Thread: BFP at 43!!

  1. #1

    BFP at 43!!

    This is to give other later moms hope, as I know I eagerly read any posts with positive news for older ladies when ttc.
    Actually, I had given up ttc two months ago as I figured I had missed the boat after turning 43 in October, but realised this morning my period was late by three days and I hadn't got any usual pre menstrual spots on my face. And there it was, a bfp!
    Now of course I'm stressing over dropping my folic acid two months ago, and flying to Barcelona (took two valium for this as nervous flier) and being on two antibiotics for toothache during the 2ww
    These I'm sure already added to the high risk of m/c that at 43 I have to be aware of.

    Anyway, one day at a time..

    At the beginning I was swaying pink but over the months dropped nearly everything as just wanted to get preg, now the only swaying factor that is in my favour is one attempt around ov. (I had stopped charting temps so cant pinpoint o)

    Here's hoping
