Over 40 ttc - Autumn baby dust for me!

Thanks all, I have a scan Monday for miscarriage investigations. I know they won't see anything but do you think I should tell them? X

Apologies I meant Wishing in my previous msg. Sorry Rose. The pain is making me delirious!

Yes that's a BFP Rose! Tentative congrats!

Presh.. Sorry to hear your iui didn't work ..wishing you luck for next time x

As for me, well I'm in bed atm with quite bad cramps only AF is 2 wks away so I'm wondering what the hell is going on! Last time I had cramp this bad was when I had an ovarian cyst. It dissipated on its own but my god it hurt!! I had to actually stop driving and get out the car doubled up in agony..pain killers wouldn't touch it. Admittedly the pain I have now is easing slightly and is on and off and around my back too like contractions. I have a lot of mucus and no bleeding or spotting. Weird!

@Presh12345 sorry IUI didn't work this time! Fingers crossed for the next one!!
@WishingonaStar77 , I think it's definite BFP! Tentative congratulations!!

Wishing that looks really promising - fingers crossed for you 🤞

Presh - so sorry it didn’t work out this time = hopefully the next cycle will be the one! Did you pay for a package of a certain number of cycles?

Ooh @Presh12345 I'm so sorry sending big hugs 🤗
@WishingonaStar77 that looks like a good sign x

@Presh12345 sorry to hear that, so disappointing for you. Is such a tough old game x

@WishingonaStar77 not to get your hopes up but if it faded surely that meant the hormones were out of system from CP and now they are stronger pregnancy ones? I know nothing about it to be fair but seems like a good sign that the line is getting darker, it's going to be a sit a wait situ though and just try to wait another 48 hours to test (at least 24.. ) everything x'ed for you xx

Faded I meant lol

@Dinah99 I had a chemical last month and this month I tested super early at 7dpo. Got the faintest line but within the next 3 days it faxed to nothing.
So as far as I was concerned it was leftover HCG or another chemical.
Now I see this at 12dpo and don't know what to think 🙄 x

Oh wishing......so happy for you.... I had this vibe that you are indeed pregnant..... congratulations and wishing you happy and healthy pregnancy

And hcg levels double every 48hours

@WishingonaStar77 looks like a strong line to me! x

Afternoon Ladies, I'm so confused.. I had previously seen no line on my test so assumed either from last month chemical or a very early chemical again.

Just because I'm obsessed I have just tested again with FRER and there is another line. Stronger line. I'm 12DPO today.
Not sure whether to trust this or not??! X

Well girls. The bloods were a big fat 0 so onwards to another cycle. Relieved to stop these progesterone tablets and suppositories and to start to feel normal again

Orchid I meant that I’d not had a proper follicular phase this month. I’d not had a risein oestrogen or an LH surge after my last period tocause me to ovulate. I’d just had 6 weeks of misery (hot flashes and dryness in places you don’t want to be dry! Eyes included). So I was hoping that the sudden lack of those horrid symptoms meant I was building up to ovulate. And yes I think I am cos got ewcm today and some ovulation pains. So glad to have my hormones back.

Thinking of you Rose, so sorry for what you're going through - it's the worst but you're not alone.

@Ameliel , it's 10 days post IUI and I think it was a remainder of HCG trigger I had p, before the actual procedure.

Oh @Rose68 , so sorry for your loss! :(
Big hugs, thinking of you.
@Russkispy , sorry for the bfn, are you sure it's negative if you had a faint line on home test? Could it just be too early? Forgive me if that's a silly question, Im not sure what cd you are as I've been away for few days...
I'm currently cd4, had a very light period, trying to boost my lining with eating lots of iron rich foods.. this is our 3rd cycle ttc and I think we need to up the efforts this time! Last cycle we only managed 4 x dtd and probably missed the window by a day...so I'm determined to get a lot of action in this time! Good luck to all of you, fingers crossed for an early Xmas BFP- present !

Oh no @Rose68 . I'm so sorry to hear this. Wise words from pp about the sofa, comfort food and tears. There are no words that I can give you but please be kind to yourself and I hope someone is there to cuddle you x

Rose68 I'm so sorry x

Thank you @CritterTamer ! My doc reckons it will be a good outcome! Well, I'm restarting DHEA tonight and will carry on with my supplements and acupuncture and reflexology. All of that is for a good cause. I'm convinced! Will keep you posted! Hope all is going well with you!

@Russkispy sorry to hear it was a BFN. I’m sure you will have success with IVF, you’ve already had such good success in the past with IUI and You’ll have a much better chance with IVF so I have high hopes it will work for you xxx

So sorry to hear that Rose68.. sending love x

Russkispy - sorry you got bfn but well done for keeping such a positive attitude. You are right, we will get there!
