Hi all!

I haven't been on these boards for a while. Had two miscarriages in past 6 months, one at 11weeks in January this year.

Told the same as a lot of you "it's maybe just bad luck"

I started taking Agnus Castus drops when after my first AF post msc, and noticed within a week that my hormonal chin spots left and my skin was flawless!

I got a BFP this morning (as it's my 3rd pregnancy in 6 or 7 months I knew the early symptoms so thought it might be)

Has anyone else had a BFP and kept taking Agnus Castus? There's so many conflicting reviews!

Also if anyone has irregular cycles or PCOS I definitely recommend it 😁😁

kaytee87 · 03/04/2019 12:57

@Broodyaf oh no. Could they try clomid?

kaytee87 · 03/04/2019 12:56

This month we've DTD on CD's 7, 9, 11, 14, 16, 18 & 19. I ovulated either cd 18 or 19.
On CD 20 now, plan to DTD on CD 21 & 24, hoping there's some truth in sperm assisting implantation.
I'm taking 20mg Iron, 1000mg vitamin c, b-complex 100, 4000iu vitamin d.
I really need to lose some weight too, my thyroid is right on the bottom of normal so I'm hoping I can convince my GP to trial some medication.
I hope that will be enough for a Christmas baby 🤞

Broodyaf · 03/04/2019 12:52

He just rang with blood results. Everything else normal but my progesterone levels suggest I didn't ovulate.

Said the range for progesterone is 16-28

kaytee87 · 03/04/2019 12:51

@Broodyaf sorry, I'm not sure what 'normal' is. What did your gp say?

Broodyaf · 03/04/2019 12:24

Hoping some of you can help...

21 day bloods came back. Progesterone was 9.8 ??

MrsHP1986 · 03/04/2019 12:06

Hello ladies, hoping it's ok to join :)

We are TTC #2, have been trying for 2 cycles so far and hoping April is our month. Feel a little silly as we've not been trying for very long in comparison to others but we conceived our first extremely quickly and so after two months of no BFP I feel a bit deflated.

Currently on CD6...

thosethreewords · 03/04/2019 11:13

I find it annoying when people say this. Even if they mean well, it's just patronising!

lori2019 · 03/04/2019 09:45

So after my weird day 18 bleed I went to gp - she's sending me for day 2 & Day 21 blood tests.

She advised I drop the opk for a few months, try to relax and not focus on conception... easier said than done mate!

She's also referring me to Ob/Gyn - she thinks a check up is something every woman should have. (I'm not NHS btw) so very lucky i guess

thosethreewords · 03/04/2019 08:25

Day off work today. No DH to distract me. 1DPO.
Must not spend the whole day googling maternity wardrobe/ baby buys...

Bab1990 · 02/04/2019 20:50

Welcome ladies🙂 @kaytee87 I dont have sex dreams during fertile week but I know when im about to ovulate because I get extra horny🙈🙈🤣🤣
Baby dust to all💐💐

thosethreewords · 02/04/2019 19:27

@Wishful30 pleased it's not too painful for you today! I really hope you don't need the IVF board xxx

Wishful30 · 02/04/2019 08:15

Morning ladies, I'm back 🙄

Had my hysteroscopy yesterday. Fortunately not too painful today. Doc saw me after briefly and said my lining looked like a fluffy carpet... 🤷🏻‍♀️ she didn't seem to be bothered but said she gave it a scrape anyway.

I'm really hoping this helps, but it's looking like I'll be with you for a few more months and then off to the ivf pages 😞

Wishing everyone the best of luck this month! X

thosethreewords · 02/04/2019 07:54

@kaytee87 yes! I do. This was my first sign this month that I was ovulating, I got that before my OPK and EWCM!!

kaytee87 · 02/04/2019 07:33

Do you all continue sex after ov? Apparently sperm can help implantation.

Anyone else have sex dreams during ovulation? Blush

Peachyx2505 · 02/04/2019 07:26

Welcome to all the new ladies. 🤞 for you! X

I think I'm just entering the fertile window, just based on my previous cycles. Definitely trying the relaxed approach this month. I'm not obsessing (like previous months) and feel strangely calm about it all.

Looking forward to seeing some bfps! Xx

helpasisterout · 01/04/2019 21:05

TTC#1 currently CD32, AF should have come at CD23 accordingly to glows analysis of my info log but no sign - negative tests and negative ovulation strips! Sigh.. why must I be so impatient! Only had implant taken out beginning Feb so suppose it will be a while yet.

Good luck to everyone!

MrsM18 · 01/04/2019 10:24

Morning ladies. Can I join in?

TTC baby #2
CD1 (the witch came this morning!) x

Bab1990 · 01/04/2019 09:46

Welcome ladies. @Teaonthebedsheets I’ve done the same with my tests🙈 The OH has hid them somewhere haha! X
Baby dust to all💐

Teaonthebedsheets · 01/04/2019 09:07

Thanks Proudmummy88, I hope this month is your month. I know the feeling of testing too early. Also going to try to wait until I'm late this month! I've given all my tests to my husband and told him not to release them until the 11th. Blush

Hi @Teaonthebedsheets welcome and also welcome to the tww by the sounds of it. Not long now to wait for you to find out. Although it feels like a lifetime 😭😂😘

Hi @Lorna2019 It sounds like it could happen this month!! I am the same. I would rather wait than test too early. Would rather be a few days later of my normal cycle before even thinking about testing because low and behold, AF shows within an hour like you say!! I really hope it's a BFP for you!

Teaonthebedsheets · 01/04/2019 07:44

Can I join too?

TTC #2
Cycle #2
CD #19
Period due 12th April

Not tracking ovulation but I think I'm 4dpo.

Lorna2019 · 31/03/2019 22:41

Can I join?
34
TTC #1
My first ‘proper’ attempt at TTC, so my first cycle.
CD29

My cycle is usually 26 days but I have been known to go to 34. Terrified of taking a pregnancy test as I’ve been in this situation before where AF doesn’t turn up for 30 days+ and the second I pee on that stick and see the BFN, AF turns up to celebrate within hours.
Had loads of symptoms but can’t tell if it’s just AF making her arrival known or if, just if, there might be a BFP on its way.

We’ve not used contraception for about a year now so hoping that 2019 is the year.

Charlotte9876 · 31/03/2019 20:53

Thanks that's reassuring to know @kaytee87 . I'm just impatient to get my cycles back in order after pumping myself with hormones for so long!

🤞 the supplements will work for us this month!
