I can’t think of anything to write… just waiting to see what the ultrasound says. I am going to try to maintain equanimity if it turns out that I am ovulating on the wrong side to try this month. After all, there is only a 50/50 chance. I think part of me will be grateful to push the worrying off for another month.
But I turn 33 next Saturday and I suddenly feel the threat of “advanced maternal age” bearing down on me. (And they count your age at due date, not at conception, don’t they?!) Plus over the past week I’ve gone from two regular gray hairs to five or six and I’m thinking it would be nice to get this gestating over before I have to start coloring.

Oh, Cat.
Happy early birthday!
Ha, I was advanced maternal age for my second pregnancy. No one ever mentioned it except to offer more prenatal testing. But unfortunately I have too many gray hairs to count!
I hope the ultrasound goes the way you want it to!
If I get pregnant this cycle I’ll be ONE MONTH away from 35 if I carry to term. And the hubby talks about having another one. Ha ha ha.
P.S. I’m getting my hair colored on Saturday. I own LOTS of gray. I should get off of my butt and post a pic of my bangs. Lovely streak of gray in there. *sigh* Getting old can suck, huh?
Tons of gray. I’ll be 35 in July, but my OB ordered testing for “advanced maternal age” for both kids.
I thought the good tube could bend to the egg on the other side? Or is that a myth? The stuff we learn through this process…
I know that aprehensive ‘wait and see’ feeling well. I’m sorry your feeling your age. When I turned 37 I woke up and exclaimed that I was much closer to 40 than I felt comfortable with. My husband,who is 6 months older than me said “Yeah, welcome to my world.” I hope that your ovaries are cooperative and it’s on the non ectopic side.
