Well AF arrived unannouced this afternoon. Was a shock for me as I've always always had a warning. But hey I don't mind missing out on a couple days of cramps.

Hello Ladies,

My Story:
Me: 43
DF: 37
4 children ages, 22-18-14 and 3.

Sept. 3 family member thrown off a boat and missing.
Sept. 04, 2011 found out I was pregnant.
Sept. 7th body was found (R.I.P Terrell only 26)
Sept. 11th turned 43.
Sep 14 stated spotting.
Sept 18-19 MC'd. I was devestated. Although the pregnancy was not planned it was a nice surprise. I think I was under too much stress.
Ovulated two weeks later around Oct. 4-5.
Tested: 8 dpo BFN.. 11 dpo BFN.. 12 dpo BFN.. 13 dpo BFP...Ohh..emm.gee BFP. I'm excited and scared at the same time. My DF is a truck driver so he's away 4-5 weeks at a time. He left two days before I ovulated. Crossing my fingers this baby sticks. The only thing I did different this time is that I continued to take my Prenatal vitamins.

Praying you all get you Sticky baby dust.

JaquelineB! Congrats on your and sending your way! So sorry to hear about your family member .

JacquelineB sorry for your loss and super congratulations to you!!

I feel like AF is on it's way. My temp dropped a bit today and I felt "cold" when I woke up compared to how I've been usually but this is my first month temping and I didn't start at the beginning of the cycle. Still having nausea and sore bbs etc. and bloating and today thick white and very stretchy mucus that I would not normally so who knows but I'm expected to be out tomorrow and see another temp drop... sigh.

Claritin for my allergies and Nyquil. At first I thought it was the kind that makes your EWCM better but it wasn't.

Hmm, does anyone know if Claritin has a negative effect on CM? I always stop taking it during my TWW because it's on the we-dunno-what-effect-it-has-in-the-first-trimester list, but what about the rest of the time?

Also, good luck Milty!

My doc says during AF only bc it can dry you out.

Revisiting this...

I dropped the Claritin completely this time around and it made a HUGE difference in my ewcm quantity. I had much, much more and for longer, too.

 

[constancev18]

Yay, Suet. Congratulations!

 

[dachsundmom]

Super...I take my allergy meds during AF and then after I get my 12DPO BFN...I have found that this helps the CM issues, bit time.

 

[Milty]

congrats Suet


Super: I usually don't take it and have great EWCM so I think I'm sticking with that plan. I may take it like dmom if my allergies get bad.
I am kinda hoping that it is what caused my cycle to be so weird this month not the fact that my body is changing or getting older or something.
