October 2018 Babies
Hi and Welcome to October 2018 babies corner! This forum is created for those of us that didn't get a bfp in December 2017 and anyone who wants to join/pop in/lurk around our corner for happenings, updates, good news moral support etc. Little bit about myself. I'm 40 & DF is almost 50. I joined quite some time ago. Df and i have Been actively ttc'ing for a couple of months now with no such luck. We'll keep praying for our little addition to the family and understand that this is in god's hands and it's only going to happen on his time, not ours. In the meantime, i can only pray the sperm will meet that egg soon!! How bout yall? What method(s) are you currently using?

@Beaut1ful38. I totally agree as I am in the same boat to try anything. It also helps with making the luteal phase a little longer. That's what I was thinking too and it is a little cheaper by a couple CAD dollars. Okay, Emerita Pro-Gest Natural Progesterone Cream, Paraben-Free, 4-Ounce Tube and the other is Emerita Pro-gest Natural Balancing Cream with Lavender, 4 Ounce. Now I am really confused.
@meganhuff. I have used pre-seed for a few cycles now. Hope it works for you and that you get your BFP this month.

@katyfootballmomma just last night I was thinking how much I hate being this anxious about when we try, testing/charting, etc. I envy you. This is our 'first concerted effort' cycle after the loss, but 2nd cycle TTC after the loss. And I hate the pressure and anxiety. So I decided we're doing the SMEP, loosely.
CD 12- my boobs feel heavy, too. Increased CM the last few days. Started using Preseed last night BD'ing, so I can't genuinely judge my CM now. I hate Preseed. I feel like a leaky faucet! OPK was negative, but Test line is steadily increasing compared to yesterday.
Disclaimer: 2nd cycle after loss so my cycles are still getting back to my normal. So I'm still trying to get back to 'normal'
Praying for yours and everyone's BFP this cycle.

@neomasie im very sorry to hear about your loss hun. I pray for you me and. Every woman in our group that we get our bfp. To each is their. Own in terms. Of testing/charting/bbt charting don't get me wrong I do cp check every day lol I would do opk but I know I would forget lol maybe I will try in the near future.
I realize that we may never conceive. I pray everyday for our little addition. I get psyched every month symptom spot like nobody's business. But with our age Its clear to me that our chances are slim to none. Can you say wow Katy is being a bit negative? Sounds like it I know. But I'm not. I'm trying not to get my hopes up be disappointed month after month, deal with the heartache that my df and I face at the beginning of each month. I have physically cried in my car while by myself, a cry that most of us know what it sounds like. My arms ache to hold our baby. I just hope and pray that df has strong enough swimmers to be able to catch that egg. I would use pressed however I am very liery about using internal products because I have one kidney and prone to kidney infections. I do get stressed when we don't bd and I know I'm in my fertile window lol. FX baby dust hun!! Rootin for ya!

@katyfootballmomma Thank you for your kind words. and I 100% understand what you're saying and where you are coming from in regards to your journey. I hope I didn't come off insensitive using the phrase 'i envy you'.
After you elaborated, I understand you're approach to TTC and there is nothing negative or wrong about it. This is such a difficult and taxing process. We need to do whatever we need to, to try and guard our hearts, relationships and stay sane.
As corny as it may sound, miracles do happen! Sometimes something great comes out of what once looked impossible.
