We made a honeymoon souvenir.. (BFP mentioned)

lgsdesignerlgsdesigner member
in TTC after 35
First off-- didn't think it would happen so soon. This is a very happy surprise for us!
I am stil in disbelief. I am a little nervous...FX all goes smoothly throughout the pregnancy.

image

Cycle/Month: 1/2

EDD: May 31, 2015

Timing: -3,-1,0,+1

What we did: Lots of sex, PNV, POM juice, pineapple core, clean diet, relaxing on the beach (not sure that helped, but me being a high anxiety person, it may have).

Symptoms: A ton-- super sore boobs, fatigue, nausea, dizzy spells, headaches, aversion to water (tastes metallic), shortness of breath (just from walking like....6 steps), heightened sense of smell.

Test Day: 13DPO (My BFP Chart: https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/1bf62f/)

How I told DH: I don't see him until tonight, but I plan to tell him this way: We go out to dinner every Thursday night after our workout, so when he asks me what I want to eat, I will say "Hmmm...I don't know. Pickles and ice cream sounds REALLY good right about now!" 
And then show him the test. :)

The mushy stuff: I LOVE you ladies soooo much, and am actually very sad to leave here. You are an amazing support team, feel like real friends, and are a blast! I will miss you all dearly, and hope to see you all on the pregnancy boards soon! xoxoxo

    Off Mirena Nov 2013, On Nuvaring end of Jan, Back off Sept 2014.  Never ending cycle starting end of Sept... 
    11/14 Provera failed... cycle continues 
    12/14 High FSH (57 "midcycle")  OBGYN had no clue... about anything 
    01/15 More lab results coming back from RE. U/S showed small (1")cyst on left ovary, thin lining, and couldn't locate right ovary so  possibly straight to DE and IVF 

    Occassionally mess with the chart below to see "what if" and learn (not to make it pretty but because FF stays drunk with me).

    Wow! Amazing and wonderful, I had a feeling for you!!!
    TTC#1 since Aug 2013, I'm 37, DH 41.  
    Maya Arvigo Abdominal massage (daily self care), plus TTC meditations.
    I'm very sensitive to diet (gluten, avoid processed foods) and environment. Have a history of inflammation and tendinitis before going off gluten in 2009.  
    July 2014 - RE Visit #1: Eggs look good, Endometrioma on R ovary, HSG showed blocked R tube close to ovary. DH SA normal 
    DX: Endometriosis probably the IF cause and gunking up tubes.  Since egg reserve is high, RE says I can wait a couple months and then get laproscopic surgery to remove endo & clear tube.  If that doesn't help then move to IVF. 
    Dec 2014 - Saw new RE - does not recommend surgery on tube as it isn't likely to help.  Doubts I have endometriosis.  My endometrioma shrunk to neglible size (yay!) 
    Seriously considering IVF in March/April
    12/17/14 - Natural BFP!

    @kindershlitz - I wish I could stay and chat with you all, but hopefully, I will see you guys soon on Preg over 35! 
    And thanks-- they actually need redone this week. My sister is a nail tech and did gel nails, but that was two days before the wedding. Can't believe they actually lasted this long!

    @BaytoSA - Ha! Thank you! I will really miss you ladies, but maybe some of you can take over my old posts and keep this board spunky and well, yes? :)
