DH and I are both taking pre-conception vitamins and I no longer drink coffee. I am no 19 dpo and got a bfn this morning. Still waiting for AF to arrive. We are so hoping that we are pregnant, but only time will tell I guess. We are both going through the roller coaster of thinking "are we?" or "are we not"...quite upsetting at times.

As much as I have always wanted to have a family of my own, I was never in a secure and stable enough relationship for this to happen. So for me, i'll be 36 if I fall in the next 10 months, and DH will be 49...so I feel we are getting old. But these days, its all about your attitude as to how old you really are. Alot of women are having there first in their 30's.

I hope to be able to hear the stories of others and share in their joy, and hope that I can share my story with others and share in my joy when a BFP arrivs one day...hopefully sooner than later for all of us !!!
Hi lioness168,
At least you know that your hubby's counts are all normal, that must have been a relief. My OH is a year and a half younger than me, he is only 32 so am hoping everything is working as it should with him. Having said that his older brother has low sperm mobility and he and his wife conceived through IVF eventually. I think it is better to bring a child into a stable and loving relationship if possible (I know that it doesn't always work out that way) I don't think it matters to the child if you are that bit older especially once you are healthy. 19 dpo with no sounds good, but it is so frustrating to get . Are you temping or using OPKs? I am not doing either yet but am thinking I will start temping next month as I'm not sure if or when I'm even o-ing. Hoping that will turn into a for you. You are right it is a rollercoaster of emotions and I have only just started out on this TTC journey!

Polaris, thank you for your reply and words of encouragement. How are you going? I hope you get a BFP in the first month or so

I am now 20 DPO and didn't test this morning as we didn't want to see another BFN, we plan on going to the Drs on Tuesday if AF hasn't arrived by then. Over the past 2 - 3 days my bbs have gotten sorer and sorer and some blue veins are starting to appear, and there are no signs of AF, have the occassional CM, I hope this is a good sign. How is everyone else going with their BFP's?

I have been reading up on the net and other forums and I occasionally get hope that we may get a BFP as some ppl get them 2 weeks or more after AF is due. I also come across other sites/forums that depress me as I do not feel like I am 35 and read about the negatives that this can produce. So reading up on all this does scare me. I pray that we all get our BFP's soon!

Any advice or support is welcomed...sometimes things get a bit scary n matter how much I try and get on with everyday as there is not alot else you can do till either AF shows or a BFP.

Take care everyone, let us know how you are all going!

Thinking of you Polaris, all the best this month once has finished. How many months you been tcc for? I read somewhere that if you every 2 or 3 days during the entire cycle and within 3 - 6 months you'll be PG (as long as all fertility tests are fine - if you've had them done).

Any how, going to get some sleep, will keep you all updated when I find out what's happening. In the meantime, to all

Thank you. It is very early days for me, I just came off BCP in December after being on it for a very long time. Have wanted to have a baby for a few years but it has been on hold for various reasons. Pregnant in 3 to 6 months would be great!! I haven't had any fertility tests done as I've only just started TTC, hoping that all will work out OK!
