DP and I are 43/42, we have been trying for a baby for over 9 years. We opted for IVF three years ago, fell pregnant first time with twins sadly lost both, one at 8 weeks the other at 17 weeks (very traumatic).
We tried IVF for a second time but it didn't take.
After our second attempt and our years of trying au natural we decided it was not meant to be.
We moved from stressful/busy London in September to Kent.
Aunt flo was late this month, took a pregnancy test expecting nothing, the test came back a BFP, I couldn't believe my eyes. I took another test later that day and there it was again BFP!!!
I went to mothercares and bought one of those Baby On Board signs for the car and wore it around my belly when I got home. DP was in shock and over the moon.

I'm 6 weeks tomorrow, please keep your fingers crossed for us that this one is a keeper x

If it's any consolation, the same thing happened with my mother. She didn't conceive for 21 years, had a miscarriage at 41 then got pregnant with me. Thinking of you and crossing fingers for the future.

Really sorry to hear your sad news Jools, sending good thoughts your way.

jools70 · 29/11/2012 01:16

Girls thank you for your support x

Its 1am and I can't sleep! I've taken this week off work to think about things.
DP is very upset, I didn't expect him to be so excited about the pregnancy, he reacted differently when we concieved through IVF.
Going to see my mum tomorrow, I didn't want to tell her over the phone, I'm sure there will be tears.
We have a house warming party Sat so planning this will keep me busy.
I'm leaving this post now and will look to the future.
Good luck to all who are trying and a happy healthy pregnancy to all those who have a little life inside them x
