!!

Good luck to you and all the lovely ladies out there trying and a smooth boring pregnancy to all you plumpy preggo women!!!
