This is a little corner of the world for those of us who didn't conceive in February. A small place for those of us that need support, encouragement etc during this crazy TTC journey. Blessed all of us that enter! You're not alone! A little bit about myself. I am 40 and DF is 49. We've been TTC'ing for ol' bout 5 months now with no avail, no BFP, no baby. We will keep moving forward. I know one day we'll get it right! We're currently doing the ol' fashion SMEP! I am wishing each of you My goal is for you to find strength, advise and positivity . Welcome ya'lll!

@calvingirl i was saying that to my husband the other day. We dated for 10 years before getting married and never once had a pregnancy scare bc we were super careful and deathly afraid. Now here we are at 37 actively trying after 'doing everything right' and we lose our baby at 23 weeks and are now back to square one. Life is a funny thing...

mememe32- so sorry to see you back here. I have an approx 30 day cycle and have been using OPKs since CD5 (when AF finished) I used them once per day from CD5 till CD9. From CD10 I have been using twice a day, 10am and 3pm. From CD12 I have also been using CB digi OPK with FMU. Once my OPKs start getting darker I use 4 or more OPKs a day. Though this month, CD19 and OPKs are still so light I'm beginning to think this will be an annovulatory cycle.

katyfootballmomma — we used the SMEP and it worked the first time, three times in a row (MC, baby, MC.) This last time around it wasn’t working — we tried for four months and then I started seeing a fertility acupuncturist and she recommended doing it every other day (or adjusting based on BBT.) We did that last month and BAM we’re pregnant. Just wanted to share in case that might help — our husbands are the same age Hope you get your BFP soon!

Hey ladies I had a question for the ones who have experienced a loss. I know I’m probably stressing and need to relax as a friend told me the same thing lol. But I have been have fertile cm since CD8 took opk all negative around CD16 it’s watery cm now still negative opk. I am now on CD 19 and still negative opk even bought the clear blue digital “blank ?circle?” I have read that most women ovulate 2weeks after there miscarriage but I’m going on 3weeks now on Monday? We have been BDing every other day. Can someone give me some relief?

Beaut1ful38- after my first loss I went straight back to a 28 day cycle, after my second it was 6.5 weeks before AF returned (i wasn't using OPKs back then so not sure on O). Every person and every loss we respond differently. Keep testing hun.
BB2018- I see a second line on the last one, but given how dark the test dried I'm not sure I'd trust it yet. Definitely keep testing!!
AFM- Finally got a positive OPK today (CD21) which definitely puts this cycle into December. Now to get BD when DH wakes up. We DTD CD16, 17, 18 & 19 already, but I was giving up hope so had yesterday off ????

Hi ladies! Good to hear from you all. 10/11/12 dpo unsure? And had a negative pregnancy test this am that turned light positive after time allotment. I did a very low dose trigger 14 days ago so it could be that. Really don’t want to get my hopes up again month after month. I’m so sorry to those ladies who had chemicals/that got positives to only get their periods. It’s so heartbreaking
Glad to see that we’re not alone in this and have each other
