Hi BBbliss,
thank you for asking how I am.

I am feeling ok to a degree, a little teary now and then due to hormones i guess.. but I am also getting a lot of ligament pain or what I think is ligament pain..
I am due my anomaly scan on 15th August and cant wait..

How's you BBbliss.

Awww, it's just the hormones, but its such a magical time. I get like that too
Good luck on the 15th. It will be fine

I'm on my 2ww but I'm excited as my chart looks really good and shows a very clear O for the first time, so I know my body is getting ready... I think I'm testing early on August 5th. We are going for the clomid otherwise, I don't have a lot of time to waste I'm 44 soon

Best wishes

Hi ladies

I'm 45 and am currently expecting, apx 17 weeks. I have 3 daughters by my first marriage - they are 20, 18 and 15. My darling DH has no kids of his own.

DH and i decided to stop using contraception 4 years ago. Nothing for the first 18 months - not really TTC, just drifting along. Then i fell pregnant! Joy! But sadly then a MC at 15 weeks. We were both devastated. Utterly.

Then for a year i went into overdrive - i was taking supplements, using cups, acupuncture, charting, temping, avoiding cafine + alcohol. It put a strain on our marriage to be honest. Nothing worked. Despite cycle like clockwork.

Gave up all the TTC paraphernalia about 12 months ago. I was trying to let it go. I had been charting so long i had a very accurate idea of when i ovulated - so would try, without making a big deal of it, to DTD at roughly that time each month. Nothing else. We tried to let it go.

Then, May this year, late AF .... wondered if it was the onset of menopause BFP!

Major bleed 4 weeks ago - but baby seems happy and healthy. No more bleeding. 20 week scan coming up in 3 weeks .... hoping and praying everything is still ok.

Still suffering with morning sickness and sooooo tired by the afternoon each day but i'm not complaining!

Just wanted to tell my story in case it gives hope to ladies TTC over 40 xxxxx

Thank you Alison , I'll find out more on Monday but at my age they may not give me a lot of hope from what I've been reading. Even my FH's insurance do not treat women over 44 for infertility issues. We'll see FX it's fixable.

I'm 44 and pregnant naturally. Due March 25!

Alison, little update: I found an RE who will attempt to unblock my tubes with a fluoroscopic cannulation. If that works I should be good to go

Well I'm supposed to have it as soon as next AF ends. 2wks tops, but I confess today I started to think about IVF. I'm confident I get pregnant. My AFC was 23 on my visit. The eggs are there, but are still coming from a 44 year old body. I'm thinking if I should just have IVF and genetic screening to make sure it's all good. I'm sure you understand my fears.

What are your thoughts? I'd love input from other women my age. What would you do?

me personally would have my tubes unblocked first and try for a little one naturally, I mean I will be A month off 45 years old when this one is born. so my eggs are just as old as yours.. lol.. and all my blood tests and screening test came back low risk, my anomally scan they said it all looks good..
I have known of ppl who had done the ivf and still been high risk for downs etc and half our age.
thats just my opinion.

 

[BBbliss]

You are absolutely right. I guess I was talking out of fear. I have an uncle with Down syndrome, we are only one year apart. Now my grandmother is 85 with declining health and he is completely dependent on other people and she's no longer able to care for him. It's complicated and the entire family worries and suffers. So I understand first hand what it takes...

I decided to give nature a try. It will all work out
