Recent MC - New cycles & trying again

@AMS19 oh what a shame acupuncture wasn’t what you hoped for. Mind you, will save you some money going forwards!!
@Pettylamby AMAZING!!! So happy for you! 🎉🎉 this really is turning into a lucky thread, makes me so happy and hopeful 🤞
@Ralala the sperm comment made me laugh!! My hubby said the same thing to me the other day - like he was some sort of super sperm machine ready to fire!! 🤣

@Cienega we did try last month but it turned out to be futile as I still had residual hcg in my blood 11 weeks post ercp despite perfect ovulation /temping. This is our first month therefore of trying with some actual level of hope.

@Cienega I'm so sorry what you are going through. My partner and I didn't plan to start trying straight away but when it came to it we did try but it didn't happen for us. In my first proper cycle post miscarriage and hoping this is the cycle.

I take a multi-vit which has folic acid in, and omega 3 and 100mg co-enzyme q-10. Also been seed cycling this month as the month I fell pregnant I'd been doing that. This cycle have added drinking pomegranate juice/adding pomegranate seeds to porridge/smoothies pre ovulation after these lovely ladies suggested it is good for building up your lining.

Sorry @Cienegadidnt see your message! I'm sorry it's totally shit. I started trying straight away but no luck so far. This is my first cycle after a proper period so hoping things are getting on track!

Supplement wise I take pregnacare and 300mg of Ubiquinol. I also drink POM juice, follow a medderterranean diet and am doing seed cycling. I had fertility acupuncture today and didn't think it was worth the money. But given how reccomended it is I'm going to try "normal" acupuncture (which is half the cost) on a weekly basis I think! Xx

Thanks @dippyegg32 and @AMS19, yeah I completely agree definitely can't be one size fits all. I'll look on fertility friend and hopefully that will help ease my worry ☺️

I've been feeling so hopeful about this cycle as everything seems to be stabilising and feel like this is throwing a curve ball that made me start thinking this won't be the cycle for me. Need to stay positive and believe that it is the one.

@PlantMummy87 I totally agree with @dippyegg32 the only thing I've seen a concern is temps being too high. You can go onto fertility friend and search charts with different filters such as average pre O temps, pretty sure that would put your mind at ease!

36.8-37*

I think I'm the opposite @PlantMummy87 so probably very unhelpful but my pre ovulation temps are 36.40ish, cover line 36.68 and post ovulation temps are currently 36.8-36.9. Surely there's no one size fits all?

Everything crossed for you @Pettylamby

Just had my first fertility acupuncture session. She was very thorough with things and took down my last two cycles BBT and the BBTs from the month I fell pregnant. She said that my temps are a little bit on the low side and that we need to work on getting them up a bit. I'm now worrying about the possibilities of there being a thyroid issue as that can cause temps to be lower. I've never had a thyroid blood test as never had a reason to. I've always had temps around 36.00°c pre ovulation rising to around 36.40°c post. Last month things were a bit all over the place and temps were lower but still had a rise. Not sure if I'm worrying over nothing as although my temps are on the lower side I've read that as long as it isn't lower that 35.60 pre ovulation then it isn't really an issue. Has anyone else had any advice or issues with this before? Scared that if we try and raise temps then everything will go out of whack again.

Congratulations to all of those with BFPs, amazing news! So lovely to see a thread full of hope!
Just finished my first period after suffering a MC at the end of January. Hoping to try again this month. Fingers crossed to everyone

@Pettylamby fingers crossed for you

@Pettylamby keeping everything crossed for you,praying its IB 🤞🤞🤞

...you!

@Pettylamby I have everything crossed for

Thank you everyone! But we defo need to hold our breaths...just went to the toilet and there is brown spotting! Which could either be pre-af spotting or IB which I did get last time... Everything crossed please 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Pettylamby whoooohoooooo things absolutely come in 3’s massive congrats that’s a BFP xxxx

@AMS19 I wouldn’t entirely write off acupuncture then but like you say maybe normal acupuncture at a fraction of the price or reflexology. If you’re feeling lighter though it may have done something xx

@Mellous aw thank you yes I’ve read mixed reviews so wasn’t sure but think up give them a go this month and see what happens

Last chance to have a 2021 baby

What’s others views on clear blue ovulation tests I read good and bad about them?
