The long awaited April bus for those penis-dragon-worshipping, green pom pom waving, non symptom spotting ladies who will get their BFP this month!

Lindamagoo The cough mixture is nasty, absolutely disgusting. But if someone told me that eating frogs eyeballs may get my my BFP - I'd probably consider it - AND I HATE FROGS
I'm taking 2 table spoons every morning and following it up with copious amounts of water because water is good for me and not because im trying to get rid of the taste from my mouth

Possible TMI alert
I've not really ever been blessed in the cm department and so have always used lubes etc. Just bought Conceive Plus for this cycle too. But 4 days of the cough mixture and dtd has been pretty smooth no pun intended
I'll keep you updated to see if it keeps working. I'll stop taking it on CD13 cos that's probably when I'll ov. Aside from ttc, I'm going to have to find a more permanent solution to my lack of CM

Welcome MummyTwo85

Hellooo, can I join too please?

Metalhead, ttc#2, cycle 5 but first one post mc so no idea when (or indeed if) I will ovulate, but hopefully BFP should be due around mid to late April.

Currently on CD1 and first AF post mc is certainly a bitch pain-wise... still, I've never been so glad to see her as it means we can start trying again! Smile

Woop, we have passengers!

I'll get on with a stats list later on tonight (will have to boot up the old laptop as my iPad is just too faffy when it comes to cutting and pasting).

Forgot to add my most important detail to my own stats...my BFP due date! Duh!

Spotti, TTC #1, cycle 4, BFP due somewhere towards the end of April (purposely not taking note of the date...the intention being that if I don't know then I can't obsess or test early ).

Anyone in the mood for a penis dragon? I'm sure I can find my favourite on google...

Or there's this one...it's a bit rude (and ewww to all that 'dragon dribble' in her hair!) but it's a new one! Anything goes, right?

Come one, come all: hop onboard the penis dragon bus and hold on tight for your BFP in April!

MrBsMrsB I am glad to hear the guafywhatsit is working for you! I have just bought some cheap Sainsburys mixture. It says it contains cherry flavouring so hoping it might be swallow-able! I used to get lots of cm pre-TTC but annoyingly now, hardly any and it's never ewcm.

What are all your plans for getting a BFP this cycle? I'll post my 'to do' list here!

  • Green tea every morning
  • WellWoman capsule every evening
  • Cough mixture every day from end of AF to ov
  • DH taking WellMan Conception every evening
  • Grapefruit juice every day up to ov
  • Pineapple juice every day after ov
  • Pre-seed lube
  • CB Digi OPK
  • Reflexology in the week before ov
  • Vitamin B6 every day to try to lengthen luteal phase (currently 9 days)


Any other ideas? As you can see, I'm open to suggestions!

Can you have grapefruit and pineapple juice or does it have to be the actuall fruit?

Report
MissMrsMummy · 17/03/2014 16:44

Good plan Poly

I'd like to know that too Linda - not sure? If juice is ok, it'll probably have to be the pure juice, rather than 'juice drink' (from concentrate). More expensive!

DH and I need a special TTC fund putting to one side. We should have asked for contributions towards it at our wedding! Such a costly venture, lol.

Hello all. Feeling shit to be here tbh but here goes....

Nottalotta ttc #1 C11. Bfp 11th april.

AF got me today a day early, giving me an even shorted cycle than normal. 24 days. I'm sure this must be too short?

Phoned drs to make an appointment but they won't book me in. I have to phone 8.30 every morning until i get one on the day. Its shit.
