Loobylou did you have to have a reversal or anything? My DH had to have a vasectomy reversal (5years ago) which was obviously successful as I've managed to get pregnant 3 times since! Your going to have quite a gap! The good thing is you have ready installed babysitters!

I'd not been sterilised, moonmama, just said to myself no more after my son was born

I know, the gap is quite some but I'm still young enough myself and my DH doesn't have any so would dearly love one.

 

[moonmama]

I know what you mean Loobylou, although I feel more tired physically then I did when I had babies in my twenties - I think personally that I'm a much better parent now than I used to be. I'm much more calmer and I really appreciate all those little magic moments more than I used to before. I've never been a 'bad' parent but i'm aware that I dont take anything for granted anymore. Its as if the more you have to work to have them- the more you appreciate them! xxx

 

[LoobyLou75]

I am expecting to feel more tired with no longer being as young but I have a better DH this time round so I hope it will be easier!! (Ex was a lazy git!)

 

[babythinkpink]

Hi All,

I was discussing this earlier with lady expecting no 5, her other children range from aged 15 and down like me.
We both felt more ready now and more able to be mums than we did at 21, like has been said not that i was a bad mum, just that i am better now and life experience certainly has helped that.
I am also in the right relationship, at 25 i married and had 2 children thinking it was my only chance b4 i got left on the shelf!! Its madness now when i look back! (when i think i was that close to being sterilised, i had a merina coil instead, only because it would stop my periods and sterilisation wouldn't and am so glad i did)


I am pretty tired with my 16month dd but she is by far the most demanding and has only had a few nights sleep through since birth!
I found my morning sickness was the worst last time round too, but that may be a different Daddy, not looking forward to spending 9 months with my head down the toilet!!

Time to sleep now, while dd is asleep!

Bye for now!

Sorry everyone not been on for a while.

Congratulations Fran - tha's great news

I am keeping everything crossed that AF doesn't turn up for me. I'm still playing the waiting and guessing game as this will be my first cycle so not exactly sure when she should be making an appearance.

Am trying not to get too excited have been having lots of symptoms that match the early symptoms posted on the "Big Long Thread of Early Pregnancy Symptoms" thread in TTC forum though I know that some of them can be down to your body getting used to being without hormones.

Have been rubbing my lucky buddhas belly every day just in case!

wow i was reading back we have loads so kids between us quail omg how do you cope ???

i dont really know how icope i think you just do but im more patient as ive got older and i think its harder with 2 than with 9 as they have always got someone to play with.xx

 

[scrubgrub]

My mom had 5 of us kids by the time she was 35. I remember looking at her and thinking how old she was, and now when I look at myself in the mirror, I just think, wow mom's with so many kids are amazing at such a young age.. so funny.. and you guys rock!

Just got back from the doc. The urine test said no pregnancy. As I'm flying tomorrow, they did a blood test and am calling me back tonight. They also did an u/s just to make sure nothing funny going on... said there is a cyst or the starts of an egg sac. Love that I have NO ANSWER what so ever and am now $40 poorer.

 

[nessie01]

hi guys well had my blood test pregestorone i think it was the post ov one!! so have to wait for result and then my doc will transfer info on fertilty clinic so that i can get underway lol!!!! heres hoping i wont need them and mr storky will drop of a pressie soon lol

[babythinkpink]

how is everyone today?

I am stressing about symptoms aleady, having worked out we bd 5 days b4 ov and can live for up to 5 days there is a slim possibility, I was going to get a bottle of wine tomorrow and chill the weekend, but now i am worried about that slim chance, then i wont be and will have wasted a chance to chill with a glass of wine b4 getting preggers!

Nessie,
Good luck, Lets hope mr storky deals with things and the doctor doesn't need to be helping!


Quail,
I find the more the merrier, the children do play together, and annoy each other, in equal amounts!!

[nessie01]

thanks everyone my little car is feeling sorry for itself lol.......
hay if you dont mind guys can you check out my chart below.............i did also mention this last week on chart stalkers............my post ov temps are really low and flat line.......im beginning to think tht there is no way that i cold be preggie this month cause my temps are way low!!! and last month they were definaly alot higher.....so im over the disappointment of thinking bubs for this cycle............does progesterone levels reflect your body temps after ov, jut wondering if anyone knows............i guess i will have to wait for blood test results..


oh just found this on internet not looking good!!!!!

Low Progesterone levels can be indicated by seeing temps close to, on or below coverline after ovulation through the end of a cycle. Even if ovulation was achieved, low progesterone levels make it very difficult to obtain successful conception. Low progesterone levels can be treated by seeking help from an OBGYN or RE specialist. Progesterone shots, pills, and suppositories are some of the ways Doctors may prescribe to increase this hormone. For more detailed information on Progesterone and its function please click on the the Monthly Cycle page link.





anyway thanks everyone hope you are all doing well and having lots of fun baby making!!
