We've been together 10 years.
Have a 5 and 2 year old son.

I am 37, hubby 38.
Been together 17 years.
One beautiful son, 7 years old.
Been TTC for our second for over 3 years.
No fertility issues.

Plans for this year: lose weight (so far down 20lbs), take vitamins regularly, cut back on caffeine and sugar. Just started taking CoQ10 and Vit E for egg quality. Noticed lots of ewcm the first month! Increased my metformin too, so I think that will help with ovulation I’ve heard. FX!!!

I have been MIA for a long time. Basically I came to the realization that my time was done. My mental health was suffering and I my life was taken over and miserable by analyzing then re-analyzing then over-analyzing everything. From what I ate to how much sleep I was getting to how much time I was on my feet at work. I quit activities I love just out of fear I was overdoing things. I ended up being fine and embracing the freedom of having 2 older kids, and no further commitments.

A very good friend of mine, who is roughly same age as me, decided to try out IVF again. We go to the same clinic and she had some embryos still frozen from her 1st round of IVF (which was successful). She shared her journey with me and I felt like, if she's being this strong, I can too. So here I am again!
