TTC after MC - June 2020 (Part 3)

@HE88 I drink morissons own (I like it) or Tesco’s own xx

@VP91x yeah feeling all good now 😊 nice dinner and more grapefruit juice 😂 ooh so frustrating with those opks that it just goes from faint line to peak pretty sharpish so it's the waiting game, hope you get it tomorrow xx

@Jazper im in agreement with @Wishingfornumber2 I think the left is the LH and right is oestrogen I've attached a pic of mine from low to peak (I've never got any flashies assuming my oestrogen is high when I start testing 🤷🏾‍♀️)

@HE88 sounds like a good plan for you just taking a bit of a step back and letting your body relax they do say stress is the worst thing for ttc but seems impossible to avoid once you're in the rabbit hole 🙈 I drink the golden grapefruit from Tropicana or Tesco own x

@HE88 I have suspected the same regarding my lining. I started taking vitamin e, l arginine and aspirin

@HE88 I literally feel the same xx I'm due AF next couple days and I think she is coming tbh and feel so deflated and fed up TTC journey now. I feel like if I'm not lucky this cycle I may not even do opks or anything either . Which will be weird as I was even doing them the few months before I got pg before MC so done then throughout.. but my cycles are so regular I know I get peak around CD 13 to 14 so I will have an idea when to vamp up DTD . I tell myself I'm not stressed by it but deep down thing I am so may not be helping xxx

Thanks @VP91x I'll give the POM juice a try then can you drink throughout your full cycle? Also I've been taking pink grapefruit juice it's Morrisons own it's pretty rank do any of ladies who drink this have a different one to try? Xx

@IWM20 huge huge congrats to you, praying and hoping you have a healthy pregnancy :)
Your dates are also sooo similar to mine, you're giving me so much hope! X

@Bellabubble hi hun how did you know your pup has a UTI ?like what symptoms? I'm unsure if shelby has a UTI or if shes having a potty training issue all of a sudden. But I took her to vets anyway and theyve sent off a urine sample. Is bella on antibiotics for it? Xx

@VP91x also - I’m considering starting the POM juice - is that one the best because its 100% pomegranate? How much do you drink a day? I was wondering whether it would be cheaper to buy the feuit and blend it 😂 the thingns we do on the trc journey! I’m not sure I can manage grapefruit juice yet!! xx

@Banbi I have been exactly the same! Since mc I have started my cycles with spotting - except this month! This is my 4th cycle - although af is due fri-sun as I range from 27-29day cycles - so there is time for spotting to show!

@VP91x Thank you! I’m considering getting an early detection test on prime for the weekend in case I cave - given that af could appear over the course of 3 days (damn her!!) I just had to put Bella’s ear drops in and she looked horrified, like she couldn’t understand what was happening and was just wanting it to end! Felt like a mean fur baby mummy lol!

@IWM20 it still doesn't feel real to me either!!! After a MMC last time, I don't think it will until the 12 week scan to be honest...

@VP91x I'm doing well thanks!! No real symptoms aside from fatigue. Trying to keep exercising and eating healthily. Got my booking appointment with the midwife booked in in a few weeks, eeeek!

Hi ladies how are we all today?

Congratulations to those that got bfps today xx

Sorry to those that af came xx

Welcome to those of you that are new, sorry for your losses xx

So I have a melt down on Monday and adamant that I was giving up on ttc but I've had a couple of days to think it through and I'm not ready yet. Af is due in a day or so and going to try a more relaxed approach. I'm not going to use opks I think they maybe adding stress without realising it. I'm still going to carry on with my supplements pre conception vitamin, omega 3 with added evening primrose and calc fluor. Are there any supplements anyone those of that helps with thickening your uterine lining I don't know for definite that my lining is thin but my periods are always super light so thought maybe helping to thicken it a bit more would help.

Also @Jazper forgot to say I have got my DH on the Pom juice now 🤣

@IWM20 congratulations!!

@Jazper just catching up with the thread and saw you said about the CB opk lines. I have asked this before too but they don’t work as the normal lines. I think I read that the left hand one nearest the arrow is in relation to LH but could be wrong. I have been taking some photos of mine this month to compare. I haven’t had a peak but the left line has been getting darker. But again don’t really know what it means! Have attached photo of negative one at the start of testing and the one I had today. X

Thank you so much for your love and we'll wishes everyone 💕

@wellhurrahandhuzzah I think I should be due around the 25th Feb 😊. I'm also going to be sticking around on here, one because it's the most supportive thread I've ever come across but also it just doesn't feel real yet! Xx

@VP91x
I’m really not sure! I was doing them between 10am and 12am so probably every 2.5 hours - I think I will just have to do less next month. Followed all the instructions about leaving it to room temp etc but then started googling and worrying about missing it. Will try and be more relaxed next month x

@VP91x that is not reassuring me 😂😂
Not to worry, I asked trusty google 🤓 and apparently it’s fine to do. Although we have already decided that tomorrow is missionary 😂
Plus, I’d be quite concerned if they all fell out, they’d have needed to be more than dopey 🤪

@IWM20 congratulations!!

Hello! @VP91x Sadly OPK have all been negative! Only discovered them this cycle and got a bit obsessive (6 a day 😭) haven’t had any positives yet x
