[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 40 and we're TTC our second now. Our dd is almost 2. We've been trying longer this time and I miscarried (very early) a few months ago. My doctor cautioned that getting a staying pregnant will be harder at this age, but not to lose hope. Based on that, my only advice would be to start soon if you decide to start trying. [/quote] I feel compelled to chime in here, but just make sure you get your thyroid tested and that your tsh is under 2.5. Thyroid issues often hit women in their late 30's and can cause problems ttc, and they frequently go undiagnosed. Many labs use outdated ranges so you could be told it's "normal" when it's not. I myself wasted a couple of years when this particular problem could have been easily solved. [/quote]
