anyone else taking B vitamins for short leuteal phase?

Choccywoccydodah · 06/11/2013 11:13

Me flymo. Normally start spotting 7dpo then full flow at 10/11 dpo.
Seems to be working so far GrinGrin

Feel so sick today and my head feels pressure like it's gonna explode! Dizzy this morning too.
My parents have our ds today so have come out with dh and currently sitting with a nice hot choc Smile

Ooh choccy enjoy your hot choc! I could do with one myself, it's bloody freezing today! How old is your DS?

I'm off to playgroup shortly with DD. The group leader mentioned last week that she'd asked a new mum to come along this week with her month old baby... My broodiness levels will be through the roof if she turns up!

mama31 · 06/11/2013 11:31

Flymo I'm on 50mg b6, 1dpo today....still deciding whether to increase to 100mg as I've a lot of vitamins going on this cycle....oil of evening primrose, B6, folic acid and seven seas....then actimel one a day....and now pineapple core....vitamin overload! might stick to the 50mg and see what happens!

Flymo I'm getting blood test on cd22 as well!!! :) this time next week!!!

jessieagain · 06/11/2013 11:34

I think the trick to eating pineapple core is to cut into wedges like you would a cake. So that you get a little core with each slice :)I have eaten a little pineapple core when tcc and a lot when I wanted to bring on labour, so be careful not to over do it!

m33r I remember reading 'the secret' years ago. Was good - thinking your dreams into reality. Never thought to apply it to ttc.

flymo79 · 06/11/2013 11:41

thanks for B vit info, am wondering whether to take it or to speak to GP (they will prob not give me any info though, they don't like you taking matters into your own hands I've noticed!!) hoping dtd every other day will do it, but really just don't want to see af this month.

enjoy your time with dh choccy, am dreaming of a hot choc right now!!

DuPainDuVinDuFromage · 06/11/2013 11:41

Congrats Sparky!

And Choccy, well done on having your poo! Grin and fingers crossed that this is your month!

I am indeed trying to wait until Thursday to poas but you ladies have influenced me at least a little bit - I bought a test at Sainsbury's yesterday and I'm sure I would have waited until Thurs if it wasn't for this thread! Grin Will still wait until Thurs to use it though, unless my resolve cracks earlier! No sign of AF still, but not feeling sick any more...

PS bleurgh pineapple is yuk. Won't be joining the pineapple party!

spinningirl10 · 06/11/2013 11:44

MissV and Lucy.....I hope something happens for you soon, the waiting must be awful!

Hurray for no more spotting for choccy.....sounds positive!!

Really hoping the pineapple works and we get lots more bfp this monthGrin

Adp007 · 06/11/2013 12:02

Morning bus, hope everybody is good. Sure I got a v. Faint line this morning, the more I look at it the more I can see it (think I'm going crazy)! Only using the cheapo strips so gonna go and get a ERFR in the morning if still no AF as I'm usually regular as clockwork! Good luck everybody PoAS today xx

ThisIsMeNow · 06/11/2013 12:24

8 dpo today. Thought I'd got a faint line last night but poas this morning and nada.
Sad

mama31 · 06/11/2013 13:02

ADP! Sounds promising!!!! :) good luck for poas tomorrow!

Thisisme!!! What tests did you use??? 8dpo is way early so don't rule bfp out yet!!!

Well ladies.....just had my pineapple slice and core....and it was absolutely delightful....not like wood at all....so fresh, juicy and tasty....im officially a pineapple lady! :) and the next 4 days will be just lovely with my pineapple core ;) thoroughly enjoyed it!!! (even more so thinking it could help the little egg implant!!!!!)

onelifeonechance · 06/11/2013 13:17

Glad you enjoyed your pineapple mama Smile did you have some melon&Actimel with it?? Lol Im still going with the Actimel plan, too late for pineapple now as 6dpo,, did have some core but didn't follow it religiously so will be following your progress with interest, fx Smile

Lucy, af due 14th, if it stays away I may be able to poas at one of Mama's parties Smile

spinningirl10 · 06/11/2013 13:23

Well as we seem to chat openly about anything here I thought I'd fill you in I'm my newsGrin

Dp and I have finally dtd after 3 weeks!!! Wink

I had a mc last week and before that he was worried about hurting bean!! I'm really happy and hoping that this means we can start ttc again!! And I love pineapple so I'll be joining the pineapple party just as soon as I can!

