Past 6-month mark...

Past 6-month mark...

Okay, we have been TTC for 7 months now, and since I'm over 35, it's time for both of us to get checked out for problems.

I'm going to my doctor's office soon, and she said she wanted to do some blood tests and would tell me what other tests I should have done when there. DH has to go have his sperm count/mobility tested also.

Are there any tests I should make sure she does? I know I should get FSH levels checked, as well as my blood for any diseases or disorders that could inhibit pregnancy. Any others?

Thank you! I wish this had gone better.

That's great that you're both having tests done, it will give you peace of mind that you've done everything you can do...
I'm 36 and feel your frustration, but it's still very possible that nothing is wrong with either of you and the timing just hasn't worked out yet.
I was TTC for 6 months before I got a BFP (I was 36 then also) but had a m/c at 10 weeks.
I've had 2 unsuccessful months of TTC since then ( very frustrating) and will be doing the same thing as you if I'm not PG in 2 more cycles.
But I still have faith, that it will fall into place for us, I wish you the same.
I hope all your tests go well, and you are blessed with a healthy PG soon.
Keep us posted on your progress

Thank you all for your replies! Going into this I knew it might take awhile for us, especially at our age. And I'm not looking forward to the tests, but if there is anything we can correct or address, we should know about it. And 7 months is not that long really, there still is a good chance.

Thanks again for your support--it helps me tremendously.

And here's some Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon for all of you!
