What stage are you at?

[adgal]

I am curious as to who is at what stage?  Are you currently pregnant?  If so, how far along are you, do you know if it's a boy or a girl? And if you don't mind, tell us your age as well.  Or are you currently ttc or in the 2ww?  Tell us something about yourself so we can all get to know each other a bit better.  I'll start -

I am 41 (will be 42 in January).  I have an 8 month old baby boy (a MedHelp baby!) and am currently ttc no. 2.  I am in the 2ww.  I am a Canadian, happily married and have been a member of MedHelp for almost 4 years now.

Okay...I'll play. I'm Tricia. Turned 42 in July. I had my tubes tied when my third child, Ian, was born in July 2009. As many of you know, he passed away from a brain tumor at eight weeks old. Through scrimping and saving and the generosity of many people (quite a few of them from this board!), I had tubal reversal surgery in February 2010. In April my HSG test showed that the one tube they could repair was blocked (the other tube was too damage by endometriosis to repair - and I didn't even know I had endometriosis). We stopped trying to get pregnant after that, and have been through some very rough times. After talking to some people who were also told they had blocked tubes but went on to conceive, I convinced my husband last month to start trying to get pregnant again. He's been working out of town, so it hasn't worked out too well. But, this month, we BD'd on Monday and I ovulated on Thursday last week. So, I suppose - if miracles can happen - pregnancy is a possibility. So, right now I'm in my TWW.

Hi, I'm Lisa and live in Ohio. Recently turned 43 and found this site when I became pregnant in April 2010 (by surprise).  Unfortunately had a miscarriage at 17weeks.  So trying again, due to my age was referred to the RE (again) have 2 daughters 14+16 conceived with fertility drugs and here I am doing it again.  Yikes.  Anyway we discovered I have Factor V Ledien disorder so when I am pregnant again will be taking daily Heparin injections to sustain the pregnancy.  So I am at the ready to ovulate stage, had U/S this am and 2 follicles just about ready, take my trigger shot tomorrow then TIC.  Wish me luck!!!

Hi my name is Cassie and I'm addicted to choco...oh wait...wrong thing LOL ;)

I'm 33, married for 11 years, I have 5 kids - 2 boys (6 & 2) and 3 girls (14, 7 & 4 wks) I also have 3 angel babies-1 was a 38 wk stillborn, the other two were lost at 9 wks and 5 wks.  

My youngest two are medhelp babies :)

I've been a member of medhelp since August 2007 and I'm a Community Leader for the Pregnancy 18-34 Forum.  

I have been fortunate that I have not had any major complications with my pregnancies with the exception of my first.  At 40 wks 3 days they discovered I had NO amniotic fluid left, she was breech and was small for her gestation age.  I delivered her by emergency c-section, she only weighed 4 lbs 15 oz and was 18 1/4" long.  I'm proud to say that she is now a very healthy 14 year old.  The rest of my pregnancies were delivered via VBAC.
