TTC after 35

TWW: Feb 6 - 12

Tell us how many DPO you are, what you're doing/not doing this month, when/if you'll test, and symptoms that have you wondering if this is THE month! 

If you haven't already made a separate intro, please first do so in a separate discussion thread so we can get to know you! Good luck!

Re: TWW: Feb 6 - 12

  • So I tested this morning and BFN. 14DPO for me which is when the RE said to test. I usually start AF on 17DPO but RE said the Femara would give me a 14 day luteal phase so I'm waiting...
  • oh that sucks @Momifbysea - guess you never really know until AF comes or in my case AF comes and I got a BFP a couple weeks later.  FX

  • Yeah I guess I just hang out? :/
  • I'm sorry for the negative test @Momifbysea. We are on the exact same schedule it sounds like. 

    I am also 13 DPO and couldn't wait one more day so I tested this morning and got a BFN.  My husband is certain that I am pregnant this month because I was nice to him yesterday HAHAHAHA!  Back in March 2016 when I was pregnant for a week, the hormonal shift in my body was amazing. I felt so good and happy and clear headed and he felt yesterday like he saw a glimpse of that.  I don't really see that as a valid symptom to mark early pregnancy.  It's still early and with my 2 children's pregnancies, I didn't get a BFP until well past my missed period so there is still hope this month.

  • I didn't get a BFP until I was 4 weeks with DD @brigidjerrell but I was the exact opposite of you - I was always pissed at DH especially if I was Hangry.

  • Thanks ladies, guess until I see red I'll hold on to some hope here!

  • @Momifbysea clomid made me one day later than usual, so I'm not sure why femara would make yours shorter. But they are different meds I guess. Hang in there!

  • I'm 15 DPO now. Still negative test and I think I'm spotting a little bit. :( I think I'm out this cycle. 

    EDD 6/18/18
    DD=10/5/10 DS=4/9/13
  • I'm 3dpo. This cycle is wonky though as I had a cp loss on 1/9 and didn't actually O until cd 29. Technically supposed to be benched this cycle but we decided to take a ntnp approach and see what happens. 
  • I'm on CD22... O was CD13 and FF then changed it to CD15. Ovia says O was CD14... so I'm either DPO 7,8 or 9... uurrgghh dying to test tomorrow. . But scared of BFN disappointment,  would be great to get a BFP as the 12th would have been my dad's (passed two years ago) birthday. .. small hopes :-)

  • @brigidjerrell sorry you are out! You never know though! I had given up Thursday and had enough bright red when I wiped to give up, use a tampon, and call the RE clinic to schedule my IVF bloodwork. But since Thursday morning, nothing further! Like, where's my period?!? This is 18DPO and I got another bfn this morning. So confused!

    @Mommyamp FX for you and at least you know you're trying as much as you can on your bench cycle. Good for you!

    @SP128 how are you doing? Keep us posted on your wait and thanks for the encouragement!

    @DeeVeeZee so sorry about your dad but a BFP sure would be cool right now! I totally get the fear of not wanting to see the bfn, such a head game! Ugh!!! Thinking of you.
  • @Momifbysea - that's weird.  Maybe it was the Fermera messing with your cycle?  Give it some more time.  I didn't get a bfp with DD until 4 weeks so sometimes it can take that long to show up.  I had a small period with her too.

  • @Momifbysea  How confusing.  Not out til AF shows though.  I am 10DPO today.  I spotted a little on 8 & 9 DPO.  I feel like I'm out.  I usually spot before AF.  Sometimes the spotting starts like a week before but always just a little.  Enough to make me think it's IB until I snap out of it.  FX for you.

    @brigidjerrell  Sorry for the BFN  Not out until the full flow comes!!!

    @DeeVeeZee  GL!!!!! Keep us updated

  • @Momifbysea so sorry you are out hugs 
    @vlagrl29 my friend also had a period when she carried her twins. . Never thought that was possible but it definitely was - so even more things to mess with the mind when TTC! !!

    So it is Sunday morning. . And got a. .. B...F...N... so disappointed. ..glimmer of hope is maybe it was too early.  Will be buying more tests today as I used two  (couldn't believe the digital so in a fit of crazy I actually cracked it open to see inside as well ) and then used the cheapie! 

    GL for all who are still in.

  • @DeeVeeZee I'm so sorry you're out too. Hugs back at you. You crack me up about breaking open the test! As for me, I ate a whole pile of Reese's mini cups and left the wrappers on the counter so DH came home and was like, wow! Lol. It's been a long stressful crazy week. What's your plan for next cycle then?
  • @DeeVeeZee  I'm hoping with you that it is too early!!  

    @Momifbysea  Love it.  Got to do what you gotta do!  For me it would be Twix : )

  • I swore I'd wait until Friday 2/17 to test. Of course it's only Sunday and I'm already starting to have the urge to test. It's doing to be a long week if I can't keep myself preoccupied. Lol
  • @Mommyamp I totally understand!!! Try your best to stay busy! I actually volunteered to take on more at work to help force me to stay off google! Lol
  • I'm out... AF decided to grace me with her presence today  :/

  • BFN Monday morn and this morn  (Tuesday morning in sunny South Africa! ) But AF due on Thursday. . So praying she stays away! !! 

    @momifbysea Reeces mini cups... mmmm... just sounds yummy! Next cycle we want to try pre seed (read it worked for some people here. ..) but here is the kicker went to our local pharmacy and they had NO idea what it was. .. so possibly not available in SA... if AF here on Thur we are going to Dischem. . A super big pharmacy retailer here and explain what we want. . Hopefully they have something similar!  If that doesnt work,  we are going to the doc! 

    @Mommyamp I try...And fail...every. ..single. ..time! !! Just can't help myself! !!! It's like the reasoning side of my brain is on holiday during TWW!

    @katekate628 so sorry xxx

    @brigidjerrell hugs right back at ya. 

    @SP128 not out till AF rears her head.  FX xxx

  • I'll probably cave tomorrow. I'll be 9 dpo, which is the earliest I've ever gotten a bfp. Still trying to hold out until Friday but I know tomorrow will be tempting.
