39 and TTC

Jessica

Hello, I’m relatively new to here! I’m 39 and my husband is 32, and we are TTC. I have 3 children from my previous relationship, and he has 1 child from a previous relationship too. I’ve had no issues that I’m aware of in the past conceiving. We’ve been together almost 6 yrs, which I was on the Mirena IUD until last August 2020. We are a binational couple, so we haven’t been trying steadily this past year due to Covid. Also my husband is a transport driver, so timing can be extremely difficult with such a small window.

In the past, I’ve tried ovulation test (easy@ home) even when we weren’t together, and have hit high and peak during my cycles. I’ve recently started taking prenatal vitamins too.

This past cycle I tried advance clearblue ovulation test (first time using), and had results of 1 low day 08/15, 2 high days 08/16-08/17 and and my peak on 08/18. On the CBO test it states ovulation can occur 24-36 hrs after LH peak. We also tried preseed this cycle too, which my husband it’s a fan of (lil bit of a mood killer inserting and waiting).

Things I’m not to familiar with are: bbt/CM (CM more noticeable when I was younger). If anyone could provide suggestions that would be greatly appreciated!

We are hoping for this cycle🤞🏻or next one before I head back home!

Looking for any help or suggestions🥰
