TTC And BFP's SUPPORT For OVER 35ers Part 4

Hi everyone. I just wanted to share - maybe its the new dr.,maybe the fact that I did not go on the progesterone for the second half of the month this time (first time in MONTHS), maybe its the support from everyone, here maybe all three - but I am in a good mood. Here it is cd 4, clomid day 2, and I have weathered the bfn and af pretty well. I feel much calmer. I realize it will happen when its time, and I will keep trying. A coworker, who also goes to my dr., just got bfp after four rounds of injectables. I am taking it as a sign. Plus, since this will be my first full month with new dr., if it happens now, I don't have to give old dr. any credit. Petty- I know. |

I'm also happy for you. I have to say that I have a wonderful dr. I am also on cd24...and waiting! I think that the only thing bugging me right now is the soreness on my boobs. The cramping has subsided. Well even if I'm out this cycle...I will keep trying!! What about you Krissy? How long have you been trying? what about you Julia? I am planning to test 8/1/08. Af due (NOT) 8/5/08. |

Hi Guys - You must both be so impatient! Every month I debate testing early, but, as you know, you just get so impatient, so it is a very short-lived debate. I have my fingers crossed, my toes crossed, and extra baby dust coming your way! MaribelsHope - I had 2 mc over the last three years, and have been trying this time almost a year. Ah, well, off to work now, and then acupuncture tonight. I have no idea what to expect, but I am kind of excited. |

Good morning, ladies. -JULIA- I'm glad you're feeling good and are in a good mood. You WILL get that bfp. We all will. All these bfns and AFs are just necessary steps along the way. At least....that's what I keep trying to tell myself, and usually I believe it and it makes me feel much better about everything. -KRISSY- I'm still sending you baby dust for this month, but if this one is a bust for you...well...we'll all be here next month, right? -MARIBELSHOPE- ugh....waiting. I'm enjoying NOT waiting this month. I really needed this break. But I'll be right back with you guys rying again next cycle. |

I'll be here for sure!!...you guys are just to wonderful and funny! You guys make the waiting period so much easier to deal with!! |

MARISBELSHOPE - Yay! I'm glad we make the waiting easier! It's a shame we can't make the GETTIN' PREGNANT thing easier for each other! Geez....when I think of all the time I obsessively used birth control, scared to death that even one drop of errant semen anywhere within a six inch radius of my naughty parts would do me in.....I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Lol. Eh....laughing's better, right? :-) |

Hello All, Nice to see a new thread started. I am on cd12. Bd'd this afternoon. Also bd'd on cd10. I will try the every other day thing. until around cd 18. My cm is on the watery side..no ewcm yet. Still taking the EPO,the B6 and the prenatals. Still haven't started baby asprin yet. I am just waiting for my referral to a specialist. My doc said not to wait any longer. The fact that I have had bloodwork,a sono and have been charting since my ectopic last September is a good thing..that way I don't have to do all those things again. I know my tubes are clear, my prolactin is not that high and my fsh is in check..my timin has been a little off but he "aren't those sperm suppose to live for a few days in there? But like I mentioned b4 the doc mentioned I should probably wean very soon in case they put me on any hormones or whatever...but then I stild her I got preggers once already while bf...then she looked at my prolactin level and said it was within range of being normal..She did say however that ithe bf for one reason or another could be the reason I have not conceived yet. I will have to weigh out the options. I am really not as obsessive about getting preggers. I will do the bd but I have a more relaxed approach these days..or atleast this cycle. I have been trying to get my mind off things. The only reminders I have are friends getting preggers all around me..then I think "oh yeah I better do the deed if I want to get preggers too." I have had some alcohol this cycle, which I haven't had in a while. I am trying to eat healthier. Other than that...just enjoying the days with my lo. I hope everyone gets their wish soon. ANyone heard from Perl? I think she should be delivering any day if I am not mistaken. All the best to everyone. xo |

Krissy68-my fingers are crossed for a bfp for you! You are patient, I probably would have taken a test by now. I start obsessing, try to talk myself out of it, but take the test too early anyways. I think I go through 3 tests a month. MaribelsHope-I think 3 of us will be testing around the same time. 3 bfp would be wonderful! Kristin72-I allowed my dh to have alcohol this cycle. I didn't the last few months bc I read that it decreases sperm viability. He was very appreciative. It's funny bc I always thought most ppl got preggers due to drinking. My friends ob actually had her drink a half glass of wine while ttc. I think it is bc she is so anxious which was probably hindering her chances. I've been craving sweet tea. I allow myself to have one when I get a bfn-a little pick me up. JuliaB-I like the new thread! thanks for starting it. |

Hey ladies I just wanted to give you a quick update. I didn't test today if you can believe that. I will be testing tomorrow per the doctors order I am to test on cd 27 & 28. The only thing that kinda have me worried is my temp have went down some more since yesterday 98.52 to 98.39 but I am still above the coverline. I will let you all know the results in the morning please say a prayer for me. I am still preparing myself as if AF is on her way. Krissy68 |

Hello! I am on cd 7, last day of clomid (yay), and my pre-iui u/s is scheduled for Monday. The good mood is still here - I had a great/terrible day at work, and it's okay. My mentor took me to lunch, and I had a Mojito, which was nice. Of course, when I returned from lunch, my lazy "I'm gonna leave early" afternoon went to pieces, and I had to work 3 extra hours. Oh, well. I went for acupuncture last night. It was not as scary as I feared, and it did not hurt at all. She put three in my stomach and put a heatlamp on top of that to help blood flow. We'll see. It was certainly relaxing. *** MaribelsHope put into words exactly what I was feeling. It really does make the waiting easier - It sure did last month. ********* Happy Day to Everyone, and lots of Baby Dust!! ********* |

P.S. Krissy68 - I REALLY admire your patience! I will definitely say a prayer for you. |

KRISTIN - It's great that you're relaxing more mentally and not getting too crazy about ttc'ing this month. Enjoy the summer with your daughter! -KRISSY- How'd it go, kiddo?-JULIA- What was the "atmosphere" like at the acupuncturist's office? Did you wear a hospital gown for the treatment, or street clothes? How often are you supposed to go back? |

JuliaB-Its wonderful just bacause we are all going through the same thing. I am pretty sure that if I was going to vent like I vent here with any particular person that I know...or family for that matter.....they will probably think that I am stupid and crazy!!! I know for a fact that I would'nt get the support and encouragement that I've been getting here from any of my family or friends. As of my update...I'm on cd 27 and 11 dpo. I started getting cramps again. At this point I'm just waiting. If I don't get af by the 5th...then I will test again. I don't want to turn into a testing maniac!! Krissy- have you tested yet? any good news?..hopefully we'll have a BFP!! Aspen/Kristen- how are you guys doing? |

Krissy- give us your update...did you test or not? |

Yikes....I'm here more desperate to know about you...than me!!...hee hee! |
