Who was it on here who recently got pregnant at the age of 38?

Pierced, yes, several of us here use artificial insemination (AI) for a variety of reasons ranging from ill health to ruined-libidos-and-erectile-dysfunction-issues-thanks-to-three-years-TTC-not-to-mention-can't-be-arsed issues. We get loads and loads of spermz inside us because our other halves are lovely and willing to masturbate, like, eight times on't trot Smile Get your 10ml syringes from t'internet or chemists.

Hi lovely ladies, I have not been on for a couple of days & I have 16 pages to catch up on. Shock Prepare yourselves for mass postings!

victoria401 · 08/03/2015 20:39

Big hugs to pierced. Me and dh have had some tough times lately so I know how you feel. We have also been ttc 2 years with problems found with dh's sperm. All I can say is be nice to each other, take time out to just find one another again. If you're having a hsg soon it'll give you a good opportunity to take that month off ttc. A month off is quite liberating :-) Good luck with your referral.

Purdey wins comment of the day for 'I do like the length' Grin

We have had an M&S cheeseboard and a pack of crackers for dinner [slattern emoticon]

Temp was back up this morning and have felt horribly queasy yesterday and today at times. Hmm, who knows!

Purplecuddlykoala14 · 08/03/2015 20:45

Purdey it was paddingtonfromperu with the Bfp at 38.

piercedprincess · 08/03/2015 20:46

Thanks once again all. And Purdey am down tut chemist to get ma syringes. Well amazon but putting on a fake northern accent on a anonymous forum amused me for a sec and god knows I need a laff. Yes, this is what my life has come to. I apologise to any northerners out there, your accent is lovely, likely much lovelier than my boring London liberal but brought up in Essex hybrid one does.

spinningirl10 · 08/03/2015 20:54

Purple, have messages youSmile

Kissing, are you on there yet?

nightandthelight · 08/03/2015 20:59

Neighbour round for dinner as his kitchen is out of order, toad in the hole and syrup sponge :) sorry to hear of your struggles pierced Flowers

kissinggiraffe · 08/03/2015 21:00

Yes spinning I'm on, getting all over excited about it too Grin

Not sure I have the mental capacity to post there and here too.......

SaladBeach · 08/03/2015 21:16

Hi, can I join? ##### 27 ttc1 cycle 4 ######
I've been reading all of your posts the last few days and you all sound like lovely, funny, slightly mad Wink people who do great stuff supporting each other. Who knew this ttc malarkey was so bloody difficult!
Just got bfn at dpo12 with FRER, am I out?

Nomio230 · 08/03/2015 21:21

Oooh, can I join the top secret FB group? I feel like the unpopular kid at school that everyone whispers about!

Spinning, I am sorry your family is going through such a tough time. I hope things get easier for you soon.

Purds, you are amazing. Things will improve for you & this will all seem like a horrible dream.

Eskimo, I really hope it is implantation pains that you are having, but I guess AF would be some kind of progress. At least then you could move on to the next cycle.

Whoever was asking about age gaps. I have one sister 3 1/2 years younger & one 9 years younger & am equally close to both of them. I honestly wouldn't worry.

spinningirl10 · 08/03/2015 21:22

I saw you were there kissing, with the fb group as well I shall end up wasting even more time online!!

spinningirl10 · 08/03/2015 21:24

Purdey, yes I saw the rise (implantation) on her chart. My rise is too early for implantation though as I'm only 6dpo.

spinningirl10 · 08/03/2015 21:25

Nomio, I'll pm youGrin

piercedprincess · 08/03/2015 21:25

Thanks nightlight and welcome saladbeach you're not too late, I just joined the bus a couple of days ago myself.Grin

PurdeyBirdie · 08/03/2015 21:39

Thanks, Purple Smile

Was it you, Heir, who complimented my tot? Thanks ever so much. I wish I could take the credit for those genes Hmm

Pierced, my accent is absolutely vile. Proper broad Lankishurrr Sad

Night, what a frigging splendid tea!

Salad, welcome and thanks for being so lovely about us I will stick my neck above the parapet and say I think a BFN with a FRER at 12dpo is bad news. Hang in there, though..Thanks

Spinning, there are definitely early implanters. I think you'll find studies that shwo some women implant as early as 5dpo, but it is rare. I'm sure 6dpo is a lot less rarererer-er.

Nomio, did I tell you I love you?

babsbunny · 08/03/2015 21:40

Hi ladies. Gees, trying to catch up!

Pierced, your post caught my eye. I hope you are ok. Please feel free to rant.

If your oh is open to couples counselling, go for it. Get a referral from your gp, which given your anxiety and oh complications should be simple enough to do.

I almost monumentally fucked up my relationship a number of years ago. I thank my universe every day that he is amazing and came to counselling with me. I can honestly say, it was the best thing we ever did. We learned so much communication skills from it and grew so much closer as a result.
I'm not saying we are perfect by far. I have terrible anxiety and depressive episodes which puts a strain on us. Ttc is certainly adding to our stress. But honestly counselling was a hugely positive experience for us.

Hope it helpsFlowers

BabyBumpHopeful · 08/03/2015 21:45

What happened to the statistics (stats)? Why are AF's removed instead of updated and why are people due early April removed from the listing??

haven't been around for a couple of days so may have missed the method behind that madness. TIA!

juneybean · 08/03/2015 21:46

There is a second tab for April?

spinningirl10 · 08/03/2015 21:49

Baby, I have no idea about the stats but maybe there's an April bus now and they've transferred them over there?

dojo123 · 08/03/2015 21:49

pierced we all need time to vent and this is the perfect platform to do it from so please share as much as you want and hopefully we can help support you through it. I agree with the other ladies, if your OH is up for couples counciling I think it would be worth it, somewhere neutral where you can both talk and a third party who can advise you. fx you feel better about things soon.

juney properly stuffed this evening. Whipped up a speedy chicken Tagine, couscous and fattoush salad followed by melon for dessert.

piercedprincess · 08/03/2015 21:49

babsbunny yeah definitely going to look into the counselling thing I think. Bit worried about letting the GP know to be honest doesn't that sort of thing stay on your record? I might sound a bit para I know but I really don't want my future bubbas being judged because of our issues.

But might look into Relate's services, see if we can go down the private route though god knows we can't bloody afford it.Sad

BabyBumpHopeful · 08/03/2015 21:50

Ah, I don't scroll all the way down so that's one answered! Thanks juney! What about the AF's? Why are they removed?

spinningirl10 · 08/03/2015 21:50

Purdey, implantation as early as 5dpo! Amazing, that's my new fact learned today Smile

spinningirl10 · 08/03/2015 21:56

No funeral arrangements yet. Cousin hasn't contacted the undertakers, it must be very hard trying to sort these things at such a young age. there is now talk of a postmortem, I guess we'll hear more tomorrow regarding this. Bitch ex gf has said she wants to see Uncle!!!!!!! And ex dw who he couldn't stand wants the life insurance papers........feel like we should be on Jeremy KyleBlush
