TTC after 35

In shock - BFP!

I posted last month that I was giving up on TTC.  This month I did not chart, use OPK's, or pay any attention to my cycle whatsoever.  I guess the week we were on vacation was my window because that was the only time we DTD.  I have been drinking wine, tons of caffeine, and only sporadically taking my PNV's as a multivitamin just because I had them.  AF was due by this morning but was a no-show so I took the last PG test I had this morning thinking there was really no chance of it being a BFP.  And holy crap it was.

My last BFP ended in a MC at 6 weeks so I am cautiously optimistic but not wanting to get my hopes up too much at this point.  I just wanted to post here as you all have been so supportive as I went through months of obsessing over my cycles, and then my MC, and then a few more months of obsessing, and then gave up altogether.  I am hoping this one will stick...

  • So happy for you! Congratulations!!
  • Thank you everyone.  I called my OB and he wants me to come in this week due to my history.  Not sure what he can check out at this point other than maybe doing some bloodwork, but we will see.  I am still completely in disbelief.
