40+ ttc: 2018 is full of bfp's!

[Orchid222]

Ladies, the old thread has finished, here's a new one.

Ali does epo bring ovulation forward? It's certainly not the case with me.

You can get B6 and B12 separately which I think are the important ones, so you can miss the folate out. I've just ordered some B6 on its own to use now.
I got a tiny spot but it was 6dpo so maybe it wasn't implantation then. I've never heard of that before? I don't notice the pain around implantation every month maybe 3 times since we've been trying. I do remember it with DD.

EPO doesn't bring ovulation forward for me either. I think I've heard somewhere it can do though.

I’ll try that Jojo. My LP is 14 days but I do get cramps and spotting straight after implantation window.

6dpo could have been the start of implantation. I think it takes a few days.

Orchid, I think Mimosa may have mentioned epo and early ov so I thought I would try not taking it this cycle. Ov was cd11. Last month it was cd8. Could just be a coincidence though.

Good luck Happ7Bunny! Will this be your first?

It might help with that then Ali.
Cleo are you carrying on with Ubquinol? I haven't found an answer on google.

I've stopped all suppliments and just taking pregnacare max as that is supposed to contain everything I need now. Hopefully will be enough (3 tablets a day in the max pack!)

I found some pregnacare from last time a couple of months past their best before date I thought I'd take them until I can go shopping.

Thanks for the info JoJo. I went to look at my preconception vits earlier and the B6 & B12 are 100%rda so I might add in just those two as separate supplements. Gosh I remember taking high dose B6 whe. I was breastfeeding DC2 as I had awful painful Raynauds in my nipples and I was advised to take it.
I already add an extra magnesium spray, a vitamin D spray and a vitamin C tablet to my ‘regime’. Along with ubiquinol, Shatavari and serrapeptase I’m truly glowing with health! I’ve personally stopped the EPO as I don’t think it was helping my early ovulation. I seem to do better off it.

Mimosa what is serrapeptase supposed to do?

Oh good Mimosa, it was you.

I fell pg very easily in 2016 which ended badly and have been trying since but nothing. I have been taking loads of supplements and I wonder if they have upset whatever balance I had. I have been taking a high dose of epo since then and I’m also wondering if it’s causing early ov.

Haha little that's a lot of supplements! It's so hard remembering them all. I was thinking about getting one of those day of the week pill containers old people have to save confusion.

I have one of those pill dispensers Jojo! I don’t take anything now but will start again on vit d, calcium/mag/zinc and vit c at some point.

Haha jojo I so nearly bought one of those a few weeks ago!!!

It would be so handy

Hi, littlemimosa suggested I come over here (hi!) I'm planning on ttc - 41, nearly 42 - but still a little bit scared of the whole idea tbh. I thought I was planning well by starting some prenatal multivitamins and cutting back on the chocolate and gin but you ladies are on a whole other level!!

Hi stars I'm a similar age to you 41 almost 42....
Are you trying for your first?

Evening all - I am still buzzing from the triple preg joy... hoping it’s catching ... ! Feel like I do need to up my game ... possibly go the temp route and review my vits, as maybe I’m missing a trick ... this ubiquinol sounds interesting... gonna read through suggestions.. welcome Stars btw, there’s lots of wisdom here... and hopefully it’s catching ... !! To be honest I think my biggest issue right now is frequency of DTD often enough when we should as I don’t know when Ov is happening although that said defo EWCM last few days (but now@ my parents and DH 80 miles away!!😬) Anyway baby dust to us all !! 🌟🌟🌟🌟x

Thanks for the welcome I think I have to work out all the shorthand!!
weasledee it would be my first, OH has two adult girls and a granddaughter so it's nice that only one of us has no clue what we're letting ourselves in for

(Sorrybhit oostvtoo doon) Is it your first too?

Ok so no edit function??!

Stars I’m trying to conceive (ttc) my number 2, I’ve have a dd (dear daughter) and had a miscarriage (mc) before her and one after. Yes the abbreviations take a while to learn!!
Good luck to you and partner 🙏🏻X

Anyone heard anything about Ifert monitor?
Goes under your arm...

Faith I like the idea of it but after reading the reviews I'm not convinced. My preference would be ava bracelet but of course it's much more expensive.
Ali I think you were thinking of buying it are you going to?

It wasn’t me Orchid - must have been someone else.
