Thanks HopeN, We have been trying for 2 months but if I have been ovulating early maybe we weren't "trying" early enough (tough timing with holidays and visitors!) I am surprised that you recommend a Dr in 2 short months....due to my age? Or just to get on top of what is up???
breastfeeding and conception
January 28, 2008
Hi, I am trying to get pregnant. I have had 3 months of regular periods (28 day cycles...perfect) and before this I had 3 months of irreg cycles of 6 weeks each approx. I have a 19 month old who is still breastfeeding at night (3 times a nite both breasts) I have read that breastfeeding will prevent me from getting pregnant and I am thinking this may be the case. Is there anything other than weaning my son that I can do to increase my chances of conception? I am 38yo so I know my clock is ticking!!! Oh, I didn't have any problems getting pregnant the first time.
Hi Gerry, Iam sorry I was under the assumption you were in a hurry coz of the age factor. Usually it is recommended that 6 months of trying + 35 yrs or older, its good to see the Dr. Since you are ovulating by yourself, simple thing like timing intercourse may the do the trick. So, start using the OPKs they are real good.
Good Luck to you :)
