atomic told me not to take sudafed in this thread, not sure the reason why but I will do as I am told :) maybe she can shed some light on that info if she sees this?

No Sudafed for women, it's been linked to strokes. Only antihistamine.

LoveSunshine - I guess one thing to ask yourself is would you rather have another baby (or two), even if it's a boy, or do you want the best shot at a girl even if perhaps you get no child at all? I.e. is nothing better than another boy? Though I think at 37 it's not quite so dire - at 40 I wouldn't wait at all, but I would, a little, at 37. Obviously, I am not you and only you can decide that. Just something to think about. :)

Well, one month has a way of turning into two or three or four (something comes up, or people decide longer is better on diet) and some people at 37 are definitely reduced fertility and may only be making 4-6 good eggs a year. So postponing, while I think it's ok for the average 35 year old, 37, I don't think it's worth the risk. LIke I said, most people don't get pg that first month anyway. Of course that is everyone's call to make, but I choose to err on the side of conception vs. swaying.
