I'm CD1 of cycle 2 TTC #1 so thought I'd start a new thread for anybody in the same situation who didn't get their April BFP.

I had a MMC found on a scan at 9.5weeks after seeing HB at 7 weeks 🙁 I had SMM on the 19th March but no luck in my first month and AF got me today. Normal cycles are 28days so I hope to be testing around the 20th May. This month I will be tracking ovulation using CB connected and trying out Preseed for the first time hoping this helps towards my 🌈 but tonight I'll just be having a G&T 💁🏾‍♀️

@2020wish definitely enjoy the wine and evening with your partner. Hopefully soon you won't be able to drink at all xx

Renna · 11/05/2020 21:20

@2020wish aw that's cute. I'd personally have a couple glasses... I had a few over the weekend .. feel like it relaxes me 😁 and got to enjoy yourself still xx dont think a couple glasses is harmful xx have a good eve 😁 xx

2020wish · 11/05/2020 20:49

Dh has just rang me saying work has gave him tomorrow off and he’s on his way home and wanted to get us a bottle of wine but I promised myself I’d be good in my tww and try not to drink Confused this limbo is hard lol he gets one day off a week lol

Renna · 11/05/2020 20:43

@2020wish I hope it's your month too hun xxx

2020wish · 11/05/2020 20:35

I know everything is such a mine field. If I’m not lucky this month I am just going to stick to my flock acid, b6, vit d and calc Fluor and cup and see how I go lol I really hope this is my month though

Renna · 11/05/2020 20:17

Thanks hun @2020wish yeah I saw a lot of what you said about l'arginine..the reviews and studies .. seemed to have good results and bad ones ! .
I've also seen ladies say they got BFP first month after not taking all the extra stuff and just taking folic acid. But sometimes you just wonder if its coincidence.

I kinda feel like every month I'm not lucky I want to try something new the next month. Like might try the cup next month If not lucky this cycle . Think it just makes me feel like I'm being pro active about it. Xx .
Thanks for the info 😘 I may stick with my seven seas or just get some simple folic acid next cycle as that's the most important thing xxx

@SmileyT yeah mine drops a day or so before and i know its coming then ..just dtd so thats night one done and dusted 😎 x

SmileyT · 11/05/2020 20:04

@Hayleylou89 yeah mine actually dropped only slightly for the morning after I got my peak and then shot up the day after that. But I think everyone's charts are slightly different. I always see on NC charts that it plots as if the temp drops slowly towards AF but all the charts I've seen appear to drop the morning of your period, does your slowly drop so you have a clue beforehand or not really?

@2020wish ooh interesting you say that about l'arginine as it is in the preconception pills 🤯 think I should do some more research, this ttc lark is such a mine field... like you say too much of a good thing can be bad and I honestly have no idea what my levels of anything are 🙈

@renna it’s completely up to you. Everyone is different but as long as you check ovulation you should be ok even if u ovulate late.

The l’arginine I googled a bit about it after we talked about it on here and it has conflicting results regarding female fertility. Some studies show that it improves egg quality but then other studies show it, or too much of it may actually affect egg quality negativity. Read a few reviews on it and some woman stated that years of not being successful ttc and even after 2 rounds of ivf that failed she started researching some of the things the fertility specialist put her on. On of which was l’arginine and she also read the studies about it maybe decreasing female fertility so she stopped taking to and even up falling pregnant naturally after. Could of been a coincidence. But that’s why I decided not to take it for now. Reviews say it’s good for vegetarians as they can lack it but most people do get enough. I didn’t google to hard work some of those reviews and studies are pretty easy to find. Right now I’m taking seven seas and then biotin, b6, extra folic acid and calc Fluor 6c x

Renna · 11/05/2020 19:42

Thanks ladies x x
Well I have the pregnacare in my cupboard to use but I'm not sure I want to use it for next cycle now, if I'm not lucky this month.. as like @2020wish you have said I've seen lots of ladies say on mumsnet that it lengthened their cycle etc and mine is pretty regular so dont wanna mess with that 🤔🤔 but I kind of wanted to try something different see if it helps next month if AF comes.. 🤔🤔 decisions decisions. And I thought pregnacare might be better as it has more in it and higher doses of everything. Like it has l'arginine in it which seven seas doesnt .. which I see some if you referred to before:)
I'll attach pics of ingredients if any one interested . First one pregnacare second purple ones is seven seas xxxx

Hayleylou89 · 11/05/2020 17:30

@SmileyT look at this for a temp drop though 🤷🏽‍♀️ it dropped quite a bit this morning, but just shows somethings happening with my body and ovulation i guess x x

@Hayleylou89 hopefully it comes soon. I love mine lol put it straight in and lie down for 15/20 minutes then get up to loo and do what I need around the house for a bit and completely no mess lol

Hayleylou89 · 11/05/2020 16:53

@renna I know good job i did start testing a bit earlier :) .... i only ordered the ferti lily saturday so hoping it arrives soon, i emailed company ARDO and said I am due to ovulate really soon thinking it would be friday/sat not this soon 🤷🏽‍♀️ haha they said they will prioritise my order 😂...so fingers crossed it comes! X

2020wish · 11/05/2020 16:49

@Renna sorry dunno why it auto corrected to Renan

SmileyT · 11/05/2020 16:48

@VP91x @Hayleylou89 yep a temp drop in the day before your ovulation is normal 🙌🏾

@Renna I've got pregnacare supps in my Amazon basket for next month, at the moment I'm taking like 6 different pills but think I can get most of it in one, but no advice on the difference sorry 😊

Renan I used to use pregnacare pre conception vits but I noticed they lengthened my cycles and made my af really late. So I moved to seven seas. Although when I was pregnant I used pregnacare

Renna · 11/05/2020 16:41

Hi all xx just had some pre pregnancy vits arrived. Decided to order the pregnacare ones as I've been using seven seas for months since before I got pg in December. I thought I'd look into trying pregnacare instead as I noticed it does have more ingredients in each pill.
Which one does everyone take and their experience with each of them ? :) xxx

Hayleylou89 · 11/05/2020 16:25

@VP91 thank u, the cup should be here this week so ill hopefully get use out of it at-least once before ovulation on weds 🙏 lets hope so! My ava still hasnt arrived 🙄 ... ah it was you aswell @2020wish that got the peak after the circle like me! So strange we could easily miss it if we didn't decide to test twice x
