How Old Are You and How Many Months Did You TTC?

[WantingPink]

I am getting a little older (36) and I am TTC a girl. With my first two I was prego with one try. Now that I am a little older and TTC a girl (which may take longer) I was wondering if there are any women in here that are 35+ and how long it took to conceive. I hope it doesn't offend anyone that I am asking ages but I have heard that after 35 it gets more difficult to conceive... has anyone found this to be true or not true??

I conceived a girl on one try at age 36 and a half. She was an "oops" baby, so I wasn't swaying or anything. But I think if you have been able to get pregnant easily in the past, you hopefully won't have much trouble this time. Good luck with your sway!

I am in the same position as you waitingpink.....I am starting to try in June....I got pregnant on the 1st try with my boys and I hope and pray it will be the same with hopefully my girl!!!

Only 2 months at 43... that is awesome!! You are giving me hope that it won't take too long. Maybe we (meaning women trying to sway) have better luck because we are very in tune with when we ovulate?? I know when some of my friends have had trouble conceiving I will ask them if they know when they ovulate and most of them have no idea if or when they ovulate... just shooting in the dark.

I got pg first try with both my boys at age 28 and 30, it took 17 months for this baby (not swaying the whole time) and I'm now 34.

That is a long time Tulips... good for you for sticking with it!! Do you know why it took so long? I really hope you get your little girl!!

I had a complicated m/c in Nov 2009 and resultant surgery in April 2010. I think it took such a long time because of this. I had another m/c in Jan this year and I think that reset things.
