TTC late 30's early 40's - Page 6

CedarWood · Mar 23rd, 2010, 08:32 AM

Hi

Always hope - this was my first cycle using opk's - before I only went by cm. I read online about them and found it was best to use them twice a day but not FMU - around early afternoon and then later in eve. Thats how I caught mine.
Femara is great - like clomid but gentler on your body. I think Femara is the brand name but the drug is letrozole.

Joanne - I would TTC if I saw ewcm - sometimes people get preg quickly coming off the pill. Only thing tho take extra folic acid as the pill depletes that. I take 5 mg as a precaution. I think in some places it is by perscription only.

Trulyblessed - Hi! You are one organized TTCer!

yeah i used them twice a day, first time nothing, this month it was day 8 and took robitussin aswell to improve the ewcm lol nice mental image, sorry ladies, but will not bother using them next month, i pretty much know by the o pains i get and i had them on day 8 too

Hmmmm, good advice CW, thanks. I am taking folic acid already. I do worry though that catching before AF would poss end in MC? Just a thought. I will keep doing the opk thing and bore you all to death with the results!!

What did you find out at the hospital? Sure hope you are okay sweetie.

That i was 5 weeks but had lost it and on monday i started to lose the lot and i did have the option of having all taken away or natural so i went for the natural way less of being messed about with as i had read that if you have it taken away it messes with your cm and makes it unbalanced and then you have to wait a month or so for it to correct itself and at my age i didnt want to have to wait any longer than i have to to try again so am feeling very positive now its finished and am ready and willing to try for a few more months now all my stress has gone.

THANK YOU for all your support ladies i couldnt do this without you all xxx

inkdchick · Mar 29th, 2010, 07:50 AM

Hiya alwayshope , we had a m/c on the 14th but all seems ok and we were told that we didnt need to wait before ttc so we have just been really relaxed this month and both feel that if its going to happen then it will but we are not actively trying if that makes sense, but i have had this blinding headache today and yesterday afternoon which is driving me nuts and with the hour change have been knackered so i think thats where the headache has come from.
How are you doing ?
