Well, I had my last baby 7 1/2 years ago, and back then at least anything over 35 was advanced age. I am 38

 

[Katy78]

That's not too old . When you wrote advanced age I had 45+ in my mind.
I don't consider myself too old at 40. But we agreed to try only so long so I'm going to honor that.

 

[TTC74]

I’m 43. I had a rainbow baby at 41 on Valentine’s Day.

Yep. I've officially lost my mind. Wasted a valuable frer on 8dpo w/ evening urine/a 4 hr hold.... like that would really show up anyway. Just been feeling super odd today, very crampy (much like I was when pregnant last time), slightly nauseous, vivid dreams past 3 nights. Who knows. Wanted to get a test in before going to work tonight & having my sisters bday celebration tomorrow. Was thinking if I was preggo this cycle I could tell my mom & sister on my sister's bday on the 10th, but found out she's coming home to celebrate tomorrow. Oh well. Idk what I was thinking but now I must go buy more frer's

Good luck. It's easy to waste those Frers.

After an ectopic and a standard MC, my mom had me at 37 and my sister at 42, conceived naturally.

Looks like I’m 1 DPO. I’d guess 2, but with dummy temps, FF thinks 1 DPO. 🤷*♀️ At any rate, I believe I’ve entered the TWW.

 

[AngelMomB]

On cd10 and still working on the baby dancing. I'm really stressed this cycle .. I hate being disappointed
We are doing it every day to avoid missing the egg. Anyone else on the BDing phase?

Yes me too and I’m 36 with baby of 6 months and I was classed as high risk being pregnant at 35 even though I’m fit and healthy
I didn’t mind too much as I got extra scans and extra care

AFM cd4

Here we go again hehe

Donor visiting from 18th every other day until when is needed(around 5 time I suspect) ovulation due between 24th - 26th
Again just doing one step ovulation sticks, I am attempting to temp but missed this mornings already but I only have normal thermometer so need to get bbt fast
Testing date will be October I think but am planning on hanging around here hoping for more BFPs

Ugh I hate stupid blue dye tests. 10dpo today, cd25. Work nights on weekends so on my way home this morning went by CVS to pick up another frer. All they had was a $25 pack of digitals or the CVS "early detection" which is a blue dye. Really wanted just plain frer's not rigid, so I ended up getting the blue dye store brand bc I didn't wanna go anywhere else. Last peed at 9 am then got in bed & fell asleep, planning on poas when I woke at 5pm. Well I woke up at 12:30 and HAD to pee so I debated but went ahead and used it bc my urine looked dark. One second something catches my eye irl, the next I think I'm crazy. There's a definite blue dot at the verrry bottom of the test window for some reason. Ugh I have a FRER digi in my cabinet that says it can detect up to 6 days before af. Going back to bed now and wondering if I should try it when I wake up in 4hrs, but know I should just wait!

 

[mkyerby16]

Just went back and looked again (why?) and there's definitely a faint line irl, but it's been about 25 minutes

Tried a cheapie when I got up, bfn. Gonna stop by a different store and get some real frer's on the way home in the morning and try again tomorrow. Not sure exactly when AF is due, but anytime between Tues-Thurs. Not gonna say anything to DH until I get a clearer result.
