TTC 1st child 35+ (Please spoiler any PG news/announcements).

[Fbs]

Hi all , well just registered on this site. Been TTC for just last month , after the BF and I had a BFN in January and were surprised at how disappointed we were. AF was 2 days early this month so at least I didn't have to wait too long for the bad news. Thinking of trying Ovulation kits , also recommended were Fertility Lubricants , anyone else use this.

Anyway I am being very impatient and being 39 really don't want to wait too long now.

Welcome fbs and fly florida.

So 12 dpo on fri bfn. Haven't tested since as I could convince myself that fri's was too early but if it was bfn now thats it. So have gone from poas every day to nada. No real symptoms since fri. Had af type cramps on fri night. Was worrued cos stayed at my friends but nothing. Awful sinuses and nausea fri and sat. Today nothing. Cbfm flashing at me saying af due. Blah blah blah. Sorry for going on a bit.
Also picked up my clomid. Pills not too big so should be able to crush and eat with jam like the consultant said.

Muchos love to all.x

I hope we get good news in here soon. I could use to read some! Maybe I just feel less optimistic because I know I'm taking a break and I want to live vicariously.

I have come down with a cold and since I'm 8 DPO am in that window where I don't think I can have cold medicine. I think alcohol is ok before implantation but not after as that is when the placenta starts to develop, right? So I'm going with orange juice and hard candy only. I'm not having any symptoms so I kind of doubt I am. I've had some cramps on and off, but I also had them last month. I figure without any breast soreness I must not be. But I still don't want to take anything.

Pebble, while I'd love to not worry about it, I just don't think that's reality. I know if I'm pregnant already they will help out, but it just feels like it would be really selfish to intentionally get pregnant next month when my sister would be in need of family help.

Hi Ladies

wondering if I can join this thread.
Am currently 36 and have been TTC to for over a year now. This cycle am trying the cbfm, along with preseed and softcups. Every month is the same rollercoaster, excited to try and end up so down when it doesnt turn out to be a positive result. So this month, Im trying all the stops. Have an appt with the fertility specialist in a couple of weeks, hopefully wont need it.

good luck to you all

Hi everyone. Welcome FBS and FXforBabyB!

Well happy Monday...it's the end of summer vacation in our state today and kids go back to school tomorrow. Hopefully that means my workload will decrease as people return home from overseas travel (my job is to assist people when they go overseas and get into difficulty, have accidents, get sick etc).

I agree, we need some more good news here...anyone?

Pebble sorry I missed your messsage the other day. Yes we are cycle-buddies again. Bloody FF just moved my O date to 2 days after IUI. Grrr.

I have a confession to make. I took a test today, even though on I'm CD 4. I had the lightest shortest period that I can ever recall though. It was BFN of course, but oh well, a girl can hope.

Keziah sometimes it's just an itch that has to be scratched, I think. So long as you didn't actually expect a BFP

AFM Just had a good phone convo with the nurse from my clinic - 7dpiui bloodwork showed really good estradiol and progesterone figures (much higher than the chemical preg cycle). So hopefully I've got a nice, sticky environment this cycle.

Quick question - I woke up like normal and took my temp. It made a funny beep before the normal beeps and was 97.19 (almost to cover line). I wasn't sure what the weird beep meant so I took it again and. It was 97.57. I didn't move or anything.

Which one should I use?

I personally, would split the difference.

That's marvellous news Maddy! When's your testing date?? HUGE fingers crossed!

I would take the second one in case something went weird with the first one and it seems more likely. Although if it was me I would probably have taken it about 4 times just to check
