TTC after 35

Who's testing this weekend?

It seems like there's a lot of us in the second half of 2WW right now.

8-9 DPO for me but, alas, no symptoms, not even false symptoms from the progesterone. Some women have no symptoms for the first few weeks, right?

How is everyone else? 

Re: Who's testing this weekend?

  • It's way too early for symptoms.  I'm still not having much of anything and I just hit 6 weeks.  Many of my friends have said symptoms don't really start in full force until 6-8 weeks, so I definitely wouldn't count yourself out just because of that.

  • I'm 8DPO and have been feeling crampy since Sunday (l keep checking for AF at all bathroom stops.) I am not on any drugs since this was a non-treatment cycle so I can't blame prometrium/crinone for the cramps so of course I was googling implantation cramps! I have not POAS since 1) it's too early 2) my chances are so slim for a natural pg that it's laughable!

  • I will be testing this weekend - I have made a vow to wait until 10dpo each cycle from now on.  Our ob gave us the go ahead to ttc immediately after the mc - on the the day I o'd - so I have very low hopes this month!

    As far as symptoms - I had ZERO when I got my bfp.  That was actually a symptom to me -I always have cramps, bloating & irritability.

  • I'm CD 29, and had a big "psych" this week.  My temps started going up higher than usual (starting at about 10 DPO), and I'm thinking maybe....and THEN started to go down again this morning.  So I'm expecting AF tomorrow or the next day.  Boo hoo.  Good news is that I had been worried about my luteal phase being too short, but it has been 12-13 days the past two months, so that seems okay.

    Best of luck to you POASers!!!!

  • I am 9 dpo and feeling exactly like I normally do right before FP, tender tingly boobs,and irritable. I don't have much hope for this cycle, but I will test over the week-end.

    What's going on with all of us on the same cycle? It's like we're college dorm roommates or something! ;)

    That whole triphasic thing doesn't happen with everyone.  My chart for this bfp cycle doesn't show it, at least.  I had a dip at 6dpo and thought that was a good sign, but I also had a dip at 9dpo the cycle before that, and 7dpo the cycle before that which amounted to nothing, so I don't really know if that whole "implantation dip" thing is real or not.  The day before I got my bfp this cycle, I had another dip, almost all the way down to the coverline, so I thought I was out this cycle too....  I guess what I'm saying is, it's not over til it's over.

  • Best of luck to everyone testing this week/weekend!  Hope to hear about some more BFPs.

    I'm testing on Sunday if AF isn't here. 

    I definitely have had cramping that isn't in my head, but of course, that doesn't necessarily mean much.  I've also had non-stress related insomnia the last two nights.  I've had that problem before with stress and wake up thinking about work.  But this has been just waking up and feeling completely stress free, mind not spinning, just wishing I wasn't awake.

    Fertility friend has me at 39 points at 9 DPO. I'm feeling more positive and hopeful, but if I'm not this cycle, I won't be crushed since it was only the first try.

    And you're right.  I've heard plenty of stories with BFPs with absolutely no symptoms. 

    Best of luck to all of those testing soon.  FF points drive me crazy.  I had 80 once and I was sure that I was KU but no such luck.

  • ELF432... Interesting about your chart and your BFP, I guess I won't give up hope QUITE yet :).  I have never heard of the implantation temp dip. Uh-oh, a new charting aspect to obsess about!!  Congratulations on your BFP!

  • My RE is testing me on Saturday... Blood test to see if I am pregnant after my IUI. 2 days after my IUI my boobs  engorged in pain... that is my only symptom. Every time I go to the bathroom I hope my period isnt there...
  • Me. I am currently 9 DPO.  I have no symptoms of being pregnant and no symptoms of getting my period - although I have been kinda short tempered today. I'm thinking I might test tonight or tomorrow morning. 

     

    I'm having a hard time waiting until the weekend

  • I'll be testing this weekend, provided there is still a reason to.  I am 11 DPO today and my LP is normally 12 days.  My temp hasn't gone down like it normally does on 10 DPO, but it never really went up substantially, so we'll see. 

    No symptoms of any kind -- either FP or phantom baby symptoms.  I don't normally have any symptoms with FP, which is why I was always taken by surprise before I started charting. 

    Good luck to everyone!

  • I will also be testing this weekend as well. There are a lot of us it appears! 10 DPO for me and my luteal phase is normally long (14-15 days) so I won't test until Sunday until I start before then.

    No AF symptoms but no pregnancy symtoms either. Thought maybe I had an implantation dip yesterday but have decided it's the HCG trigger finally out of my system. It dropped .9 yesterday and stayed there today. It's so hard not to read so much into each and every thing that happens on your chart. Charting is a curse and a blessing at the same time! Good luck to us all.
