O.k. well because either i didnt ovulate or i missed the eggie last few times im dtd every second day after af is gone so we started 2 days ago and i dont know when i will ovulate for sure im only using +opk SO basically im dtd tonight again and every second night if we can!And if its o day then it is, if its not then not a problem! For sure there will be some waiting for the egg!Ive actually gone quite relaxed now about swaying i used to stress so much but now i give up trying to control all the details..

Ladybug so sorry i hope it turns around to a sticky bean for you xx

Ummm Wow.. kinda wanted to ask for this and didn't have to- he asked my age (36) and said as long as I was OK with the possibility of twins we should get this going. I'm really excited actually.

I asked about the supps and clomid and he felt there was no problem/no contraindications- I think Atomic had something on here about vitex and/or saw palmetto being a problem with clomid. I'll have to search around or start a thread.

Any thoughts on this??

Yeah i read somewhere on the threads about taking them together isnt advised but cant find it or remember exactly too? Thats good news about twins,nice!!...or you do want twins??

Oh no Ladybug....that really sucks. so disappointing.... ((hugs))

Oh no Ladybug - I hope AF stays away!!

Ladybug- hope your AF stays away. How r u today?
Sweetsister- I'd actually love twins. Always been a dream of mine! Obviously no guarantee he just said it really increases the chances.
Lemon- hoping you get your bfp. You said positive about your attempt!

I just got AF.....definately a chemical...:(.....Oh well hopefully next time it will be a sticky bean...Good luck ladies!!!

I'm soooo sorry, ladybug :HH:

Oh, I'm so sorry Ladybug. It sucks, doesn't it?:sadflwr:

So sorry Ladybug, was praying you'd get a good outcome. Huge hugs to you and hope you get a quick BFP :HH:

So sorry ladybug! :(

Hi everyone,
Ladybug I am sooo sorry. It must be really deflating and make time stand still or take forever...!
Hopefully you feel better and that you can enjoy the holidays and look forward to a sticky NY baby!

Sweet sister,,,I think we have to let a lot go to get pregnant. It is what it is!
I bd twice on what I tought was o day....but, then again it might have been 0-6 hours...,lol, but not technically the same day. I have to figure out if I can muster enough energy to try again.
I have so much to do!
I got a peak on my cbfm yesterday...usually o day but today I still have o symptoms and EW.
That would not be unusual but I got my cheapie OPK in the mail (I had run out days ago) and it is super super dark!
Does anyone have experience with the super dark OPKs? Does that mean am on top of o?
Should I go again...ugh!
It is just not much fun.....anyone with advice would be great!

Hope everyone is doing well and getting ready for the New year and the Holidays!

That's crap ladybug, not what you needed at all. I would feel so let down after getting my hopes up with a BFP. You can join me (and others) in Jan TTC! Maybe 2012 will prove to be the best year yet. Take care.

Oh, Ladybug...Sending you all my :HH:

So sorry ladybug... such a let down :(

Thanks ladies!!! I am doing ok. Feeling a little bitter at the moment. I hope
2012 is a better year

Oh, hugs ladybug!
Here is to you and a baby girl in 2012:)

I totally agree. 2011 has been a terrible year for me too, for several reasons. I am sooooo ready for a new year and a new start. I'm sure 2012 will be a better year for both of us :HH:

I agree w/both of you, Mocha and LadyBug...2011 just plain SUCKED! I CAN'T WAIT FOR 2012!!!

Hello,
Looks like this thread is pretty quiet!
I have been absent for a few days but not much new here.

Any BFP? ANy attempts?

Just wondering...how hard is it to get pregnant at 38? I am getting worried!!!!
Especially with all this swaying.

Happy birthday, lemon!!! Yes, we'll definitely have a harder time getting pregnant that we did when we were younger, but I think if you've been fertile in the past, you should still be able to get knocked up, even with the swaying - it just might take a little longer. Personally, I'm running out of patience. If I don't get my BFP this month, the rephresh will be the first to go, but I'm going to try to keep up with the diet since I've invested soooo much time into it and managed to get pregnant while on it before.

