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

[crysshae]

Thanks, Regina. As long as baby is okay, I'm okay with a C-section. It's good to know your sister had no issues and kept baby in until 38 weeks. Would be strange to have a C-section on my 7th child and delivering twins vaginally. Lol. The doctor checked my cervix and said it's long and closed, so that's good. She told me to drink lots of water to keep BH and contractions away.

How long have you been taking fish oil? It lightened my cycle the first few months after I started taking it.

Lol Becks. I bet you did O.

Only started on fish oil this week . Since they returned after last pg they have been light . Hope my lining thick enough !! Fish oil supposed to thicken it !

Regina it took a full 6 months for my cycles to settle after Brooklyn and they aren't as heavy as before really either, what worries me is this spotting and my lp I really must get some b6 even if I don't get anything else!! Xx

Hi Lou, sorry for your loss and welcome to our thread. You're in a good place here. Where in West Midlands are you?

These lovely ladies were here for my TTC journey after 2 losses at 17 weeks and 9 weeks. I was 43 in August and my rainbow is 13 1/2 months now.

Crystal, sounds like your being looked after. Have any of your others been sections?

Hi to everyone else.

Caitlin is gradually finding her feet. She had started doing about 3 or 4 little steps, but the last week she'd stopped bothering, but started again at the weekend. She did about 13 steps tonight.

Funny watching her though, looks like she's had about 10 pints!

 

[crysshae]

Nope. If I do need a C, this will be my first.

Lol. I bet Caitlin looks adorable doing her drunk walk.

 

[Oasis717]

I know Brooklyn holds his hands up by his head for balance lol so funny, yay for Caitlin walking!! Xxx

A good rise this morning hoping o was definitely yesterday, I changed CD 1 as it was so light it was more spotting and I've been in two minds whether to count as CD 1 or not and it couldn't be counted as proper flow plus my temp didn't nose dive til the next day making yesterday CD 15, at least that's the fourth month I've o on CD 15 xxx

Hi everyone. DH and I had a weekend to ourselves and doctor's appointment yesterday, so I haven't been on in a few days.

Purple - I'm sorry for your loss. This is a great group!

Becks - I bet today is the day. Sounds like you've definitely got it covered.
Happy late birthday to Brooklyn.

Regina - Sorry AF got you and your night out didn't work out. Sounds like you needed sleep. Maybe y'all can have a night out closer to O time when you're feeling more frisky.

Fi - How are you doing?

AFM - My doctor thinks I have placenta previa, so I have to see a specialist on the 31st for an ultrasound. Baby is doing well. Had its back to us this time so still not a good bottom shot. Doctor thinks it's a boy, but I'm not convinced yet. It doesn't look like any of the other boys' scans did, and she kept getting the umbilical cord confused for "something" last time. This time, she was more worried about the placenta, and her scan is not very clear. Maybe the specialist's ultrasound will be more clear and they'll be nice enough to double check for us.

Hi Crysshae
thank you for the welcome x
I hope you dont have placenta previa, keeping fingers crossed that your next scan is better. I had a c section and it really was ok

Hi everyone . Purple you are sooo welcome this is the best thread on bnb by far such an AMAZING group of ladies and a really lucky thread too I'm 41 ( well at least till the 4th of November lol...

I've no 1 who is now 8 months and this will be my 4th cycle ttc no2 . I've regular cycles , temp and Opk. I've also stated taking LOADS of vitamins looking forward to getting to know you along our journey I'm really excited to see those BFP roll in

Hi there thank you for the lovely welcome!
have you a little boy or little girl?

I'm guessing you did !! AF since she returned pp is really light and lasts only 2 full days then spotting for 2 days and gone . I used to have 5 days of bleeding ???? Is this ok do you think ?

my cycle PP (after I stopped BFing) was also light and short

Hi Dancareoi, thank you for the lovely welcome too!

lovely when little ones start walking! - but of course thats when all the trouble starts as they dont stay put for 2 seconds!

 

[purplelou]

Becks, sounds like you have a nice regular cycle there, yay for Oving !

also yes give clearblue a call and chase them, I would.

 

[Oasis717]

Thanks Lou and I need to find the letter lol and will give them a ring perhaps they never got my forms back? Brooklyn is much naughtier now he can reach more! If I've pulled him away from the cupboard under our fish tank once I've done it a hundred times, plus he can reach windowsills and picture frames too! Xxx

 

[purplelou]

Hope this is too huge x

 

[Oasis717]

Oh Lou what a beautiful picture, she's absolutely adorable xxx thank you for the numbers ive found out why its because they now won't let you talk about the trial on any social media sites and you have to sign a new consent form which of course they haven't sent me! Xx

 

[crysshae]

How did they find out you talked about it?

Brooklyn is handsome as ever.

Lou - Thank you. Lana is adorable!

 

[Oasis717]
