Late ovulation while breastfeeding and egg quality?

It's been awhile since I've been on here, but now that I'm back to ttc again I'm hoping to be on a bit more.

Brief history, ttc-ed for 3.5 years, 5 miscarriages then finally got lucky with my amazing daughter who is now 20 months. While I was trying to conceive with her I never tried with any ovulation after cycle day 22 as my fertility doc told me that there's generally some diminished quality.

So I'm now trying for number 2, still nursing my toddler, first period was last month, and now it's cycle day 26 and I have a positive ovulation test. I know the late ovulation is from breastfeeding, but does anyone know if there would be any egg quality issues? Have other moms conceived while nursing with late ovulations, and if so what was the result?

Thanks ladies!

    We ttc'd our second just after I started my period while breastfeeding our first (came at 11.5 months). My cycles were different every month, first was 36, then 30, then 26 then 28 and on the 5th month we found out we're expecting again! I didn't breastfeed as long as you (stopped at 14 months). Our first took us 2.5 years and I think it was due to stress. Expecting it to take a while again, 5 cycles was great! I guess the pressure to have just one was off. As for diminished quality, I'm not sure but since you did get a + ovulation test, just go for it! Good luck!

    When you can't get pregnant, and things look good from the outside, it can be extremely frustrating. Anyway this is a great method to get pregnant: https://tr.im/infertilitycure

    The first thing to consider is how long have you been trying. About 80% of couples will get pregnant after six months of trying, and about 90% will be pregnant after 12 months of trying to get pregnant
