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

[josie1234]

Looking forward to seeing the baby pics, won't be long xx

Feeling rubbish, got headaches and my throat is killing me. Feel like I have swallowed razor blades. Been waking up at 5 last couple of mornings and this morning it was 3.30 as I couldn't swallow. Maybe that's why my temperature is all over the place.

Hope everyone is ok and you all have a good weekend.

I know, especially as 2 weeks needs to be taken off, so 3 weeks and 2 days left at the most.

I don't get many kicks, mine are more rolls and wriggles .

One more growth scan at 36 weeks then they'll give me a date!

 

[josie1234]

I am so excited for the new arrivals, I can't wait, lol.

AFM - lazy day for me today, went to doctors yesterday and I have a throat infection. He gave me penicillin but daren't take it just yet just incase this may be my month. Hopefully not too long to wait one way or another. CD 31and according to FF 11 DPO.

Who else is in the 2ww at the moment???

Anyone up to anything today? Got 3 for my Buggyfit the other day so numbers are slowly building and getting some interest in my Bootcamps too so that's good. Have a good weekend xxx

 

[crysshae]

Awww! Love listening to talk about baby kicks and wiggles! Can't wait to feel that again.

Jo - I hope it's your BFP month and that you get to feeling better soon.

If FF is right this month, I'm 12 dpo today. My chart is a bit confusing since I forgot to monitor everything in the beginning of my cycle. I was just more relaxed about it I guess and busy doing other things.

Not much going on here today. Just working and then most likely house cleaning. DH will be taking his first long ride on his new motorcycle.

Hope you all enjoy your weekend!

I can't stop the tears today. I'm not sobbing, just tears are rolling down my face. Another cycle not pregnant.

Do you ever feel like your life is on hold? Like you just want to give up and move on? I'm putting so much energy into this for years now, and so many of my life choices are centered around this quest to have children.

I know, don't give up right before the miracle. We are going to try IUI now. I just don't feel like my Dr has put much thought into my case ... she seems like she's on autopilot. If the IUI does not work, I will find someone else who will look at all the data and be thoughtful about how to help.

I've just reached some kind of a breaking point. I guess that's good. Sometimes you need an earthquake to release the tension. All I know is something has to change. I cannot keep going on like this.

 

[josie1234]

Hi Kis, sorry that things are so rubbish for you at the moment, yes I know that feeling, I have felt like giving up quite a few times and I do understand how everything revolves around it and how you put things off just in case you may get pregnant.

I had short Luteal Phases and I find that taking B6 seems to be helping making them longer but still no BFP as yet. Please don't give up hope, there is always hope. If you are not happy with your doctor, would it be possible to change? I think sometimes it is good to let everything out and hopefully tomorrow will be better for you.

Sorry if I am no help but you know we are here always for you to vent to. Wishing you lots of luck and fairy dust to you hun xx

Thank you for writing back. Sometimes I feel so alone in this.

Like you said, I'm putting off so much. I just turned down a work opportunity because it involved travel. I can't get into a good fitness routine or lose weight because you're just supposed to maintain. I've busted my ass in a thankless job to buy a house and get medical insurance, when I'd rather get a graduate degree and finally find some professional fulfillment. I'm living close to family instead of moving where I feel more in my element and could find more like-minded friends. It would all be right if there were a child. But there's not, so it all seems wrong.

Sorry for the pity party. I guess sometimes you have to step back and look at your life and wallow a little before shifting perspectives.

Sorry you are having a rough time, but we all know how you feel right now. After I lost my Lo in jan last year I as desperate to be pg again and as you say it feels like everything is on hold.

We started trying again in may and each month my Af started I would cry and get upset, it would last a couple of days then I would start looking forward to be next cycle.

I finally got my bfp again in August only to lose that one too.

We true again in December and caught lucky first time .

That time I was having acupuncture once a week, taking vitamin b6 due to short LP and we only DTD every other day.

Big hugs to you, we are here for you to vent your feelings and hopefully give you the encouragement to keep going.

You will get there xx

Hello Ladies, feels like ages!!!
I have been away with no access to internet, but back home now.
How is everyone?
time is flying now.
welcome to the new ladies.
I have a lovely good news story to share, I bumped into an old friend yesterday.my friends sister had given up all hope of having a baby, so had decided to stop trying. she only then went and fell pregnant naturally at age 46!!! plus she went on to have another one after that. Guess miracles do happen...

So ladies don't give up!!!

 

[josie1234]

You are not alone Kis. We all understand and are here for you. It is ok to wallow. You have been through a lot hun.

When you have been ttc for a while you feel like it's never going to happen but this thread proves it does. Its hard not to let it control your life when its something you want so bad. I fell pregnant last year when I had loads going on and forgot about ttc. Can u believe, forgot!!!! Wish I could forget now.

All I can say is follow your heart and have the life you want and everything will fall in place. Positive Mental Attitude. My friend who is now 40 had throat cancer last year and it's made me realise that to have your health and someone to love then thats the main thing.

Thanks Lisa for starting this thread and showing us that we are not alone xx

Hi crazy did u have a nice time away?

 

[garfie]
