Finally made it here!! 38 and BFP

I got a BFP on CD23. I know it's early. Waiting impatiently for the doctor's office to call me back with my blood test results and HCG level. MY dh and I are both 38 but he'll be 39 in a couple weeks.

Thank you for the welcome and congrats!

Congrats to allow of you as well!

I have a very terrible morning. For the last 3 mornings, I have woken up around 3 am with a terrible migraine. The first two of the mornings I didn't know I was pregnant so took my Relpax which I believe is one of those drugs that are too new to know what harm it can cause. Anyway, this morning, I knew I couldn't take it. I tried 2 tylenol, cup of coffee, shower, ice packs, vibrating head messager thing and the fingernails into the scalp methods. None of them worked. So it was a trip to the ER for me. Very long wait before I got my shot, probably 2 hours. I got Nubain and Phenergan. Got home and went through a constant cycle of drinking for excessive dry mouth, trip to the bathroom, back to sleep with a dream each time. I just got up 3:30 this afternoon. I know it's the Prometrium at night that is doing it. I don't want to take it tonight but don't want to risk miscarriage either. Pharmacys don't order meds on weekends because I want to get natural pregesterone that you have to keep in the fridge. Long painful day after such a good one yesterday finding out baby T. (Baby T because both boy and girl name I like starts with a T).

Welcome Kathijo! I just turned 39 and pregnant with my first. DH is 48 almost 49 (but has more energy than most people in general, wish I did).
