Doesn't always take longer just because you are older.
Keep trying and good luck
Hi,
I am 40 in 4 weeks, I have Zara who is 20 months (conceived after 13 months of trying) and am now 20 weeks pregnant and we did not try for this baby at all. I have thyroid disease so was finally given the all clear to start trying when my levels had reached acceptable levels only to find out we were already pregnant!!!
So as tyger said it does not always take longer just because we are "older".
I defo think that "trying" as such does not really help. We got pregnant with Zara the month we stopped trying and went on holiday as we were due to go for iui the next month so I stopped temping and poas and bingo it happened.
good luckxxx
