<3 <3 LOTS OF LOVE & BFPS <3 <3 February Testing Thread

[Clare1974]

Can I join you all please? I'm 39 and this is our 8th cycle ttc. I had a chemical last month, so taking positives from that it appears that I can still conceive ok. It has been 12 years since I was last pregnant.

This site came up so many times when I was using Dr Google that I thought I should take the plunge and join

Welcome Clare!!

Welcome Clare and Blues will Add U!!!

Fezzle it took me 6Mos to Concieve DS2 after BC When I was 30 so hopefully your body is Ready!!!
My AMH was borderline but when I got my thyroid checked my Vitamin D was way Low so I had to boost it and now I take 10,000 daily..... I didn't know it changed the AMH I wonder if mines better now!!???

It seems like every month my body gets more 'regular' so I'm hoping my GP is right and it's just getting used to not being on the pill!

I absolutely agree with ya'll on the different mindset here and I love that we can enjoy that. I've noticed that I'm more comfortable here and the SI forum than I am even in the TTCAL forum. I tend to lurk in the general TTC and every so often the TWW forums. Sometimes I'll post if I have something helpful to say but a lot of times it seems to fall on deaf ears! . I know I was a major dumbass in a lot of ways in my younger years and many times find myself wishing that the hard-won wisdoms of these older years could have somehow merged with the vim and vigor of my youth . Ah well, c'est la vie!

Welcome aboard to all of the new ladies as well as those that have found yourselves rerouted . This is a pretty thread for making many lovely BFP's so let's go February .

Future Mom, Thank you! GL to you too and lots of

Oldermom, Thank you! I was wondering if they could see anything at all from my urine since the HPT was almost white when AF arrived. And I went to see my OB on CD 6. Oh well. I think I should have trust my body. I think at 38, I'd know what's normal and not normal PMS symptoms...I hope!

Radkat, I see that you are in California. I live in the bay area. If you have Kaiser Permanente as your insurance carrier and you are over 35, your OB will refer you immediately to a fertility specialist without doing any checkup (at least that's what I was told by 2 different OBs recently). They said that because of the age factor, you have shorter window and they don't want to waste anymore time. So, hopefully, you don't have Kaiser and/or you OB is willing to conduct all the tests that can be done at the OB office instead of fertility specialist. Good luck!!

I don't have Kaiser, but I'm hoping that my OB can do the tests I need. Or that I can be referred out in a timely manner. I do have a LO, so I don't know if that will slow down the process?

Thanks for the feedback!

Just wanted to say Hey Clare, and welcome!!

SPP-I agree..Sis does such a good job at pretty testing threads. I feel bad for doing the November one. It wasn't that nice, BUT we did have a couple BFPs so I don't feel too bad. hee hee. Plus, I was super excited, too. I found some friends, and felt super comfy.

I was at the mall when the shooting occurred. I hid in a dressing room, I'm home safely now. SO SCARY!! more later&#8230;time to watch the news and get updates. I did get some cute clothes before they shut the gates and sent everyone to the back.
