Manuka honey helping to concieve?

Hi ladies, i know the pain of wanting to get pregnant after trying for so long.

7 people i know who had been trying to concieve between 6months and 3years gave me a tip... they were having 2 spoonfuls of manuka honey umf25+ a day.. all of them who now have children or are pregnant.

After ttc for 14 months i decided to give it a go... i am now 13+2 :)

This may be a total fluke but if it can help anyone at all its worth putting it out there

Hi there! Sorry that AF arrived Havealittlefaithbaby. Mine arrived yesterday in full force too :( on cd 2 today. So... My cycle which has always been 28 days, for the last two was 25 days, and this one has reduced further to just 24 days. That's not even funny! What does this mean in teems of ttc? Heeeelp!

wishing it may just be you ovulated a bit earlier those cycles. Mine are anything from 24-28 days long.

Florin- if it's a boy call him Manuka- or at least something beginning with M, for a girl it has to be Honey surely? !

Thanks for all the congratulations feeling very excited and scared all at the same time. Hoping it sticks now. Might carry on taking the Manuka as it is meant to be good for blood supply to your womb so surely that has to help it stick!