Pleased u enjoyed yours MamaGrin

englishteacher78 · 06/11/2013 13:38

looks like I'm now spotting so quite likely to be hopping off and then on to the December bus soon. Starting to get disheartened already with the whole thing if I'm honest and it's only been 4 months. Feel really jealous of my friends who seem to have conceived first time despite being older than me and DH. Envy Angry

MovingOnUpduffed · 06/11/2013 13:49

flymo I get a dull aching heavy feeling in my pelvis and back right from ovulation, then about 3 days before AF really severe pains on and off until AF is gone, last month I fainted. :-( I also feel really tired and unwell for that time, and sometimes have pain during sex. I've been on a few different pills lately as they all give me side effects, so the gp wants to wait until I have been off it a while before investigating. Another reason why I really hope I am pregnant- a break from the awful AF!

flymo79 · 06/11/2013 13:53

aw, english, it's really tough. I have friends who have conceived without really trying and it sucks so bad, we just need to keep visualising that it will happen for us. Maybe next cycle try something different. Have you been doing SMEP?
treat yourself to something tasty xxx

flymo79 · 06/11/2013 13:59

God, moving, that sounds hor-rendous. keep us posted about what the gp says, if you do have any investigations I mean. Really hope it's a bfp for you too xx

Adp007 · 06/11/2013 14:04

English- don't give up. It took us 13 cycles to get our beautiful DS. I was 24 and fella was 30 at the time. It's awful when everything is reminding you all the time but he was well worth the wait. Your patience will be rewarded xx

mama31 · 06/11/2013 14:16

Awh sorry English that is rubbish!!! Hugs!

Moving hope you get your bfp soon!!! Sounds very painful!

Spinning! Great news!! :)

Onelife yes I had some actimel....but didn't bother with the melon....poor DH will be offended after his melon search! Haha! Wowzers 6dpo! Your way ahead of my onelife, I'm only 1dpo!!! I will be hoping, praying, wishing and doing all possible for your bfp!!! X

Choccywoccydodah · 06/11/2013 14:17

Elcranko ds is 2 and 2 months.
So no more spotting still. Cervix has risen and very closed. Sorry if tmi but now I have diarrhoea (I know you love hearing about my bowels!!)

So have been into the estate agent today to see when we can move and he told us he was just about to call as the tenants want to move now, are handing back the keys on 20th November!! We're completing the following Monday woohoo!
However, we've booked to go away mon to fri next week which leaves a week to pack!!
Sooooooo excited, just need my bfp now!

Choccywoccydodah · 06/11/2013 14:17

So sorry English Thanks

spinningirl10 · 06/11/2013 14:47

Oooh Choccy I had diarrhoea just before my bfp!!!!

Sorry English about your spotting....fx you get your bfp soon.

Missvaughan85 · 06/11/2013 15:03

Choccy can I join you with the vowels movements, I'm either constipated, or have diorrhea, great news about the spotting and even better news about the house!!! And a week away will be wonderful for you!!! Have a week away from here too, completely switch off!!! I know it's easier said than done. A bfp for you will really finish this month off nicely!!! X x

ThisIsMeNow · 06/11/2013 15:33

Mama I used some ic's and I know it's early but I just don't feel like its our month again

Choccy my cervix has gone really high and closed but I'm not sure if thats just because I've ov'd? Read something about it not changing properly until later on if you are pg?

English, when's Af due? Don't give up totally. It's completely normal to be jealous, don't worry about that. Fx the spotting is nothing.
