[quote]So actually, I'd love to learn more about the period between 35 and 40. I had my first at 34, and if we have a second we don't plan to start ttc until the end of this year, at which point I'll be 37.

Frankly, I have no good sense of what kind of effect on my fertility is likely if we waited six months, or a year, or two, at this point.

PP, start now!  It may take until the end of this year to get pregnant, and if it works before then, even better.  I am sure you have very solid reasons for waiting until the end of the year, but if you have trouble conceiving, which I sincerely hope you do not, those reasons may begin to seem very insignificant.

Well, not really. I'm not ready to be pregnant again. If we have trouble conceiving, we'll only have one child. And I'm okay with that. :)

I hadn't realized that I'd posted this in the TTC discussion/support forum, however, so I'll bow out now--but would definitely be interested in any stats about that 35-40 year period if anyone has a handy link.[/quote]
