TTC after 35

How is everyone in the 2WW doing?

I know there are at least 6 of us in ART cycles and at least 2 more in "au natural" cycles. 

Me - At 6dp3dt for the our IVF cycle, I'm swinging wildly from being sure nothing took and all the embryos died to thinking, well, maybe. I'm not feeling any different at all and today we found out our last embryo didn't even make it to blast, let alone freezing quality blast. Not that we expected it to, but still, not a good sign.

How is everyone holding up?

Good luck to everyone testing soon.

  • Annalisel, I really hope that this is the one for you! 

    I am 5dpIUI -- should get FP on the 23 or 24.  It is still early, but I haven't been too distracted by the 2ww.  But I just finished up a huge project at work, so now I will have plenty of time to obsess.

  • Well, tomorrow ends my 2WW, and I am not expecting good things. I've been obsessing this week since the 2nd pink line on my positive PG test has gotten lighter, not darker and this morning was not even there.

     Ridiculous, but I really have hope that my tests are wrong.

    Here's hoping that we all get the  BFPs we are looking for this month. 

     Good luck ladies!

    TTC since 3/2010. Me 41, DH-49. After 3 years, 6 IUIs and several IVFs we have finally have our beautiful baby girl, born on 11/7/13.

  • Sigh.

    That's kind of my answer to the question at 4dp5dt, so exactly the same as you, as you pointed out.  My mood swings are the same and I'm the same boat with our leftover embryo not making it to blast, too.  Today I "felt" like I was a little "crampy" but honestly, I know better than to think that means anything given all the damn progesterone.  And I really, really wanted a glass of wine tonight.  Normally I would have but the clinic said not to, so....

    me - 41 (dx: DOR); DH - 53 (no problems); 7/18/09 - married!; 8/4/09 - BFP on first (real)try; 9/14/09 - missed m/c; 9/15/09 - d&c; 11/09 - 3/10 - 4 natural cycles = BFN; 4/10 - dx hyperthyroidism caused by Graves' disease; 6/10 - thyroidectomy; 7/10 - 12/10 - 1 natural and 5 medicated IUI cycles = BFN; 1/11 - new RE; dx low ovarian reserve (AMH .42; 1/26/11 -- BFP (ectopic) from IUI #6; methotrexate 2/10/11; 6/2/11 - IVF #1 = BFN; 9/12/11 - prescreening for DE; 9/15/11 - IUI #7 (unmedicated)= BFN; 11/8 - begin DE cycle (shared risk program); 12/5 - ER (5 eggs/4 mature/3 fertilized/2 left by day 5) 12/10 - ET of one 1BB blast (expanded, "fair" quality), none to freeze; 12/22 - totally shocked by +hpt; beta #1 = 413; #2 = 3952 2/14 - CVS reveals a healthy baby girl! EDD: 8/27/12 DD born 8/31/12, 10 lbs 10 oz and perfect in every way. 
  • At 7DPO I am my usual obsessive, neurotic self.  Counting the hours til I can take my temp again.  As much as I fought it--temping is actually giving me something real to look at every day.. good or bad I always have some new dip or rise to consider.  :)  Good luck to all!

    I hear you!  I was so obsessed with temperature taking right before and after my IUI that I was getting up at 2 in the morning & going out to the couch so I wouldn't fall into too deep of a sleep to get up and temp at 6 am.

  • I keep looking at my calendar. Seems like it's going to be a long 2ww. I've been snacking more and part of me thinks maybe i'm eating more because something good is going on, but then the other part realizes it's probably just me being anxious and eating more.

  • I have a week and a day to go before I can take a HPT. I am not obsessing, but I am really weepy over the dumbest things that should not make me weepy. I'm assuming it's Crinone side effects. Good luck to all. I hope this board has lots of BFPs this month.
    Baby #1 due 2/10/14!
