Biological Clock

Biological Clock

I didn't believe in the biological clock, but now I'm a believer. I miscarried in March.  At the time I wasn't TTC, but when I found out I was pregnant I accepted it as God's will.  I had been off the pill for a couple of weeks.  Then, when I miscarried my heart broke.  I never thought seriously about being a mom.  I'm in my mid twenties and my life has been so rich with school, travel and partying.  I adore my husband and he shared my general sentiment about life.  Now, all I can think about is TTC.  I don't think my thoughts or life will ever be the same.  Today I'm 32 days into my cycle with no AF, so I hope you ladies can send me some baby dust.  I think I may have had implantation bleeding on day 30 in which I got one  thick drop of blood.  I've had no bleeding since then.

Here's lots of babydust********************************
I hope you get preggers soon again but be careful. I got pregnant in early March, very unexpected, and I was shocked but 3 days later I started bleeding and m/c. After the DR. told me I can TTC again at anytime I was obsessed with having another baby right away that it put a strain on my relationship with my DH. That's all I would think about, I bought OPT and watched every sign and signal. It was crazy. Well, I got a BFP again in early May, after one AF, and I was thrilled but DH was so scared I'd m/c again. Well, I did a week later. I was so hurt!! I think my body wasn't ready yet, even though my mind was. I am now back to my old self and just letting things happen. I have a DS already though, and that makes it easier to deal with the loss, so I'm sorry that you had to go through it. I am only 29 years old so I still have plenty of time! Take it easy, and it will happen again!!! I think you should take a HPT in a few days and hopefully you'll see a BFP!!! Good Luck and lots more babydust******************************************************

Hello, I understand exactly how you feel, I'm 24 years old, just finished my masters degree, and just completed my first year of teaching, just been married for a year, and have been ttc for about 5 months. I have an 8 year old daughter that I had at 16 and with to many odds against me I managed to conquer most of the goals I've set. At 16 I never really got to enjoy being pregnant, and from that moment until about January, I'd never really thought about it until my hubby mentioned it, and it was off for the races! I posted on an earlier thread, that I had an infection and that really messed with my cycle, so we weren't able to concieve (conceive). Finally my cycle is back to normal, and I'm driving myself crazy, because of being really anxious and can't wait, and I really don't want to see  negative result. I think your biological clock has started to tick very loudly simply, because you've done it all, what's left but the biggest and greatest accomplishment/goal...Motherhood. Good Luck to you, and dust to you. I hope all works out for you!

I wish you the best in TTC, and hope you get pregnant again soon. I'm so sorry for your loss too. I'm 28 now and have been married for 2 years. When we got married, we weren't planning to have children for about 3 or 4 years. We both love to travel and my DH was going to be starting his PH D. Then I got pregnant very unexpectantly in April 2005, it ended in a m/c too, but that really nailed down in me that I wanted to have babies and not wait the 3 or 4 years I thought I would want to wait for. So we started ttc in jan 2006 and am pregnant again now, no problems this time, I am 22 weeks now. All I can say is that things change and so do our desires for children etc. DH just finished first year of PH D so we will be living very simply and probably won't be able to travel much for a few years, but it definitely is worth it if we get a healthy baby in Oct.

What is "Baby Dust" ?

Maybe I need some of it.

It's hard to ttc when your husband is always too tired for the BD.  Last night was my "big night," when I was most fertile.  Did we BD?  No.  =(

Baby Dust must be good, so I'll give you some too.

It's day 33 and nothing.  I don't really think I could be preggers because my breasts are not sore.  Any thoughts on this?  I will test around day 42 if AF hasn't showed up.  Maybe I'm just having a really long cycle because it's the second cycle since the m/c.

Here's some extra babydust for you********************************
I'm so sorry you might have missed your most fertile day! I hate it when DH get to tired to BD, they should want to do it all the time, there men right? Don't they think about it every minute? LOL :) I was lucky enough that my DH attacked me last night to BD. I wasn't gonna even bother since we fought the day before. I even told him I was O'd and he still didn't get scared, usually he does. I think he wants a another baby just as much as me. I've had 2 m/c in the past 4 months. Well, Good Luck to you, try getting DH to BD tonight, maybe there's still some chance.

Ive had two mc, have two children, and am currently pg.  I am 25.  I totally understand the change of feelings.  After my  mc in 02/06, I felt like I didnt care if I ever had another child.  Now Im frantically worried that something will go wrong!!  Tomorrow is my 7w us when they will look for the hb. Everyone keep me in your prayers!!  I hope you will concieve (conceive) soon, and Im sure yuo and your dh will be thrilled.  The fact taht he was scared you would mc just shows how emotionally invested he is in the whole thing!!  Baby dust to you and all ttcers!!

Congrats on the future pregnancy!!! Hope you have a happy and healthy 9 months :) Just try not to think about the negative things that can happen during your pregnancy! With my second m/c, I became my old self and stopped obsessing about getting preggers again. I have one 22 month old son at home, I want to focus on him right now, but we are TTC, but we are like, if it happens it happens. But, this time I'm not telling anybody until after the 7 week mark. Their not sensitive towards you after you m/c twice.  I hope all turns out good and you will be holding your 3rd baby in no time!!! Take Care.....Lots of STICKY babydust to you*********************

baby dust to all!!  I am 36 and in week 30.  I have a 16 yr dd.  I have had one m/c.  It took us 7mths after m/c and my dh and i started to stress after 3mths of ttc.  Bd-ing just wasnt as fun anymore...it was work.  well, we did a few things to lighten it up but we both just wanted a baby.  finally when it did happen, I know the bd-ing was one of two times...we were doing it because it was time...  I didnt even care that it was not intimate and sexy, somehow I knew it was gonna work.  Your body will know when it is time.  you can see from all of us here, it does happen.  so sorry for everyones losses.  :)

I never thought i would have a miscarriage let alone 2. My cycle is always regular and on day 28 i usually have a period. However i am on day 32 and still no period. I am so worried. I did a pregnancy test yesterday and it was negative.
