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

[nessaw]

Thats good news moni. We did something similar-agreed on certain occasions etc. Tho we had lots of booze left over from our housewarming party which made it a bit harder! Good luck with the hsg.

Was it on this thread that people were recommending a supplement to help boost DH's sperm count? I think it's time to get it and I can't remember what it was!

Funny I just decided to pop in here & saw this. Yes a bunch of us had DH's take Wellman Conception Perhaps Amazon has it (mine was shipped from UK but took a bit...)

GL!

Ness!

I'd love to join in if this thread is still active?! I plan on reading through most of the posts....but there's quite a LOT of them.

This is a great idea for a thread as I see lots of ladies ttc number 2,3,4,... 12 etc and lots of threads for younger ladies...which isn't really where I fit in. I still visit the other forums...even the TWW...yes, I'm somewhat of a sucker for punishment......but it's difficult because there's a lot of twentysomethings.

Good luck ladies.

Hi, Tammy and welcome!

I know what you mean. All those ladies in the prime of fertility who fall pregnant after just a few months make me so frustrated. Especially when they already have kids. I'm still working my butt off for just one!! I started a thread for "Trying for 1st 40+" because that's my age bracket, and it's nice to talk to other ladies in the same situation as me. Our threads are not bogged down with talk of toddler's birthday parties and wishes for that 4th child that just make the rest of us feel bad.

Hi tammy. Nice to see you here. Hi kat-hows it going?

 

[moni77]

Hi ladies ~

So met with the fertility specialist yesterday - I am starting clomid tonight with my first IUI next week! Kind of scared and excited at the same time. I'll keep you posted.

 

[nessaw]

Good luck moni. Is this ur first time on clomid?

 

[moni77]

Good luck moni. Is this ur first time on clomid?

Yep! First time with the fertility specialist as well. The clomid went fine - a little crampy but nothing too bad. I had my sonogram today and I have 2 follicles bursting to go - one at 22 and one at 26. I am taking the trigger shot tonight and go in Thurs morning for the IUI! Trying not to get my hope up too much since I know the odds are still against us, but you know how it is...

Hi ladies, just dropping in to say hi to Ness, Kat, Juniper, Jazz and others that I remember from my time here. (Ness, especially brilliant to see your HSG was clear ) This is no longer the thread for me but I wanted to check and see how you are all going

 

[nessaw]

Hi all I know this thread has slowed down now but it was my first and only port of call when I started ttc.
So thought I'd come here and say...

Spoiler

I got a bfp today @15dpo. Am happy but cautious.

 

[tammym1974]

So happy for you. It sounds like you have had a rough road. I am always tickled pink when someone over 35 gets a BFP. It gives me hope.


Congrats. . I wish you the best of luck.

 

[Carybear]

congrats Ness... Happy and Healthy Nine months!!!!

 

[Maddy40]

Ness am for you

 

[moni77]

Congrats ness!!!

 

[nessaw]

Thanks ladies.x

 

[pbl_ge]

Congrats again, Ness! You're very brave with your ticker. (I'm too skerd. ) You have definitely more than earned this bfp!!!

 

[nessaw]

Pebs am trying to not worry about things I can't change so trying to enjoy it while I can and hope for the best. Easier said than done tho!

Good idea. We wait so long for this that it would be crazy NOT to try and enjoy every minute of it. Stress is bad for the body. Think positive thoughts.

Hello there ladies!
I am a graduate of this thread, but pop back occasionally to see how things are going.

Nessa - I am so very happy for you. I am keeping everything crossed for you and sending all the positive vibes I can your way. It's so good to see you have finally got your bfp after everything you have been through. Stick little bean!

Good luck to everyone else!
