Over 35+, TTC , join here.😊😊

[Happyhappy37]

Hello everyone,

I am 37 going on 38 in December. TTC baby number 3. Came off the pill on the 1st may (2020). Previously I was on syanna press( depo).
I ovulated yesterday 😊
I only just finished my period on the 9th so didn't expect ovulation just yet. Also I am very new to using ovulation test. This is my second time using it. I am using the easy@home brand.
I have two boys ages 15 and 3years.❤️

Please join on this journey with me, so we can cheer each other up, share advice and information etc..

Good luck to all.

Hello lovely ladies. Hope all is well.
Apart from TTC , what June goals have you set , if any?

I've decided that I want to lose between 5 and 10lbs and start going to bed early( I have no bedtime routine)

I plan to do this by: trying to eat more healthy and doing more exercise. I am trying to search deep down for my exercise motivation. I probably need to join a exercise group for accountability.

Honestly ladies I would like to see my va-jj without really straining my neck. 🙈🙈🙈😂😂😂

@Loladoodle aahhh so sorry you fell over today.(i had a near miss one as well). Honestly, hope you are not in any pain from it. Enjoy your bath and wine, close eyes be somewhere sunny, probably laying on the beach, listening to the waves, take a deep breath and smile, enjoy and soak up the energy from sun, wind and sea 😊

Sending you healing energy 🙏

@happy thank you so much. You always have kind words for everyone that’s just what I needed to hear! As well as your motivational comment!!! I also want to lose 10lbs- going to spoil myself over af with choc and wine then hitting the fruit, veg and running again! I’ve put so much weight on cooking nice things over lockdown I need to snap out of it i feel disgusting. Great to have some goals, good idea 👍

@Loladoodle 😊. I wish I could run lol. I feel like an idiot when I try to run so I don't do it 😄 Going to start doing @home exercise.

@happy there’s loads of good apps to build up to 5k run, you should try them honestly I was never a runner but I did one of those apps about 6/7 years ago and I’ve been running since (not consistently enough but I can still pick it up after not doing for a while). I’m going healthy soon as af comes and goes- determined. I also have a weight loss meditation so I’ll try that as I’ve never really used it much before- might help the old mindset 👍

Oh @Loladoodle bless you. You're so right though. The universe always kicks us when we're down. Get in a hot bath and relax. Tomorrow is a new day.❤ x

@Happyhappy37 😂😂 you always make me laugh. Surely it's a given you can't really see your va-jj without stretching your neck once we hit 35 right?! That's what I keep telling myself.😬
Lucy-Wyndon Read (not sure if that's spelt correctly) has an amazing you tube channel. It's completely free and amazing exercises to do at home. I dropped a dress size last year doing it. Just type her name in to you tube and it should come up.
Couch to 5k app really good too. It's mostly fast walking to start with and you build up. X

@musiceverywhere yes migraine much better today thank you. I'm actually feeling fairly happy today, I had a good few days of feeling miserable. 😂 I've snapped out of it. X

@MrsTtobe lol I will look in the couch to 5k app.

Couch to 5k is fab! I know so many people who have used it thinking they could never be a runner and now run half marathons no problem!

@Matilda19 I'm glad you're feeling better, hope everything goes well at work. A newly decorated room is such a treat, hope you get lots of joy out of it :)

@Matilda19 I second that! You deserve a lovely new bedroom perfect for baby making 🥰

@Lynnysong how you feeling re tomo?

So I am overcoming one little hurdle at a time. Got proper fertile cm - check. Got a lovely donor that helped me out today and will help again next month - check.

So next bit is to ovulate and check it via temps. The soy should help in this. I don't usually have this much ewcm so I think that's a really good sign. Then use the progesterone cream in moderation and test when af is due. fx :)

@Lynnysong @Loladoodle thank you so much picked wall lights today yay..

Good luck and baby dust to all

5k is app were all trying too xx

@Loladoodle I met up with him today, it went really well. He's really nice and I feeling really happy to have a proper shot this cycle. :)

@Lynnysong sounds promising keep up the positivity x

@Lynnysong I am so happy for you. Really really hope you'll get a BFP this cycle. Keep ticking that check list off gurlllll 🤗
😊😊 Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏾🤞🏾

@Loladoodle @Matilda19 @MrsTtobe this couch to 5k sounds really promising.

@Lynnysong yay That’s great news!!!! 👏

I know, I'm so happy to have a chance. So so happy. It's so nice to have you guys to talk to about this. x

It’s so nice to hear about your journey. I always ask questions but please know this is not in a judgemental way I am genuinely interested and rooting for you! Hope it all goes well 🙏

So pleased you've had some positive progress @Lynnysong! Hopefully faith is restored a little? I'm still none the wiser. Still trying to convince myself I ovulated late and this could be implantation bleeding... 🙄 🤦🏼‍♀️ Determined to leave the FRER in drawer until next week. Have cheapies to play with until then, but fairly sure I'll be back in June!

That's amazing @Lynnysong so so happy for you. I want you to get pregnant almost as much as I want to get pregnant myself and ive never even met you 🙈😂
How funny were such a close little group from all over the country with all different circumstances who have all got one massive thing in common. ❤

@musiceverywhere it does sound more like implantation that period. Very strange. So was red for a day then brown then nothing? I had very similar when I got pregnant with my son on microgynon. YES I GOT PREGNANT ON THE PILL. 🙄 Oh to be young and fertile again. 🙄😂😔

@MrsTtobe I think if my cycles were regular/predictable then I'd be more excited but as I've only just had IUD out, I'm trying to remember that it's far more likely to be erratic hormones! Statistics are against me!
Yeah it's so nice to be able to share stuff with people that won't judge/criticise- especially when I've only told one friend (who is going through quite a bit and I don't want to talk about it too much to her).

@Loladoodle that's ok, I know you guys are supportive and not judgemental. I can't really talk about this stuff to people in my life so I'm really glad you're here. :)

Thank you @Matilda19 @musiceverywhere @MrsTtobe @Happyhappy37 @Loladoodle and everyone else lol. You guys rock, I hope you get your bfps really soon fx xx
