TTC after 35

Vacation and CD1 :(

I will probably be MIA till Monday. We are camping and service is spotty so not sure how much I will get to bump.
So it's my birthday on Sunday and had high hopes of getting my BFP but I woke up to my period today. So needless to say I will be spending my 4 days camping drunk. I will be thinking of all my girls who cans drink at the moment, especially you @BeckyP005. I don't have rum with me but I will have a whiskey for you. Oh and they have square /line dancing here on Saturday night, if I'm drunk enough I may try it.
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend and cheers!!!!!!!!!

Re: Vacation and CD1 :(

  • First-- sorry about your CD1. :(

    Secondly-- is it odd I have never been camping before? I need to try it. Hope you have fun!
  • I'm sorry about AF. 

    On the plus side, drunken square dancing! I demand video evidence.
    Me: 38 DH: 40 TTC#1 (and likely only) since 9/13. Saw RE 5/14, SA good, AMH 2.36, FSH 7.2, estradiol 69.6 indicating good egg reserve. Using OPKs. First Letrozole cycle 6/14, a burst cyst and a BFN. Second Letrozole cycle 7/14, BFN. 

    Update 11/14 - had laparoscopy 10/28, good news is that my uterus and left tube look good, and they were able to drain the cyst on my left ovary. Bad news is that right tube and ovary have endo and scar tissue, so they're pretty useless.. Best news is that we finally have some answers and a path forward. Taking 7.5 mg letrozole CD 2-6 to put that good left ovary through its paces. 

    UPDATE 2/2015 - We switched to another fertility clinic, but fortunately we don't have to start all over. We're doing two cycles of Clomid plus IUI, if neither of those take, we'll do IVF in April, potentially with ICSI. (DH's SA has gone downhill, likely due to excessive exercise.) IUI#1 2/25/15....

  • Ohhhh. drunken square dancing sounds awesome!!! I'm very sorry about ugly AF...but booze and camping go hand-in-hand.

  • Thanks for all the birthday wishes.

    @kris-dan we were at Wildwood state park. It's in Wading River on Long Island. It's close to the north fork.

    @Austrogermokee‌ I actually was "cramping" while "camping"

    Sorry @BeckyP005 I didn't line dance. We ended up hanging out with the people in the site next to ours and drank all dang night!!!!
