So I’m 40 I have 3 children our youngest is 13, I’ve always wanted another baby and it’s now or never I feel, this is month 4 of trying, we danced on Sunday 5th November and I ovulated 6th my past pregnancies I fell pregnant within the first month obviously now I’m older it’s not that easy. My periods are very regular, this week I’ve been extremely emotional and I feel on/off period pain my period is due on the 21st. I’ll test around them. I don’t think it’s going to be positive news again this month I can kinda “feel” my period coming. Anyway that’s my story nice to meet you all.

Hi @Mrs777 i hope you don’t mind me joining the dreaded TWW with you! I’m due on the 23rd so not far behind you!

im 32, no loving children and my MMC got the all clear on August 20th so this is my 3rd month since, I’ve experienced spotting this cycle and pinching feelings near my pubic bone so praying this is a good sign as haven’t experienced this before!

you could be experiencing implantation cramps so hold onto that and try stay positive! We’ve got this ✨

Hello 😌

Sounds promising for you 🤞🏼 my emotions have defo been very up and down this cycle which is different. Everyday I desperate to test but I’ve done that the last few months and it’s very disheartening. Hopefully this time next week we will know 💫

Hello! I am also in the TWW, 4DPO. We’ve been trying for a baby since February, had to have surgical management for a “failed pregnancy” at 11 weeks in august. So… TTC is making me a bit crazy. I have had a constant dull ache since ovulation, this month I started taking vitamin B complex as the last month I actually religiously took it I conceived!
fingers crossed for you all xx

I tested today and got a BFN which was expected Ha! I really don’t know why I do it to myself but I just feel like I need that control of knowing if you get what I mean…

do you think you’ll be able to wait till AF?

@Ems1992 ive also started folic acid and vitamin B12. I noticed from my bloods before my miscarriage that I was deficient in them both but they never followed it up as I was in surgery within 2 weeks of finding out so I’m guessing they didn’t see the need?

after months of searching online it shows B12 deficiency can cause early loss and infertility so hopefully noticing this now it will help!

so sorry to hear about your loss, it’s really awful to have to live with such sadness isn’t it!

hi 👋
Similar story here. I’m 38 ttc number 4
cycle 5 here although had chemicals on cycle 3 and 4 so sperm is meeting egg but just not sticking
never had a loss/chemical before
I was long term ttc number one with unexplained infertility, then my other 2 caught within 6 months of trying and these were all in my 20s so I was pretty surprised to see a positive on cycle 3 at 38. I think my age is affecting my egg quality maybe. Started coQ10 this month for egg quality
