Welcome to 'Trying To Conceive Over 35' - Page 79

Hi Ladies,
CD 8 today and I've been using 1st Response OPK Digital. I am anticipating a positive sometime in the next week... thank god for a clear yes or no answer. I drove myself nuts trying to see if the line was 'as dark or darker' than the test line.
As soon as we get the positive for a surge, then next day we go in for our first IUI try. We've been diagnosed with "unexplained infertility" which just means that he is fine, and I am fine and they don't know why we aren't conceiving.
How's everyone else doing? anyone else around CD8 or CD9?

Hi everyone! I'm new to this forum, actually new to anything like this. I'm 36 and ttc #1 off and on for 6 years. Just looking for some support (seems all the ppl I know have no trouble ttc) and some advice on things to do differently. I'm really starting to feel hopeless and it is not a good feeling. Thanks

Hi Mells, and welcome. I feel a little strange saying that as I'm probably the other newest person here, but I can tell you there are some really great ladies on this forum!

! And yay for 2dpo---now we just wait (drumming my fingers) I did check your chart yesterday- nice spike!

AFM- actually I didn't have an u/s scheduled...justa regular check-up with my OB Doctor. Well that was scheduled for the 11th but then we found out that dh have to go out of town on the 11th so I called doc to see if we could change the schedule. They said sure- come in now. So we all four of us piled into the car and shot over there. And then it got scary- doc couldn't find the hb. He tried and tried until we were all getting grey hairs. Finally he scheduled an emergency u/s and told us hopefully the baby is just hiding behind one of your blood vessels and your hb is masking the sound. So we went for u/s. The tech was the same one who discovered my mc back in November and as soon as he saw me he got all pale and sympathetic- which didn't help. Anyway dh and I were trying not to freak out and trying to put on happy faces for our little girls. But- as soon as the tech set the wand to my belly there was a beautiful perfect little baby with a pounding 147 hb! We were soooo relieved! And (s)he was waving arms around in there like crazy

Sooo cute, and such a relief! Even the tech started to breath again, lol. Baby measures a perfect 12 weeks 1 day

So we are happy and exhausted from the stress! I am excited now, as I am officially in second tri

Wow soooo excited for you

I can't even imagine how stressful that was for you guys. So glad that everything is ok

That must have been very nice for your girls to see as well. I sure can't wait for that!! What a relief and congrats for being in your second tri

Yes glad to be in tww. Feeling fine and trying not to get overly thinking either way. I know it will happen when it's meant to happen

Hope you have a great day. now maybe you can have a little chocolate or something

I bought a dove bar with toffee chips in it. Now it's getting cold in the fridge and I am just looking at it

lol...

Also- the girls did have fun seeing the baby but when I asked my 7 year old if she thought it was cool to see her tiny sybling on tv she thought for a moment and responded "meh. I am more excited about babies being born and holding babies".

Kids.

Btw- your temps are looking aweosme!! :thumbup! Nice additional spike this morning!

How cute is that

I can see her point it would be hard to grasp just seeing the baby on the screen.I'm sure she will be a great big sister
