TTC #1 and over 30

[luna_19]

Well my Dr said as long as I can see I'm ovulating by my temp that we shouldn't worry. Honestly I'm more concerned about his swimmers at this point. I'm sure he could have an SA done if he wanted to but he's not at that point yet...we'll head back at the start of cycle 12 which will be the 10 month mark, my Dr said that way if we still aren't successful by 1 year we can go straight to the RE without waiting anymore.

This all sounds so depressing, I should just hurry up and get my bfp so I can stop worrying!

Hi, I'm new to this forum and glad to talk to others trying as well. I will be 31 in September and we are trying for our 1st, we have been trying for 5 months now with no luck . Wish everyone else luck!

Hope its this month Luna xxx

Thanks PBL

Im doing an experiment with V temps and O temps and thats why i have two in my siggie at the moment! I reckon my V temps almost look triphasic - although way too early for that to be the case!

And no, im not addicted to temping at all :riofl:

Welcome People's! I hope you get your BFP soon!


Luna, I didnt ovulate for the first 8 months I was trying to conceive and I could tell because I never got a significant and sustained increase in my temp- so since you are seeing an increase in temp you can be sure that you are ovulating. I hope you get your BFP and avoid going to the RE, ttc ends up being so clinical.

Baking, when do ou get your results back? Also, what is being tested? I hope everything is okay.

Lou, I'm glad you are relaxing during your holiday. GL!

AFM, just waiting to ovulate. Since I'm off Clomid this month I am not sure when it will happen- but hopefully soon! If I dont get pg this month I am scheduled to start injections next month- Sometimes i feel so desperate- but am really trying not to obsess this month (the vacation helped!). My body was still adjusting to my normal time zone so I just started temping again today.

Kmae, they took the pregnancy blood work yesterday as well as gallbladder, gastro stuff, and a general panel. They just want to make sure everything is okay because I have had nausea and a loss of appetite. I'm not sure when I'll get those test results back.

Tomorrow, I am getting the first blood work from the OB, an FSH and the corresponding hormone tests. Then I have to go on day 21, I go to test my progestrone. This is the first step for us just to make sure I am ovulating. DH is having an SA done as well.

I hope you enjoyed your vacay, Kmae!!!!!

Hi all, I'd love to join! I'm 34 and working on baby #1, in our 4th cycle. Last cycle I had 4 days of positives, and then AF showed up, ugh. So, trying again. AF is due on Sunday, but we're in the middle of a cross country move, so I haven't been able to temp and not sure if timing was great this time around.
Good luck, all!!

 

[bubbles82]

I think this might be my new favourite thread, so friendly!

I'm CD9 of around 35 and so still have another couple of weeks til O and nothing much to report, although I did have a dream last night I got my BFP! I will try and resist the urge to test seeing as I haven't even ovulated yet!

 

[Veganlily]

Welcome curlyq and peoples!

Keep the updates rolling in ladies-it's been great to read about what everyone is up to. My wait to o could be a while longer-no creamy or Ewcm so I don't think it will be anytime soon. I do prefer the wait to o to the wait for though I gotta say. No spotting signs that probably aren't signs and trying to talk myself out of them etc....I'm on cycle #4 of actively ttc and we are more than ready for a and a May baby!

Newbie-thanks for explaining your two charts, I was pretty confused. They look awesome so far - fx'ed for you!

Baking-keep us posted...

Luna and kmae-hope we all ovulate properly very soon-fx'ed that we all get our good news before going to specialists, etc...hang in there and keep the updates coming-I really feel comforted knowing what y'all are up to.

Who is next to test??

 

[Loukachu]

Hi all, am 10dpo but no testing for me as I had such a long cycle last month out of the blue this one has taken me by surprise.

Wait for O is definitely preferable to 2ww...

 

[Newbie32]

This thread is going to explode in bfps soon! Roll on may babies for everyone!!!

 

[Newbie32]

And welcome more and more new folk!! The more the merrier!!!

 

[ZeeZ]

Hey guys,

defiantely prefer the wait to O! The second part of my cycle I'm trying desperately not to get my hopes up but still paranoind of doing any thing that might hurt the baby I'm convincing myself doesn't exist.

anyway just checked into the place we'll be staying. I was like a little kid on the way here because I saw snow which I don't really get in my area. Ashamed that I'm 32 and it's my first time but hoping that this month is full of new and good things - dare I even hope for a bfp?

Baby dust to all my ladies!

 

[SloanPet77]

Pleased to hear that Baking!!! I hope you get some answers soon tho hun xx

And wow at all the activity!!! I had a busy day/night yesterday and didnt get a chance to properly drop past!

Hello to all the new ladies to this thread! You will love it here!

What stages are you at with your cycles?

7dpo for me and not a lot going on!

Hey there!

I am on cycle 2 ttc, this is CD 4 for me!

 

[SloanPet77]

hahaha Bubbles! Test before O? Yeah i hope not silly! You are ahead of me but have a much longer cycle so maybe were closer than we think? I am on CD 4 today, with 29/30 day cycles.

 

[Tink80]

I'm on 8dpo now. I have fairly short cycles (25 to 26 days) so I'm expecting AF around the 13th. I'm trying to hold out testing till then but I'm antsy because I got a 3 pack of FRERs last month that I never got a chance to try out and I desperately wanna use one..for practice, ya know (yeah, right). I'm telling myself to just wait and see if AF comes but there's an evil voice in my head saying "why don't you test this weekend?". we'll see which voice wins, lol
last night i dreamt about moving into a bigger place and we were deciding which room would be for the baby. i can't get away from my hopes even in my sleep..argh!

Well you never know! I've seen so many threads on here where people are convinced a dream about a BFP or baby means they must be pregnant!

I'm hoping to O around the 22nd but could be earlier or later seeing as I'm still newly off BCP. Do you know when yours will be?

 

[ZeeZ]

Hi all,

on my 1st round of clomid and about to take my 3rd pill tonight (cd 7) and I got definate EWCM and lots of it. In fact now I'm not sure if what I previously thought was EWCM really was.

Also I haven't taken anything to help with that since everyone says I shouldn't O until at least cd 12 likely later?

We'll BD just in case but I'm confused. Any one have any ideas whats going on?

thanks

 

[luna_19]

Maybe it means you will o earlier than in previous cycles, I usually get fertile cm for about 5 days before o...either way you should get busy just in case

 

[ZeeZ]

Thanks luna - definately will follow those orders
