Over 30 & still trying for baby #1

[MrsDuck]

Thanks hilslo where are you in your cycle, are you testing soon?

 

[hilslo]

Still waiting for af after my mmc. 9 weeks today! It's been a long wait!

 

[MrsDuck]

No way! oh you poor thing, I assumed as you hadn't been on for a while that you were onto a new cycle. My god how long does your dr think you should wait, 9 weeks is ridiculous I'm so sorry you must be pulling your hair out by now

 

[hilslo]

I uad an erpc on Monday so suspect it may now be a couple of weeks away. Soooo frustrating. I just want to move on and start trying again.
In the meantime I will live vicariously through you ladies!

 

[MrsDuck]

Oh no sorry you needed surgery I hope you get a proper af soon so you can get back to ttc

 

[MellyH]

Oh, big squishy hugs, that sounds really awful.

 

[Buttrflyl553]

Happy Friday ladies.
Great news on scan mrsduck! Look forward to seeing the pictures.
Glad to see you back hilslo but sorry about AF. Only time we ever want her to come!

Looks like the fat lady has sung and AF is finally here based on my morning wipe. Here we go again

 

[MrsDuck]

Noooo I'm so sorry buttrfly, I hope this is your lucky cycle xx

 

[MellyH]

Booooo AF. Okay, new cycle, new day! I hope this is the one.

I just came into work and they have painted my hallway dark pink. Combined with the brown doorframes, the whole appearance is very... anatomical. Like a birth canal, to be precise.

 

[highhopes2013]

Your hallway sounds erm...interesting lol

Sorry about AF buttrfly. I'm in the TWW again. AF is due 27th. Booked a holiday yay! DH and I are off to barcelona for a few nights during half term hols.

9 weeks is a very long time to wait hislo. I had to wait about that after my mc too and it really messed with my head...thought by some miracle I might have been pregnant again!

 

[MellyH]

Barcelona!! Sounds amazing. I've never been to Spain, but I would love to go.

 

[MrsDuck]

Booooo AF. Okay, new cycle, new day! I hope this is the one.

[MrsDuck]

Barcelona sounds lovely highhopes, just what you need. I've got everything crossed for your bfp so you'll be testing while you are away?

 

[flou]

Sorry AF showed buttrfly and melly. I hope next cycle is your time.

highhopes i hope you have a good time in Barcelona. My bil lives there. Food and drink is so cheap out there compared to the UK.

I think AF will show as expected over the weekend. Had terrible back pain again and some dark brown spotting so it will probably be full blown AF in the next few days. My back pain is really getting me down. I have always had some lower back pain near and during AF. But the last 4 cycles Ive had really bad mid and upper back pain. Got a doc appt on Thursday to request to be sent back to the fertility specialist so I will mention it to my doc.

I hope everyone is having a good Friday evening.

 

[highhopes2013]

Sorry u r in pain flou good luck with the FS referral. Will this be your first time seeing the FS when u get the appointment? I went through that route a couple if years ago!

Can't wait for barcelona! AF is due while I am out there so will test when I get back if AF doesn't show up.

 

[flou]

We have had one Fs appointment. We were waiting for a referral when we got a bfp and then mc. The Fs then told us to come back in a year which i wasn't too happy about as it had taken us 19 months to get our bfp in the first place. The only tests ive had is cd21 bloods and DH had a SA which were fine. So i would like some more tests to see if there is a reason it takes us a while to conceive.

AF started yesterday. My back was killing. This AF hit me hard this month as a year ago this weekend we conceived our angel. It just feels as if my body is just kicking me when im down. I hope it doesn't take long for an appointment with the fs because after 2 and a half years i would like some answers.

highhopes have a lovely time in Barcelona. I hope the witch stays away and you get a bfp on your return.

Hi ladies - I have been away for a few days.

Mrs. Duck - great news about your scan and so happy to hear you are now relaxed and enjoying your pregnancy? Have you popped above the pubic bone yet?

HH - have so much fun in Barcelona! I was there years ago and love the city.

Buttrfly - sorry AF showed....

everyone else - I will read more tomorrow to see how you are all doing, but I hope you are well.

 

[MrsDuck]

Itsawonder, look at you nearly 8 weeks already when is your next scan?
I've got a bump starting and getting lots of pulling feeling the past couple of days so things are definitely on the move in there

The witch needs to bugger off for a while, we need some more bfp's on this thread. I'm sorry she has been turning up for you all

 

[MellyH]

Oooooh bump, how wonderful.

Do you keep taking prenatal vitamins once you're pregnant?

 

[MrsDuck]

I only took folic acid so I don't need to take them after 12 weeks, but if you are on prenatal multivitamins you can take them throughout if you want
