Hey girls of the 70s,
First of all, my thoughts are with you both Lisserb and Esperenza, its a hard thing for anyone but the kick feels a little harder at our age. I hope the days are not too long and you are both ready to join us soon.
Welcome to the new girls Jwantsababy, purplemist, ktosello, and msr238, hope we can help you through this baby making journey.
To the POAS addicts, I have already tested, yesterday at 7dpo...my my, I need help. Anyone else resisiting the urge? any tips on beating the urge?
Destiny how are you going? Dont get me wrong but I hope you are feeling tired, hope your breasts hurt and I hope that nausea hits you soon all telling us baby is here to stay!
AFM: I am looking forward to next weekend, when I will know one way or another, I will of course test between now and then. I think I am getting symptoms but they could just as easily be PMS.
Oh well, hope everyone has had a nice weekend and this week we might see some BFP's

Hi Ladies!! I've missed you all!!
Sorry it has been so long since my last check in... work has been getting the best of me. Its been a LONG week.
Welcome to all of the new ladies!
@lisserb and @esperanza :: I am SOOOO sorry!!!!!! My heart is broken for you both. You and your families are in my prayers.
@ttc@41, @hopefulat40 and @MountainMama :: I shall be stalking, uh 'watching' the thread everyday until I see a BFP from each one of you! So, no pressure LOL!!
@jwantsababy :: I'm on Prometrium - 400mg every night, vaginally. My doc prescribed it for me after my first MC last April. I was on 200mg, to start after BFP, initially. I got pregnant twice more after that - both were chemicals. After the last time the past December, she upped my dosage to 400mg (again to start upon BFP). Apparently, I was manufacturing enough progesterone to have a regular menstrual cycle but not enough to sustain a pregnancy. I see my doctor on Wednesday, but so far so good.
AFM... I am 5w5d by my LMP. I have my first OB appointment on Wednesday and I am SO EXCITED!! I was a little skeptical for the past 4 days or so because I'm not really having any symptoms. When I first got my BFP I was somewhat fatigued, but that's it. Then some constipation got the best of me, but that happens sometimes when I'm not pregnant so I haven't really thought anything of it. As yall know, I've been so afraid of having another chemical so I went and bought more HPTs yesterday "just to see" and something happened that I've never seen before. The test line was extremely darker than the control line! At first I thought the test was backwards ... but I looked in the gallery on this site, and I see now that my test line must've sucked ALL of the dye up because the control line (the line that would be there regardless of bfp or bfn) is FAINT! You could've knocked me over with a feather.

AFM... I had my first OB appt yesterday. The baby was measuring 5w5d, and the sac 6w. No heartbeat yet (but its still early) so I have to go back next week for a follow up scan to make sure his development is on track. I'm confident it will be
Hope all the rest of my 70s sisters are doing well!! all around!!