Hey everyone, I haven't been posting in this thread too much because it seems like I am the only over 35 boy swayer! Anyway, I have had 2 BFNs so far, and I am thinking it IS harder to get pg when you are 38 (I just turned 39 :suprise:). I am hoping the new year is better for all of us! I would love an October baby, so I have my FX that January is a good fertile month for me!

I hope the new year brings lots of BFPs!! :)

I haven't been posting too much lately because I'm trying not to concentrate so much on swaying. I was getting to the point where all I was thinking about was a BFP. I'm in the 2WW, and I want it to go fast...but it's not, of course!

Probably a good move to stay away a bit, Yuzu. Sometimes I wonder if the 2WW wouldn't be quite so painfully long if I wasn't online constantly obsessing over symptoms and charts.

I also know that immediately after my loss I was just so impatient to be pregnant again that the 2WW seemed longer and worse than usual. I really hope you get your BFP! :HH:

Happy birthday lemon!! I agree with mocha and have read if you've been fertile in the past u continue to b able to get preggo for the most part

Hobber- it Doesnt matter if your swaying blue or pink!!! We all belong here :)

Happy Bday Lemon!! Hope you had a good day....supposedly as we get older, we naturally concieve more daughters, mum had me at 37 so FX you'll get your girl!!

Yuz & Mocha, I feel the same way about obessing over symptoms! If I didn't love chatting with you ladies as much as I do, I'd try to stay away, but I love coming on here and reading the updates and just the kinship of you lovely ladies in my same boat! It's very special :)

FX to all the swayers going at in January...Hobbers, October is a lovely month for a baby to be born. My DS1 is late Oct and I love his birth month, very fun!

Thanks! yes, I think October would be great! :)

My Mom had me, her only girl after 3 boys in October, so I'll console myself if I don't get my BFP this month with the thought that maybe I'm meant to have my only girl in October too. My DD would be right around my birthday, too, which is October 15th.

Thanks for the birthday wishes and support!

Mocha..how much rephresh did you use????
I have some symptoms but not sure what is going on as I think they are normal before AF. I am due in two days..not spotting this month...which is usually normal for me.
Does your mom remember any tricks to have a girl???lol!

According to my Mom, she didn't do anything different to have me. She was older by then, though (33 - which seems young to me, but she started having babies at 23), and I think she was probably a little thinner from running after 3 young boys.

I didn't use much rephresh. I used 1/3-1/2 tube 3 times, with the last application about 3 days before O. If I don't get my BFP this month I'll probably drop it completely next month.

Well it is officially 2012 (in Australia anyway!) Happy New Year. 2012 has a good vibe to it, so I hope to see lots of BFPs (mine included!) I am not surprised there have not been as many posts as normal. What a crazy busy time of year. GL to everyone TTC in January!!

Isn't that always the way....I did nothing and got a girl...ugh!

Did you use the rephresh right before dtd or in the morning?
OOTB...are you using rephresh next time?

I have cramping and spotting....so back to ttc!
My plan is to go loose on everything and just try! I am 38 and maybe it is not that easy for me anymore. DS1 was second month trying and DS 2 was an oops....back when I was younger!

Mocha...it sounds like you did a great job!
Good luck!

PS: Thanks peony!!!

lemon - dh and I dtd every day starting 6 days before O and ending 1 day before O (I would have liked to get one more attempt in, but DH was done at that point - esp after releasing daily for 6 days before we started our attempts). I used rephresh 9 days before ), 6 days before O and 3 days before O - only a little each time, and always in the morning, about 12 hours before our attempt. If I don't get my BFP this month I won't be using rephresh at all next month.

Good luck to all you lovely ladies on this thread, will be praying for lots of BFP's! I'm sure there will be LOTS of 2012 babies!

ooooh Mocha, your chart is looking good :)

Thanks, Indigo. The high temps are promising, but I don't like there being no implantation dip - I've always gotten them with my other pregnancies....

there could be loads of reasons for no dip, some of my pg I had them, others not. FX for you!

Thanks, Indigo :HH:
