@Pol96 congratulations 🎉 so happy for you.

Pol96 · 22/08/2020 11:11

Hi girls.. Just wanted to update you all. We've just left our gender scan and we're having a little boy 💙💙💙 heard his little heartbeat and I just cried! Xxx

SarahTTC2020 · 22/08/2020 09:09

I'm on CD43 now so looks like I'm back to long ones. Doesn't seem like I ovulated this cycle. Does anyone else not ovulate every cycle?

Suki2020 · 20/08/2020 16:23

Thanks @Tink2019. How are you feeling now?

restingbface · 20/08/2020 16:09

@xoJellyBean I did 120, 120, 160, 200 & then I’ll do a final 200 tonight 🤞🏼
@Tink2019 that’s interesting! I might have to get some B6 now as well x

Tink2019 · 20/08/2020 15:14

@Suki2020

Hi ladies how are you all? Do any of you take vitamin b6 if so what dose do you take?
I took it the cycle I took Soy @Suki2020 - I took 50mg. Read it can push back ovulation for some people, so I only took it once I was sure I'd ovulated. No idea if it helped with the BFP but one of the bloods the hospital did the other day was progesterone and mine is apparently very good (I'm still taking it but reducing to every other day) so it may have done something x

Thanks @Tink2019

@restingbface I did have some headaches and felt very tired, had a really bad sleep. But I don't know if it was related to the soy.

@xoJellyBean I did cd 3-7 but I'm thinking it was more 4-8 now. 80, 80, 120, 160, 160. No idea if that was enough or even the right way of doing it!

@Elakiya yes I'm giving it a go!! My periods have just regulated so I'm hoping I don't go back to square 1.

@duckii what dose are you taking?? I've taken 3 times now, 80mg. Might not be enough 🧐

@SarahTTC2020 you might as well try it! So many positive stories around it so worth a try at least :)

@restingbface what dose did you take throughout?? My last dose is maybe tonight

restingbface · 20/08/2020 09:04

@xoJellyBean me also! Got my last dose tonight, I’m taking 200mg tonight. I haven’t had any side effects has anyone else?

Tink2019 · 20/08/2020 08:38

I'm good thank you @Elakiya - no more updates, I have another scan in a few weeks to see if there's a heartbeat as think they're still concerned about my very high pregnancy hormone levels, so I'm just anxiously waiting for that x

Fingers crossed for you @duckii!

SarahTTC2020 · 20/08/2020 08:36

@xoJellyBean I'm tempted as I'm.cd41 and 18dpo with no AF (have tested twice at 14/17dpo). Think maybe I didn't ovulate this cycle so taking something is tempting

duckii · 20/08/2020 08:35

@xoJellyBean

Is anyone taking soy this month?!🤪
Me! Taken my lost dose yesterday. Have you started taking it?
Elakiya · 20/08/2020 08:24

@xoJellyBean I shared @Tink2019 post on another thread and someone there is taking it. I myself haven’t I read that it’s not good for PCOS so I thought I’d just wait to be put on clomid. Are you trying it this month?

@Tink2019 How are you? Are there any updates on how baby is doing. I have my fingers crossed that everything goes well for you.

I'm feeling ok thank you @Suki2020 and @xoJellyBean. How odd, but good, it's just's suddenly stopped x

@hollywhooo I'd honestly take them with a pinch of salt because if you were still in your follicular phase a low level is good. I have irregular cycles so I booked in after I'd had a positive OPK and temps had risen as luteal phase tends to stay the same x

hollywhooo · 18/08/2020 18:00

Aww thanks girls thats reassuring. I’d have been day 16 when they did the test. They’ve said they cant do the day 21 tests due to how irregular i am. I’ll speak to the dr again tomorrow and see what she says.
Hope everyone is okay xxx

Suki2020 · 18/08/2020 16:19

Thanks @Tink2019. How are you feeling today? x

@Tink2019 was up again during the night but now it has stopped completely! Mind is racing now wish I never rang 😂 decided not to test in the end. How are you today?

@hollywhooo I apparently have low progesterone too! Although i didn't have tests but that's what my temps suggest apparently... why don't you look in to going private anyway? I think I would do that!

OP posts:
Tink2019 · 18/08/2020 15:26

@Suki2020 an internal ultrasound is what I had to have yesterday - it's honestly fine. Can completely understand that the waiting will be tough though. Good you're getting things ticked off though.

@hollywhooo assume they did the test on day 21 (or the equivalent if you have long cycles)? If not, the results will be meaningless. If they were done on the correct day have they said that they're low enough to be indicative of no ovulation? If so, a fertility specialist might give you Clomid. It's what I was prescribed but as you ladies know I decided to try the soy isoflavones first. I also took B6 after O to keep progesterone levels high (apparently it can help) x

hollywhooo · 18/08/2020 10:21

@xoJellyBean i hope you’re okay!!
I’m mega stressing. Had my blood test results this morning, they’re saying i’ve got low progestrone but giving me zero steps of what to do next and asked if i’m in a position to go private as my NHS referral is delayed due to covid. So fed up of being fobbed off. I do have private cover through work but not sure what it will cover. If anyone has any advice on how to increase my levels please let me know xx

SarahTTC2020 · 18/08/2020 10:03

@Suki2020 you will be fine, it'll be a nervous wait though I'm sure

I'm cd39 now and 16dpo and at the stage of popping to the loo every hour because I feel like AF has started 😔 very annoying I wish she would just hurry up so I can get started with a new cycle

Suki2020 · 18/08/2020 08:45

Hi ladies how are you all? I’m cd11 today. I have my ultrasound scan up the hospital this evening, and I’m starting to stress about it now. I have to have an ultrasound scan on outside with a full bladder and then an internal with an empty bladder 😬 then I have to wait until next wed for an appointment with my gynaecologist to tell me the results.

Suki2020 · 18/08/2020 08:40

@xoJellyBean oh no! Hope you are ok. Can the doctors give you anything for the pain?

Tink2019 · 18/08/2020 07:28

@xoJellyBean How are you feeling this morning? x
