Anyone 37 and TTC after a miscarriage?

[NewToAllThis]

Started spotting tonight so I'm out for another month.
On to month 8 since my miscarriage. No 2011 baby for me now.

 

[Deethehippy]

I'm so sorry
Is it definately AF? Do you usually spot first? Do you have cramps?

Big hugs if it is - you can still get a 2011 BFP hun

 

[NewToAllThis]

Yes its definitely AF, usually spot first and now its started properly.Don't usually cramp much beforehand so its normally a surprise when it starts. Never mind, onto next month.

Hi ladies, how are you all,

8dpo and counting, Been a mad week at works so its went fast for a change. Resisiting testing early this month, till af is due at least.

Been using my cbfm for the first month and its been a bit dissapointing, had high reading since day 12 and im now on day 22 and still having high reading lol..... hopefully its just getting used to me this cycle. I did have a strong opk on cd14 which is kinda normal for me. Probably haven't bd enough this month but you never know, fingers crossed.

Anyone using cbfm?

heres hoping for 2012 babies and 2011 pgs of course! Healthy happy pgs and Healthy happy babies!

fingers crossed kittychip

Im CD9 so ov could happen anytime between now and CD20 something - my BBTs seem to be levelling off to how they were before clomid and mc and Im certainly feeling more hormonal - fertility clinic in a few weeks so will ask about it

good luck everyone

Kittychip,
I am using cbfm, this is my 6th month of using it and have had no issues at all (apart from not getting pregnant!).
I have up to 5 high days and 2 peaks every month. I am currently cd7 and had my first high this morning which is kind of early this month but as didnt go to high last month til cd10.
Will have to see what happens over next couple of days. My cycles have been a little erratic since my m/c.
Wishing you lots of luck and x

I'm clueless as to when i ovulate but when i had my MC i think it was around CD20 because we only BD'ed a couple of times that month so i know!

I have been BDing since the 28th and intend to keep going until the 10th! I will catch that eggie!

Good luck to everyone

Hi Everyone,

New to this site. Used forums when I conceived my DD (9) and DS (5). Find myself in a new situation, Wanted to share and try to match up with some familiar situations. My DH and I are both 38. I have PCOS and Hypothyroid. Had my DD with metformin and my DS with Met/Chlomid/HCG/Fertility Observation Nightmare. Thought we were done with our family. Fast forward to March 7, 2011. I go to OB for routine check, find out I'm preggo! Miscarried 5 W 6 D. Now, DH and I decided we were so upset, we want 3rd. So scared with PCOS, Age, etc. Also, not thrilled about Fertility process, so we decided I would go back on Metformin and see how it goes. Won't go much past 39 (don't want birth after 40, just personal) so will add chlomid if need be in a few mos. Also still waiting for period after D&C. So that's my story in nutshell. Not really discussing with anyone, so would love some non-partisan opinions and support. Would love to take the ride again with some on-line buddy support. Anyone out there with familiar situation, thoughts, age, etc???? :

Hi ladies, Hope you are all well.

Just wanted to let you know that i got the surprise of my life on sunday and got a vvv early positive

My cbfm came up with three bars and and egg symbol which would have been cd24 and i was stressing that my ov dates were all messed up as the ic showed ov at cd14. After check opk and it going positive i thought i would check first response faint line omg then a cb digi came up 1-2 weeks.

Been to doctors yesterday and urine test showed negative so still bit unsure whats happening, fr showing bit darker and quicker today, so confused, find out on Thursday results of a blood test.

Thanks for the babydust and keep your fingers crossed this one sticks for me.

Babydust to you all xxxxxx

 

[NewToAllThis]

OMG kittychip, thats amazing. They do say that opk's can pick up the pregnancy hormone.
How many dpo are you then?
Keep us updated and thanks for the babydust x

 

[kittychip]

Thanks NewToAllThis,

Im only 12dpo and picked it up at 10dpo so mega early, im hoping thats why the docs test didnt get it yesterday. Last time i was 15dpo before i picked it up. I was so cursing the cbfm thinking my ov cycle was all messed up lol

Gonna be a long couple of days

Was worried about letting you all know but just wanted to show you that even when you think your out your not lol...... We only dtd twice this month lol just shows you.

Keeping everything crossed time 2 lol xx

Hello
Its nice to find others in the same age group as me! I just experienced a loss at 15weeks, after getting pregnant for the first time. I'm 38 and my husband and I hadn't planned on children until it happened quite accidentally. Everything was smooth sailing until my 14th week. I had a CVS my 13th week and we'll never know if that had anything to do with our loss. They do think i was battling some kind of infection and that was the reason the baby couldn't make it. I just think we'll never get 100% answer and that's the tough part. So now I'm 38 and have realized what I want so desperately is to get pregnant again. Hopefully my first period comes soon and then we'll start giving it the old college try. It is helpful to know that many women go on to have normal pregnancies, this time we are going to make sure we go to a high risk OB from the start.

I have been away from this board for quite a few months, after an early MC in October. I'm 37 and hubby's 46. He has 2 children from a previous marriage, but we would like 1 together before I turn 40.

We went without b/c for a year before speaking with a specialist. The doctor did the usual ultrasounds on me & s/a on hubby, all normal. In September I had an hsg test done - ended up getting pregnant a week after the test! Sadly, lost the pregnancy at 5 1/2 weeks. Not been able to get pregnant again, and frustratingly cannot get in to see the specialist again until May! grrr. My appointment keeps getting bumped.

I keep thinking that the pregnancy was a fluke - like the hsg test unblocked a tube for just a small window of time, and now I'm back to being 'unable to get pregnant' or something Sounds kooky, but how else can I explain it?

Nice meeting you all - I'll try to get back online a little more now

Welcome LeeC, Debih and Zimmy :0)
I am so sorry for all your losses
It's great we can all stick together here and hope for our BFP's soon.

I'm trying 'not to think about it' this month but am not doing very well!
FX for you all
