I have another question! (Can you tell I’m avoiding clearing my work inbox like the plague)

What vitamins is everyone taking?

I’m currently on:
Pregnancy vitamin with folic acid (as methyl folate)
Vit D
Vit B12
Omega 3
Zinc
Vitamin C

DH is on zinc, Vit D and Vit C.

I’ve been reading Vitamin B6 is also really good, and CoQ10 - anyone with any knowledge on that?! It’s all to add to my long list to chat to my consultant about on Thursday!!

Thanks @ValidUser!
Well my amazon order of clearblue OPKs and some pregnancy tests arrived let's start again! X

Thanks for the new thread @ValidUser!

I'm Cycle 9 and 10dpo...planning to test on Friday (13dpo) if no AF.

@MrsLBear @ValidUser thanks for the chart appreciation guys! This is my first month temping so I wasn't really sure what to expect.

@ELW85 yes it's me! And ooo I'm excited for you! It definitely taught me some new bits and it's what convinced me to start temping. I'm not sure there's much on vitamins, but SO MUCH on temping!

@LikeTheFruit welcome back - love your style re: period treats - epic! Glad to hear it wasn't so painful, and very interesting about the piercing.

@starkid I totally know what you mean. I never for one minute thought it would take this long!

In fun news I now have backache and a cold sore. Yay.

@ValidUser - Woo! Do you know if your trigger shots are going to affect the length of your cycles at all?

BTW I'm Cycle 11, CD 17 (swear I was cycle 10, but looking at clue i miscounted at some point along the way! great..)

starkid · 04/06/2019 13:35

How did that last thread get filled up so fast? Feel like I only posted on it twice haha

@orangeloo- that;s interesting that she conceived doggy-style with a tilted cervix/pelvis... definitely something to bear in mind! Might try and alternate between that and missionary just in case, all my bits n bobs inside moved around after my last surgery so wouldn't surprise me if something of mine is wrong (again another thing I hope to find out in my scans etc.).

Who knew getting pregnant could be such a conundrum?! Seems to be so natural and easy and dangerously quick everywhere you look!

LikeTheFruit · 04/06/2019 13:34

Hey thanks for new thread @ValidUser

I'm CD 5 of cycle 6. This AF was a LOT heavier than the last 5 so hoping that means positive things for his month. Interestingly I got a couple of new ear piercings after my last cycle, one being a rook, which I'd put off because of TTC. I had read online it could decrease period pain and I had hardly any this month. Probably a fluke but who knows.

My AF treat this month was booking a weeks all inclusive for me and DH to Majorca later this month. Can't wait.

Congratulations for any BFPs I've missed!!
Good luck to any testers for this week

@Lozzlepop I'll continue to test daily, but won't believe anything I might see until next Monday!

Thanks @ValidUser xx

Thank you so much for organising us all @ValidUser :)

@Cupcakesandglitter - you’re not out just yet; I’ve got everything crossed for you!

@MrsH497 - sorry you’ve had some rubbish ‘friends’ - not worthy of you if they’ve just walked away. At least you can press on without wasting any energy on them now!

@purplefig - is it you with the TCOYF book? I’ve ordered myself one as I’m quite curious about what she’s got to say about vitamins and temps!

MrsEG · 04/06/2019 13:07

Thanks for the new thread!! Can’t believe how quickly we get through them haha!
