I am trying to get pregnant at 42 and I have questions

Hi there... this is the start of my baby making process.  I had surgery to open my tubes and stared on Clomid and my doctor says all systems are go!  Do I stop drinking coffee and wine right away? how many attempts does it take?? What should I be doing and not doing??????????  any help will be appreciated.  And some happy new from others would be more than welcome.

I am SO sorry for you. I m/c at 14 wks in 2001. It was hard to get past. We waited until now to try again and cannot get pregnant. Your family looks lovely and you are very blessed. I know that the confusion and sadness are there now but God bless you as you move forward.

hi Bren!

I went on ebay.ca and got about 200 hits! that's one way to get it...

They don't sell DHEA in Canada... I bought mine in the States when I was on vacation... or get someone to bring you back some...

good luck!

Hang in there Bren, one little BFN is nothing... it's the next one that counts!

oh and I strongly believe in DHEA, especially for advanced maternal age like us... I don't know if it has any medical value or substantial research to prove that it improves ovarian response but I tried for almost 3 years and took DHEA and got pregnant 2 months later... could be a fluck, I don't know, just thought I would share my experience.

good luck!
