Hi! hope i'm posting my question properly; I've never done this before, sorry this is kind of long!Please Cathe and others,I'd appreciate your thoughts...
I just turned 35, and my husband and I already have a 5 and 2 1/2 yr old girls. We have been trying for another child for @ 1year. I had a miscarriage last Sept, and have been again since last Nov., but no luck...
I've been hearing conflicting opinions on intense exercising-that it can possibly decrease a women's fertility...I have a period every 26 or 27 days, plus Ovul. predictor tests are positive on day 15 or 16.
Has anyone noticed a change in their menstrual cycles after moving to a more advanced regimen? I know this is an extremely personal question, but I'm really interested if you've noticed changes....I was suprised to see that i am not ovulationg mid-cycle, but actually later in my cycle. Maybe its not due to exercise, perhaps because I'm getting older (??) Not sure...Frankly, my OB/Gyn hasn't been much help on these topics...
I always had been active, but after our 2nd daughter was born, i increased the intensity of my aerobics/weight training, etc. I know there are exercisers (more advanced than me!) in this forum that have had children in their mid and late thirties +; I'd love to hear there opinions.
I do a variety of advanced aerobic workouts, 5 -6X/week for @ 75 min each time(excluding warm up and stretch time), plus weight training 4X/week @ 45-60 mins ea time.
thanks for your your input!
