30-somethings TTC #1 Testing and Support Thread!

HI Everyone- thanks for the support!!
Well it looks like AF arrived:cry::cry: It is so weird because I'm only on CD24 and my cycles are always either 27 or 28 days long. I've seriously never had a cycle this short in the entire time I've charted (over a year). I'm pretty sure it isn't IB because the blood is red and I've got cramps and a back ache. Booooo!
I'll wait and see if it continues on to tomorrow.
Lucky D I hope you wake up and get a BFP test!!!

Owww sorry to hear that Smureffette:hugs::hugs:
 
Hi everyone, had to work late last noght and didn't get home till gone 10pm. Ipromise to catch up later on today as I am just sneaking in to see you all when I am supposed to be working.

I have booked an appointment with the doctors 4:30 this afternoon


I will update you al when I get back.

Thank you everyone for your support xxxx
 
Hey again lovely 30-somethings...

Thanks for the fx Isi :hugs:

Springflower - glad you like the !!!'s. I can't seem to help adding them everywhere. Enjoying chilling at 1dpo xx

smurffette - so sorry love :hugs::hugs: that's weird about your short cycle! Hope you are doing ok xx maybe it will be gone tomorrow? Hoping so!

Ejay - good work on booking the doctors appointment - really hope it goes well and that you feel like you get some good support and information. Let us know how it goes :hugs:

I am heading off to bed soon...AF hasn't arrived but have had AF cramps on and off, so not holding my breath. I guess I will test tomorrow, I just really feel that AF is coming so don't want to waste an expensive test. Will see what happens when I wake up.

Thanks for all your support :hugs: hope you are all doing well at your different points in your cycle xx
 
Awww, so sorry Smurffete! I hope this cycle works better for you :hugs:

LuckyD, I am sooo waiting for you to test. I pray you get pleasantly surprised by a :bfp:. What time is it in NZ? In Lagos, it's just gone past noon on Tuesday morning.

Jamie....how's it going? I also think your Mr Bump avatar is reaaally cool :winkwink:

Hiya all. The docs appointment was a bit strange, all in all we have to keep trying for 18months before they will do anything, so far we have been trying for 9 months.

The doc was quite upbeat, even if he was a little bit wacko.

his final comment was to keep banging away - not quite the language you expect from a health professional but there you go!!

Sorry about that Ejay. My doc wouldnt do anything for me until i tried for 12 months and i was really upset. Apparantely u are supposed to try for up to 18 months until u can be diagnosed as infertile,sucks hey!! But keep trying without the doc, one of the days u will get a BFP.

Goodluck:flower:
 
How old are you Ejay? I am 35 but about 33/34 when we started trying. My DR started with me and DH immediately. I think less than 5 months of trying. I also think it depends on the DR.:hugs:
 
Aw shoot - I should have read this thread before changing my pic! I'm glad you all find mr. bump as amusing as I do. I'll switch back and forth between marge simpson and mr. bump : )

Thanks for hoping my magnetism will get me pg soon LuckyD- when I read what you wrote- I imagined one of the thousands of pg women I seem to have a knack for running in to getting me pg thru osmosis. Like maybe if their bump brushed up against me somehow an extra embryo would jump ship, purely based on my infinite longing? That would rock!
 
Hey everyone
Sorry i haven't been around for a while but have had lots on toing & froing.
It turns out my BFP turned into an angel this week. It was so 'is it or isn't it' just after it was confirmed,lost all symptoms, had more bleeding & now brown spotting. I have to wait for another scan next week but hope it will grow it's own wings before then - could do without another op.

I am so excited about you testing LuckyD - please let us know asap. Good luck to everyone for their sticky BFP.

Guess I'll stick around with you guys for that next BFP if that's ok?
 
:hugs: nupu :hugs: you sound really strong for such devastating news hon. I'd love for you to keep us posted on how you doing on this thread :hugs: I've read that the DNA in a man's sperm can cause repeated mc - have you ever heard anything about that?
 
Nupu I am so sorry:hugs: you are being amazingly strong

Thanks Rompy, am trying to stay positive.

MrsKCBrown OH and I are 31 so gues the docs don't think we are anywhere near past it. Although to me it seems like 18 months is a long time
 
Nupu sorry to hear your news- you sound like you are being amazingly strong!:hugs:
THanks everyone for the support. It is definitely AF- today I stayed home with cramps etc. wondering why my cycle is so off. I won't be in the June testing because I'm off for travel with work for two weeks- right when I should O:growlmad:
oh well, we'll get back to it after:winkwink:
 
I'll be testing on the 1st of June, if someone could add me pls.

No problems butterfly, will add you now :flower: good luck!

Glad that the Dr was upbeat Ejay - 18 months does sound like long time though! I thought 12 months was the norm? If you are not happy with this, can you see another Dr?

Love the Simpsons avatar! That's awesome. Yeah, the osmosis thing could happen! You never know. Well, you know how they say that spending a lot of time around children can increase your fertility - maybe it works like that with baby bumps as well!

Oh nupu, I am so sorry :hugs: like Jaimie said, you sound really strong. I hope you are ok. Of course stick around here with us! We are here for you, whatever happens next cycle. Hopefully it will be good news. I think all of us here will be sending you piles and pile and piles of good wishes and sticky baby dust :hugs::hugs: take care love


Thanks so much everyone for your good wishes and crossed fingers - but I tested this morning and BFN. So I am out - it was an early detection test and I am 12/13 dpo today so it definitely would have come up. I was expecting that, so while I am disappointed, I am ok. I had a good rant in my journal, and am now trying to focus on the positives. I really wish I had some different news to tell you all - but oh well. Looking forward to moving on to June with some of you! And hopefully not with those that haven't tested yet!! Good luck everyone xx
 
:hugs: to both Nupu and Lucky!!

It will happen for all of us when the time is right.

So sorry smurffette :hugs: hey, maybe a month off isn't such a bad thing - a bit of relaxation time is always good. Hope that you start feeling a bit better soon :hugs:
