TTC after 35

My TWW is a three-WW

(previous child mentioned)

This waiting is playing tricks on my mind. I'm not sure if/when I ovulated this month, because I got a week's worth of "high" readings but no "peak" reading on my fertility monitor. That also happened in 2012, when I conceived my daughter, so I knew I could still have ovulated without having shown a peak. However, my cycles tend to be long -- 34+ days -- so it is just a long haul of waiting to ovulate, waiting to test, waiting for period, etc. I've been testing every morning, and all BFNs so far, but I hold out hope that I ovulated really late. If I ovulated on the first day I got a "high" reading, then I am 15 DPO now, and I should have gotten a BFP already. If I ovulated later on, then today is only 11 DPO, and I might get a positive in a few days. But of course I started testing on the earliest possible day, and each day that I get a negative, I get a little more discouraged.

Sending everyone good vibes.

Re: My TWW is a three-WW

  • I too have long cycles, usually 35+ days. The waiting is what kills me...it just seems to take soooo long to ovulate. And then sometimes I don't even ovulate!! That's strange you didn't get a "peak" reading but promising if you conceived before. 11DPO is still a little early so definitely keep testing and don't give up yet! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.
