To those trying at age 39 plus, how are your energy levels?

Will be 39 soon and I’ve been given the serious talk by my obgyn that if I want another child I have to decide asap and try before forty.. 😒 besides all my confusion on how scared I am to try for another I’m so curious as to how everyone’s energy levels are at this age and above? Would also love to hear from those who have PMDD. ❤️

Is anyone on the fence discussing with their obgyn?

Curious as to those of us on a fence for having another, has anyone spoken to their docs about it? Just had my annual check up and of course the question came up. She asked if we were still looking into having another.. I’ll be 39 soon.. she then said most are starting having kids at 37 and my numbers look great but to be done by 40 🫠

Anyone else get this from their docs? It’s like they keep saying people are just starting at your age but yah be done. By 40.. like okay? 🫠🙈

MRI results state at the L4-5 level Facet arthropathy. At the L5-S1 level: Minimal bulge with facet arthropathy.

Hi all! I’m pretty new to this whole back pain world 🫠 started having intense back pain on my right lower side of back in march.. it would come and go and wasn’t constant but when it would come it was super painful.. I thought maybe I have sciatica? After a few months of it being on and off I decided to go see a chiropractor.. who gave me a spinal adjustment on both sides of my back… a few days later I got shingles 🙈 on the exact spot of my pain.. lower right side and lower back

I’ve since recovered from shingles it’s been over a month now.. the nerve pain was debilitating at first but so far for the past almost two weeks I haven’t had nerve pain.. it’s mostly this deep pressure I feel in my back.. kind of like there’s a ball there and I’m so very stiff .. it sucks.. and it hasn’t let up since I got shingles

Does anyone have an insight into this? Dealt with this? Am
I going to wake up one day without this heaviness in my back? After getting my mri results it kinda sank me into a realization that I possibly have arthritis in my back.. I haven’t met with my doctor yet but will soon..

Lingering back soreness/ possible inflammation

Curious to those whose shingles came on their backs, did you have any lingering back pain weeks after your shingles had already healed? I no longer have nerve pain, but when I lay down at night and even sit it feels like my
