TTC for the Over 40s

[birthdaycake]

The first thread I've ever started.

Me age 41 and TTC since mmc in June. Anyone else out there.

Ooooooh Heron. I'm holding your hand >> I due Sunday and I can already feel AF is on her way. Finger, toes, ears and eyes crossed for you

thank you X, that was a lovely hug
hugging you back

it is a terrible feeling isnt it? that feeling AF the witch is on her way...

hope not!

all crossed for you as well! AF is due tomorrow evening or fri morning...

the thing is AF signs are the same as preg signs!

Heron - just read your thread - BE STRONG GIRL - STAY AWAY FROM THE TESTS UNTIL AT LEAST SATURDAY

BE STRONG

Just been reading this thread here which makes me think that BD on days 10, 12, 14, and 16 is just not enough

Ooh xserial, just read it so maybe thats where I'm going wrong! so instead of breathing a sigh of relief on day 17 and looking forward to rest from BD, we've got to keep on at it. Oh no! Well I'm only on day 8 so looks like I've got a marathon month ahead.

Good luck Xserial and Ohjoy. Fingers crossed.

hi x, just read that thread...

so much energy required for BDing! i am not sure how we are going to increase the frequency . so much easier when one is young, free and single!

BFP!!!!!!!!!!!

very early days yet, will keep you posted!!!!
i used a early test stick (AF due today) and the line is quite dark!

CONGRATULATIONS

I think we have another thread graduate. Will you be going over to the fabulous 40 and pregnant thread?

Please can I join this thread, I am 39 ttc no3. My aim is to the pregnant by my birthday in Dec one way or the other!

Hi All.

Back from hols. Some bd'ing done, but not scientifically. Day 21 for me. Got thrush. Pee'd off. Suppose that takes my mind off day counting.

Not expecting to be pg, but it is only mth 1 of official trying.

Have I just read right. Heron AND Ohjoy have BFP's??? How fab

Here's hoping for sticky ones and that we can all join you soon

Hi hopefor3 - 'course you can join

Hi juicy, hope you had a nice holiday You do realise that Heron & Ohjoy are actually the same person

How's everyone else doing: roque, rowing, cece, gem2mum, minmooch, giggly, nancy66..................... come on guys, I can't name you all - it would take ages

Ok. Who else is on the 2ww or has had a visit from AF? Af due Sunday

Heron/Ohjoy Big Big congratulations that is fantastic news! How old is your dc, what age gap will you have?

Welcome to the thread hopefor3 and welcome back juicy

Ohh not long to go for you X lets hope herons luck rubs off. Im on day 10 but knackered already. Poor DD has chicken pox and is absolutely smothered in spots and sleeping badly so that means we sleep badly too! Going a bit stir crazy stuck at home cos she is still at the infectious stage so no one wants to see us!

Gem, I hope your dd bounces back real quick. It's awful being stuck at home isn't it.....still, you wont spend any money.

I know I'm not pg as I've no unusual symptons at all, just the usual af ones, and those never lie. Next month we're going to bd days 12, 14, 16, 18 and 20. I'm thinking of not taking my clomid tablets until after my tube is unblocked in august. This will also mean I can use my CB monitor and some of the hundreds of sticks that I have while they're still in date. But I'm still thinking about this. I'll wait for af to decide.

How are you Heron? Did you test again?
