TTC after 35

4th Cycle a BUST!

Well ... AF showed it's ugly ass face on Saturday night! I was supposed to get it on Tuesday, but it came early! DH and I had just arrived home from a wedding and were about to "get busy" if you know what i'm sayin ;), but I had to use the bathroom first and BAM, there it was! A total shock too because I was feeling tired and a little nauseous in the days before. Not my usual PMS symptoms! DH was pretty bummed. He thought for sure this was going to be the month. :(
Sigh ....

 

Me: 38 ~  DH: 38 ~   DD: 8
TTC #2 since March/April 2014.

    All welcome

  • Booooo!! :(
    I'm sorry. I hope next cycle is it!
  • Bah. Sorry to hear that. On the upside, an early AF means you can try again sooner. Hang in there. :)
  • ugh, so sorry for af! 
  • Sorry to hear! How early was it?
    TTC#1 since Aug 2013, I'm 37, DH 41.  
    Maya Arvigo Abdominal massage (daily self care), plus TTC meditations.
    I'm very sensitive to diet (gluten, avoid processed foods) and environment. Have a history of inflammation and tendinitis before going off gluten in 2009.  
    July 2014 - RE Visit #1: Eggs look good, Endometrioma on R ovary, HSG showed blocked R tube close to ovary. DH SA normal 
    DX: Endometriosis probably the IF cause and gunking up tubes.  Since egg reserve is high, RE says I can wait a couple months and then get laproscopic surgery to remove endo & clear tube.  If that doesn't help then move to IVF. 
    Dec 2014 - Saw new RE - does not recommend surgery on tube as it isn't likely to help.  Doubts I have endometriosis.  My endometrioma shrunk to neglible size (yay!) 
    Seriously considering IVF in March/April
    12/17/14 - Natural BFP! 
  • I'm sorry! It sounds like we are cycle buddies this month.

    How long was your luteal phase?

    @TAT2MAMI: A 12-day LP is normal, and your cycle sounds normal. I had an 11-day LP again (more like 11.5 but FF doesn't care. From what I understand, 10- or 11-day LPs are less than optimal, but I'm not trying to get worked up over it. Last month my LP was 13 days.

  • @TAT2MAMI,

    I think that after 12 days it doesn't matter. From what I understand we just need enough time for implantation to happen, and it usually happens by 10DPO.
