Conceiving at 35

Hi everyone. We just got married and want to try for a family. I am 35, and had an ectopic pregnancy in my early 20's. I went through a bunch of tests and everything is normal...Wanted to see how difficult/general time frame to conceive??

I was 34v when I got pregnsnt the first time. It took about 3 months of trying of and on guessing when I was ovulating (no tests) and out oddly happened the one day we got drunk for his birthday (I rarely ever drink).

The second time it only took 3 months again however the first two were just random if it happens cool but on the third month we decided to just have sex every three days. I have always been very irregular so this way no guessing game of when was the right time, we knew we had to hit it.

I was 34 when I conceived my first. Had her at 35. I am 37 now with my 2nd. Track your cycles and do the every other day method during ovulating and you should be fine.

I am 36 and ftm. I'm 9w4d. I went off my birth control in July. I had one period and then I was pregnant. I didn't keep track of anything. I was shocked when I found out because my doctors told me in high school and college that I would not get pregnant easy. I had issues starting in high school. They never figured out why. Then they found endometriosis when I was in college. Not much but it was there.

I was 35 at conception with my current pregnancy now 36 years old . I am now 36 weeks pregnant.  We tried using ovulation test for almost one year. They would clearly say I was ovulating but no luck. I decided to wait for my ovulation show (that mucusy discharge ) this worked the first time.  Note. I have a very unusual cycle.
