No real news over here. Just starting to temp and opk again. Seems like my body is still wonky from the mc, though.

Has anyone here gotten pregnant at 42, 43, or even older and successfully had a healthy baby?

i know people who got pregnant at 48 and got healthy babies. but it is helpful to be monitored regularly by your doc and happy and healthy 9. i am now 41 and hoping to be pregnant soon. my mom had her youngest at 42 and my husband's brothers wife had one healthy baby boy at 40 and another at 42

enjoy your pregnancy

Hi ladies! I am over the moon. Everything on schedule. According to me I am 6+3 but but I measured 6+1 which is fine with me. Seen and heard the heartbeat, 120bpm. Yay! There is a heartbeat so that is a lot further then the previous pregnancy with not even a fetal pole. I am well happy. Gotta keep seeing Mr. Shehata every 2 weeks which is reassuring but expensive... I was a bit worried about today... He seems to know what he is doing. Baby dust to all.

Hi did you mean "its a sticky bean for you lucky or happy"? Is Lucky pregnant?

 

[Happypregnant]

Hi ladies, how is everyone doing? Any happy news? I guess if there was you would have posted it. Don't give up hope if no happy news yet. I can happen, one way or another. I am starting to get happy here, approaching 8 weeks. I am starting to think this is a sticky one! I was also realizing that I am such an old lady! What have I done? Lol sleepless nights, poopy diapers, breastfeeding... (but I am smiling)

Lucky how about trying to have fun. I found out temping stressed me. How about just BD every other day and stop thinking of conceiving. Can't go wrong with doing it every other day.

I think s/he was calling you "Lucky," as in "you Lucky Duck!"

Yup, nothing to report. Glad to hear you're feeling positive!

Thanks, I'm managing not to be preoccupied by ttc lately. Even pretty comfortable with idea of not having kids.

Still want to try, just it'll be fine if it doesn't happen.

Happypregnant, I'm in London too and I'd be interested to get some information from you. Is it possible to message one another? I'm new to this forum. Thx!

Sure! No problem! you can either do it thru here publicly (I don't mind plus other ladies benefit from the info too) or private message me. Or if you want my mobile phone that is ok too.

Hi! I've been quietly reading these posts for a couple of weeks. I am starting my 4th medicated IUI cycle tonight. I have had 2 miscarriages with 2 of my IUIs and a chemical with an IVF. I started DHEA about 6 weeks ago compounded from pharmacy by a whim of talking with RE to see if it can make a difference. I hope I have been on it long enough (I know 3 months is best, but I have gotten 2 BFPs back to back without it, so here's hoping)! I have never gotten to a heartbeat and you all are giving me a ton of hope! Thanks for letting me crash in to say hello!

Hello!! It would be best if you could take DHEA for longer. Also, depending where you are in the world and with all the stuff I have learned, if you have had miscarriages and never made it to a heartbeat, I would suggest you have a full immune panel test. I have had 3 miscarriages, I could conceive easily but never went past 11 weeks. By 9 weeks there was no heart beat. I am 9 weeks now, and I am having my second scan tomorrow actually. Try and take DHEA a little longer if you can... I have read that it does make a difference and here is why... the eggs you are going to ovulate in 2 weeks from now, they would have been selected or recruited 3 months ago. So it would take them eggs 3 months for their turn to be ovulated. if you can, take it for a few more weeks!!! If you can't, fingers crossed and lots of baby dust!!!

Thank you! I am in the US, and I've already had the panel test after my 2nd miscarriage (the first was actually a chemical with my IVF) All is normal and that is why my RE says we should try a couple more IUIs: Quick history...IVF was a chemical then decided to do lap just to make sure and ther was a partial septum. IUI then miscarriage found out after panel I have PA-1 Factor, so I take a baby aspirin and then heparin if I get a BFP. Immediately did another IUI and made it to 8 weeks. I think I should have let my body rest 2-3 months. So, I did some research (later on) and asked RE about DHEA. He stated it couldn't harm and to let it be in my system at least 6 weeks before trying again. he says he has seen natural BFps after only 4 weeks and a lot of success starting with 6 weeks. Of course 3 months is ideal, but we are ready spiritually, mentally and physically. I started my stims last night! If this doesn't result in a BFP, I will continue my DHEA and try another time Thank you for yoru response and good luck with your u/s! SO happy for you after all you've been through!

Thank you MCEJ! And if it gives you all hope, I am happy to report that today I am 9 weeks pregnant! Baby has a strong heart beat, the specialist was well pleased! He told me after the appt was finished that he was a bit worried about me but he was very pleased with what he saw! I am going to start weaning off steroids in 3 weeks! Yay! According to the doctor I can relax now but I will totally relax after 12 weeks. Only 3 more weeks to go! Baby dust to everyone!!!

 

[LuckyW]

Yay, Happy! Congrats!!

Hi everyone, hope everything is going well. I am still pregnant! Almost 12 weeks. Had the harmony test a bit ago and waiting on the result. I am trying to only think positive. I got a horrible moon face! I feel horrible, I look nothing like my old self. Starting to Be weaned of them in a day or so. When the harmony test comes back OK, I would believe that DHEA and Co-enzyme have done their work. In a few days I can say I.totally made it!

thinking hard of you!! sooo happy for you.

I have my first ultrasound in two days and I`m absolutely petrified - reading your story gives me hope
