Aussies trying to get duffered aged 20+ !!!

Hi pammy! Nice to hear from you!!! Busy day today?

 

[Maddy40]

Hey everyone - happy Father's Day! Hope by this time next year there'll be a whole lot more celebrations being have by those here

Hope you had a great day maddy

Thanks for asking. I've actually been thinking a lot & doing some soul searching about whether TTC is the right thing for me. All this emotion and turmoil is not like me at all and I don't know if I can do this for another 11 months, especially when the stats are so poor.

Anyways, I've committed to DH to try until next August but I think I need to start also considering the 'what ifs'. Like what our life will be like if TTC doesn't work for us. Not that I want to stop at this point, but I think I need to be more balanced in my thinking. Otherwise I run the risk of getting to Aug2013 without any BFP and then having a complete breakdown.

Anyways, enough of the D&M. I'm off to call DH and be a little more upbeat. I can't stand to make him sad, especially when we are apart.

Oh maddy darling xxx

I think it's so much harder when you have these long periods on your own with your thoughts which can be dangerous things! Not to say that I don't understand what you're thinking, I do. And I think it's important to prepare in some ways for the worse. But not just yet. You've only just started temping right? It will give you great insight into your cycles. And we are all here for you ten thousand percent. I desperately want to see you with a beautiful fat bfp! I'm sure its enroute xx

Ps, to maddys dh, no more trips away please, these things can be challenge enough with out absence!! (thus I fully believe I'm already bust this cycle....) xxxx

 

[Newbie32]

Night gorgeousnesses!!

Mwaaaaaaaaaaa xxxxxxxxxx

 

[Melainey]

Oh maddy I really hope that you get that BFP

I have every hope that you will get that bfp I was in the doctors surgery the other day and there was this lady was pregnant and she looked older than my mum she must have been well into her 50's and you are WAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY younger than that SO there is always a little bit of hope xx

How are you ??? x

 

[Newbie32]

Hope you get your BFP well and truly before then!!

Oh maddy. I am sorry that Ur feeling low and I have nothing to make u feel better. I am sure u have discussed this with Ur GP but would u look at clomid or something like that to give a little boost! not sure what the cost of this is in oz or weather Ur GP can prescribe it but there is still options. I know Ur probably not in the mood to hear that either
Hope chatting to Ur dh made u feel better.

Hi Kiwi

Hi Kiwi

Bad news melainey... Dublin lost to Mayo inthe football semi finals
0 16 to 0 19. Mayo and Donegal grand final! I was hoping to have better news for u!

 

[Lisasmith]

12 DPO I feel like AF is coming now so im pretty sure im out. I have 1 test left so ill leave it for IF i'm late.

I was on the pill for a grand total of 6 days during my period then OH says "I WANT ANOTHER BABY" so naturally, i instantly stopped, had a 6 day withdrawal bleed then went back to normal so i knew this month would be a long shot.

I am looking forward to a whole month of temping though!

 

[Lisasmith]

I also just realised that if i get duffed within the next 8 months i will be pregnant for my 30th... I was pregnant for my 21st too. Does that mean i get an automatic reset back to 30 once i stop breastfeeding the next baby?

 

[number2woohoo]

Maddy - hugs, honey. I understand the age thing. We also won't be trying too much longer as we're 40 and 43. I hope it happens very soon for both of us xo

 

[cossime]

Morning girls, feeling really down in the dumps today I almost feel like AF is on her way...just feeling moody and don't give a crap...

Maddy and Number2: I hope it happens for both of you as well-please don't give up just yet
Kiwi: happy holidays!
Lisa: if only we could 'pause/reset' time!! if I am pregga's next August, I too will be duffed for my 30th!! Just celebrated 'massively' for my 29th as I'm hoping 1. baby will already be here by next August and 2. or I will be pregnant!!!

Q: do I need to see a drastic drop/dip in my temperature to assume implantation? I had mild cramps last night hence not sure if they were AF related or not??? Why the f do the pregnancy and AF symptoms have to be so freaking similar?!?!? Arrrgggghhhhh!!...yep definitely hormonal - rant over...for not

 

[Maddy40]

Thanks for the support gals. It really, REALLY does wonders when you are feeling down. Especially since we haven't told anyone among our family or friends that we are TTC.

Yes Newbie I think the whole 'being alone and thinking too much' is definately affecting me.

Number 2 - yes I knew you'd understand. I think there just comes a point at which you have to draw a line in the sand and be thankful for what you have. I have 2 wonderful adopted kids and a great hubby. A BFP would be the icing on the cake, but the cake is already pretty darn good

Ginny - In August next year I'll turn 42. The Dr suggested we go into the Fertility Specialist with some clear guidelines in mind about how much $$ we can spend and how much time we want to devote to assisted conception. Since our FS hasn't had a successful live birth in anyone aged 42 or over, 42 seems a good time to stop!

Kiwi - Yes Clomid is an option but generally not hugely successful for people over 40 because of the egg deterioriation that comes with age. In any event we can't get into the Fertility Specialist here until late October
