I've got a bottle of oral drops to try. Thought it may help with PMS if nothing else. It says on the side it's not to be used if trying for a baby though.... Still, after 2 years what difference will it make?

After 2 years ttc #1, irregular periods and days and days of pms I gave AC a try and was pregnant within 2 months.
Started taking it a month ago, this time having only been ttc #2 for 3 months and mostly to help with pms. Got what I thought was awful pms which appeared to begin as soon as if ov'd, thought I'd made a huge mistake trying AC again. Turns out I'm pregnant again! 
No.1 wasn't harmed at all, pregnancy was a breeze and he's now a happy and healthy 5yo. It's very early days with no.2 but I stopped taking it as soon as there was a BFP.
There's been some research into its use for fertility so I would think that providing you stop taking it as soon as you get BFP it would be fine. It basically stabilises your hormones throughout your cycle by stimulating progesterone production. Obviously the hormonal balance changes when you get pregnant which is probably why it's best to let your body do the work on its own when you get pregnant.
