TTC after loss - over 40 - any takers? Our lucky thread - 9 rainbows and 1 BFP

[lilblossom]

After our loss we decided to try again even though before the surprise pregnancy we weren't trying at all. Didn't even realize we wanted another til it was taken away from us. Given all that I have pretty much given myself a loose time limit of a year to try. I don't want to try to far past that point if unsuccessful. I think when it's time to stop I will know and then will make arrangements to permanently prevent...have already decided that if we are successful to have the surgery after delivery as this would be our last one. Having said all that...

I feel pretty optimistic about this cycle...my chart has never had temps climb by this point rather then decline which is a definate difference. I also am not getting much of the 'symptoms' I have had in past cycle that had me convinced we finally did it.... So yeah, feeling kind of optimistic.

Gonna test in morning just because its fathers day and think it would be cool if I can tell him on that special day that we are expecting...but will only be 9 dpo so know its not likely that early. If we aren't successful this cycle I should know by mid week and will pop a cork on a bottle of wine and prepare for next cycle. I am a strong believer in God's Will and have put it in his hands.

Will keep everything crossed for you - although 9 DPO may be too soon to test, but you never know!

It`s fathers day here tomorrow as well.

I will know by next saturday if we have been successful.

Last month i thought I was PG because I was constantly going to the toilet and was so tired, I really thought they were all good signs, but not to be.

This month I am trying not to look at the symptons too much and will just see what happens.

Let us know how you get on tomorrow

Shouldn't even mention it but took my bra off when i got home and my bb's are sore...mostly left side and under arm pit.

Sounds promising.

i haven`t really got any symptons, but yesterday and today I have been getting a dull ache/pulling in my lower abdomen and my temp since I OV has been 36.5-36.6 and was 36.8 today.

My usual LP is 10 days and I FF says i am 6 DPO - but I really don`t want to sympton spot as i did that last month and was devasted then when AF got me.

Trying to be a little more relaxed this month.

Keeping everything crossed for you - It`s 7 in the morning here so I`m not expecting to here from you for a while re your test as I know you are a few hours behind us

Well i am not surprised my test was bfn...only 9 dpo on an ic. Holding on to my frer til later in the week. But my temp climbed a little more. We shall see. I didn't sleep real well so am extremely tired now. Gonna have nice cup of tea and get ready for work...Hope you ladies have nice day with the Fathers in your lives.

Hi, how do i do the link? I`ll put it on for you.

I take my temp every morning before getting out of bed - before I OV my temp was 36.1 - 36.2 - the day after FF says OV my temp was 36.4 and then was 36.5-36.6.

Sat/sun i was getting a dull ache in my lower abdomen and saturday night i did my temp and it was 35.8. was getting dull aches again yesterday and yesterday morning and this morning my temp has gone to 36.8.

I am not getting any other symptoms, although I am extremely tired, but putting that down to our hol last week.

so we`ll see what happens -- what`s happening with you?

9 DPO probably was a little early - when will you test again?

Am testing every morning now til bfp or af...which ever comes first. Using Ic's until wednesday though...had a temp dip this morning and am hoping its that famed implant dip...my chart is definatly different and very pretty so very optimistic. But if not successful this time we only have one more shot at a bfp before my due date...

Am testing the 25th Donna

 

[dancareoi]

I am either 7 or 8 DPO - FF says 8 I thought 7!!

Slight cramping over weekend and my temp dipped sat pm (i usually take am) then went back up on sunday morning.

36.1-36.2 before OV

36.5 - 36.6 after OV

36.7 - 36.8 since weekend.

Did have slight red spotting this morning, AF due Fri/Sat so not sure what that was - hoping not start of AF.

If i can hold out and AF doesn`t start, I will probably test saturday.

FX for everyone else.
