Holding onto a little hope halfway through the 2WW

in TTC after 35

I am 8 days DPO and have been putting off filling my prescription for the IVF cycle I am supposed to start for my next cycle. The pharmacy has called twice and I keep telling her to check back with me in a couple of days. Certainly don't want to spend the money on meds if I don't have to!

I know this is probably wishful thinking but I'm feeling good about our timing this month and I have no lower back pain or any other telltale signs that AF is coming.  Normally CD 1 should be about 10 dpo, so I should know soon enough.I don't plan on testing until I think AF is late, maybe that will work. Yeah right...

Hope everyone in the 2ww is doing well.

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.

    Sounds promising and the positive thinking can only help! There have been lots if BFPs on this board fx that you will the next one. I hear you on the IVF meds they are crazy expensive and would delay them too! Good Luck and keep us updated!

ET 11/29 Transferred 3 embryos. Beta is 12/10. 1st Beta 81 2nd Beta 160 and 3rd beta 360!!!

    I am wishing you lots of good luck.  Like pp mentioned, we have been having lots of BFP lately.  Lets keep the positives coming...

    I think I am out this month - although I had some crazy symptoms yesterday & this morning my temp went back up .1

    Holding onto hope is completely normal :-)  Hoping that your hope turns into spontaneous success and we get good news from you soon.  It has happened here, although it would be better if it was more frequent.

    Here's hoping that you get to keep the veteran BPF rally going for us!!!
    Me 39 & suspected PCOS, DH 42. Went off BCP when we got married in 11/11, seriously TTC since 3/12.  Six cycles of clomid = BFNs.  Suspected endometriosis & HSG showed both tubes blocked.  Sept 2013 IVF 5D transfer of two perfect embryos = BFN.  Started acupuncture and taking time off to drop some pounds & get healthier before FET in April 2014.
