[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had secondary infertility and the one commonality among everyone I knew going through it was just the shock that it could happen to them. Most of us conceived our first child easily and never saw it coming. Yes, most people have kids easily in their mid to late 30s. Maybe it takes a few months longer than before or maybe they have a loss or two, but they end up with their second or third without needing interventions. But not everyone, and the longer you wait the higher the risk that you could be one of the unlucky ones. It's a game of chance and no lifestyle or family history can protect you from drawing the short end of the stick. [/quote] But let me add, all of that to say that 3 months at age 36 is absolutely normal, OP. Make sure you're timing ovulation correctly with OPK tests, not just a generic fertility app. I bet you'll get pregnant in the next 3 months, but if not, schedule an appointment with an RE for a basic workup and semen analysis. Even if there is an issue, almost everyone I know who DID have fertility issues ended up finding success. But 3 months is nothing and way too soon to worry. [/quote]
