Over 40 TTC.... and I KNOW I am not the ONLY one: Part IV

Well, we got to page 16 so I started it over......

here's a recap of my story:
My name is Carolyn... I am 37 (close to 40) and just had my first child this summer but dh and I don't want to wait too long for another because it took us 2 years to have our first and we are getting older..... so we are TTC #2 now!

I have a question for you ladies: my temp dropped today but I have been getting negative opks so far.... only been testing once a day because I am only on cycle day 10 today and usually I O around day 12.... do you think I missed the surge and we should bd anyway today? or should I just wait and see if I get a postive opk in the next few days?

Just checking in. How is everybody doing?

I'm just waiting for AF to make an appearance. I have to go in and have a saline sonogram (ick!) between CD5 and 12 to make sure I have no uterine scarring or residual fetal tissue. Fun times.

Hiya, essemkay, I hope you are slowly getting better. I guess having further procedures done for no good cause is very tough. Thinking of you!

How is everyone else doing?

Toronto, thanks for asking....I got a faint positive on an ANSWER test yesterday. Waiting to test again over the weekend. I'm very nervous. I posted the test in the gallery.

@Essemkay - I heard that Saline Sonograms help people get their BFP. I had one late October and got pregnant in December. Not sure if they were related.

Thanks Toronto. I took another one this morning and it is positive. I'll call my RE on Monday, so I can get my beta done. I'm cautiously optimistic at this point. I haven't even told DH. Don't want to get his hopes up.

Saline sonogram is tomorrow. Hopefully, there will be no scarring found or any other issues.
