    Hi from Melbourne Australia!

    I am new to this forum and it is a releif to know that I am not the only one feeling GD. I have 3 girls aged 9, 6 and 9months and I am desperate for a little boy to complete our family. I am 37 and DH is 36. We were looking at HT 2yrs ago and we even went to US on a holiday but decided to try and sway which did not work for us! I knew there was a chance I would have another girl and I did not realise I would want another child so much and if I can talk hubby into it I would definetly go HT this time.

    Welcome. Where are you looking at cycling? Did you happen to see Dr Potter from HRC when he was in Melbourne recently?

    Hi
    I'm not sure what IG means but we tried Dr Shettles method. We did meet Dr Potter in Melbourne at the seminar and he did answer all our questions. If we do decide to go ahead and have our fourth it will definitely be HT with Dr Potter at HRC and we will not be leaving it up to chance by swaying. We wanted 3 kids so if we do go for fourth I will only do it if it is 100% a boy. I don't think I can handle the disappointment of not being able to have a boy again because I know it will be our last shot.

    Thank you. Everybody is so nice on this forum. I have read other forums were people are very nasty to each other.

    Thanks to everyone's well wishes. I have managed to talk hubby into it and we are trying to work out when to make our trip to US. I am still breast feeding and will need to wait a bit longer. I am just wondering if I should have a consultation now or if I should wait until I have finished breast feeding. I am eager to get organised because I don't want to leave a big gap between my last two kids and there will be about a two year gap if we can do it by the end of this year.

    Hi & welcome. I am also from Melbourne & a Dr Potter pt.

    I was breastfeeding & asked him on this site if I could do pre testing. He suggested I only test after fully stopping BFing and having 2 cycles.

    I love BFing but am so glad I stopped as soon as he said. My HT journey took me 3 cycles to get pregnant, and time is important as we get to our late thirties.

    Best of luck to you.

    You can have your consult anytime but you'll need to wait on the pretesting like Vicky says.
