I think I am the oldest member here, 45. If I'm wrong let me know.
I had a miscarriage this past May. I am mended and ready to conceive, my DH is as well.
I'm terrified and elated. I'm cautious and trigger happy. I'm scared and daring!
We, of course, are not using any BC. My husband's current insurance doesn't cover me due to my age, SUCKS! I'm looking into another that will cover me due to my blood count. I'm apprehensive. His open enrollment is the end of the year. SUCKS!
I am an adjunct Professor and just lost two of my classes. Every semester I'm loosing more and more. SUCKS! I haven't told my DH yet, I'm scared. So money is tight.
I miss being pregnant. I desire, greatly, our baby. I know our baby is coming to us, there's just so many obstacles that are in our way, temporarily. I'm STRESSED!
Deep down in my heart, I know that one good egg, that's all I need, is waiting for all the right elements to fertilize with my DH's sperm to make a bountiful, beautiful, healthy baby. Deep down I know and see our blessing. How do I get to that one perfect, good egg?
I'm just venting, as I have no one to truly vent to at present. I would love to get prego naturally. I know it can be done, but ahhh, time is not on our side.
How can our love be so strong and our biggest dream be within reach, but not touchable, holdable, huggable, kissable?
I desire my tenured position, but feel alone and scattered in the process. I'm looking for an angel to bring it's dust to our love and union and to free us from all these obstacles to bring to us our dream, desire, intent and most of all destiny.
It will happen. It has happened. I claim all that had come to our doorstep to be history, gone, distinguished into nothingness so that we can, with our pinky toe squash ALL that is negative to us, our love, union, life, family. We claim victory over all! We are victorious.
I just needed to vent just a little. Thanks :-{ :-)

Hi Samoy!
I don't think you are the oldest person in our group. Dawna is either 49 or 50 (correct me if I am wrong Dawna, LOL) and we have Missy, I think she is around your age, so no you are not the oldest.
By the way, Missy is pregnant right now, and she and her DH did it on their own.........so there us hope!!
Also, I think almost everyone (almost) has had a miscarriage, so we feel your pain there too.....unfortunatley.
Just don't give up!! We are all here for you to vent to or cry on our shoulder.....just please always remember that.

Welcome back Samoy! Glad you came back to JM! And yep, I believe Dawna is older  But we have a broad range of ages here. Come on back to the TTCAL board too, between the two boards there is a ton of support for all the issues that effect us 'older' moms.
And I'm sorry to hear about the loss of two of your classes, that does suck. And insurance-yea...well that always sucks.

Welcome back! As the other ladies said, we're all here for you to vent to. I'm so sorry about your losses, and insurance coverage is a pain. I hope the new insurance works for you and that the classes improve for you at work. ((((Hugs))))

Hi and welcome back!! We are all here for you and feel or have felt the same emotions you are going through right now. Vent away! We understand! One great thing about this board and the TTCAL board is that there is inspiration from women who have beaten the odds. It is proof that it can and will happen for the rest of us!

Dawna,
I sent you a private message. Let me know if you received it. It's my first sent message and I don't know what I'm doing.
