TTC after 35

Looks Like CD1 Will Be in Full Swing This Evening

Well, it looks like I will be on cd1 at some point tonight.  I just started spotting and usually that means full-blown heavy flow within an hour or so.  Guess I'll definitely go buy some OPK's and try that this cycle as well as temping.  Of course I have to buy a new thermometer as well because some small people in my house don't know how to leave things alone.

Oh well.  Good luck to me and everyone else!  Fingers crossed for this next cycle.

  • I'm sorry, Suz!! Have you used Wondfos in the past? You can get a bundle of 50 from Amazon and they'll last a while (although I hope you don't have to use them all).

  • Sorry about CD1. I keep putting off buying OPKs but think I might try them next cycle also. Good luck for your new cycle.
  • :( sorry for CD1!

  • @URMySunshine77 - I've never used opk's at all.  I was going to buy some from Dollar Tree for this cycle to see if I can figure it out.  I'll probably order them from Amazon for next cycle if this one doesn't pan out.

    The really sucky part is that DH has put a time limit on TTC so I only have until my next bday to get pregnant.  Oh well.  Trying to not be terribly depressed right now.

  • Sorry about CD1.  Hopefully the OPKs work.  I would also second what URMySunshine77 said about using Wondfo from Amazon over Dollar Tree ones.  I have to use like 3 a day to catch the surge.  On a 10 day fertility window, that can add up at a dollar a strip.

  • I'm sorry :(

    I know it's harder than hell but try not to think about the time limit. MH and I had one yet here we are still trying!

    Good luck to you.
    I am not sure how to say this without getting a "solicitation" warning so I guess I just say that I am not longer active on THIS site. 



  • My husband gave me three more months to try and that was over a year ago. I think he forgot that we had a time frame. Hopefully your husband will do the same.

  • Sorry about the CD1 but sounds like you are being really positive about it. Good luck next cycle!
  • On the bright side, a well deserved cocktail perhaps??  So sorry :-(

    I used the dollar tree, but the temping meant I didn't need to use them daily, i could definitely tell, and I just used the OPK to confirm, I only used 2 and that was just because I thought I should probably try one out before hand so I had a comparison.

    It worked, but it didn't stick, but OPK's can't help with that. :-)

  • Sorry to hear.. I am right there with u.. hope we have some luck soon/
