@Chlo2701 I’ve just done the same. Ordered vitamins, ovulation sticks and Pregnancy tests 🤣🤣

Chlo2701 · 11/06/2020 20:29

ChicaXS · 11/06/2020 20:45

It’s so lovely to meet ladies in my age bracket! ❤️

I’m waiting for AF this month, pretty certain I’m out as I had an odd cycle (peaked during CD27 lol!)

PinkTulipz · 11/06/2020 21:09

Does anyone know anything about grapefruit juice and Brazil nuts? Apparently they can help with conception. I had never heard about this before!

Semele5069 · 11/06/2020 21:15

@pinktulipz grapefruit juice improves CM+++ if you find that you don't have enough EWCM. I drunk buckets of it my ovulation week and it worked a treat. I'm not sure about the nuts though Hmm

Semele5069 · 11/06/2020 21:57

Hi @leftitlate37 !

Ther s an awful lot to pick up, isn't there?! And to think how naïve and terrified of getting pregnant most of us were when we were younger!

leftitlate37 · 11/06/2020 22:07

Hi @Semele5069 ! Yeah there really is! and we were literally saying this the other day about how terrified u are when younger that it'll accidentally happen - and now, with deliberate trying, we have realised how hard this could actually be! well i'm sure a few days on here and i'll be like a pro with everyones tips!

PinkTulipz · 11/06/2020 22:12

@Annna41 good to know it worked for you. I quite like grapefruit juice so may as well give it a go- can't do any harm!

Sleeeeeepy · 11/06/2020 22:12

Thanks for the list @lucieloos Great way to keep track. I'm hoping in July I can be promoted to Cycle 1 😂

LT103 · 11/06/2020 22:16

@leftitlate37 welcome!! I’m loving that I’ve found so many people in similar situation as me. But yes I feel a little out my depth. Learning lots I knew nothing about just by reading this!!

@Chlo2701 I’ve been taking just folic acid but ordered ttc vitamins so we’ll see if it helps 🤷🏻‍♀️

lucieloos · 11/06/2020 22:25

Does anyone have a link to some relatively reasonably priced ubiquinol?

leftitlate37 · 11/06/2020 22:28

ah thanks @LT103 ! yeah same, already i feel better knowing i'm not alone! think i might go nuts otherwise...only so much i can keep blabbing to hubby about too!
already think i need to read up, had started taking folic acid -but perhaps should be looking at some other vits given your post above :S . also maybe should be getting myself some decaf...argh,love my morning cuppa(s)!

LT103 · 11/06/2020 22:32

@leftitlate37. I haven’t gone that far. Still having my one cup of coffee a day. Not sure decaf will cut it 🙈😂

Bellabubble · 11/06/2020 22:52

Yay - congratulations @MrsTtobe!! So exciting!

I went to work, came hone and had issues with my phone so only just checked the thread!m - it’s been busy today!

@lucieloos I am 36 ttc #1 (had a mmc end of Feb this year) and am currently in the tww of my 4th cycle

M4v3r1ck · 11/06/2020 22:52

@lucieloos what a job on that list!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
@Chlo2701 hey cycle twin!!! 😘😂

Hello to the new folks! 😃😃😃 I'm based "beyond the wall" in Scotland! 😜😂

@Moominiss really sorry to hear that! Hope you get some answers from the doctor! 😘

@Lynnysong and others re: extra vitamins etc - thank you! How interesting re: unibiquinol lengthening cycles! Will check those out! 😃 Also @Lynnysong, glad you got your keys back! That'll be a weight off your mind! 😘

@Eviesma hurrah to coil removal! I was stupidly apprehensive about mine for no real reason! 🤦🏻‍♀️

@leftitlate37 I'm still naughty on the tea front! 🙈 Total tea Jenny! I'm four cups a day like clockwork! I've successfully switched out my second morning cuppa for decaf and so far it's going ok! The NHS guidelines say under 200mg and they give rough estimates on what that means! I'm hoping to go down to two regular and two decaf from next week, and I should be well within that limit!

Phew think that's me caught up! Always lovely to read and catch up on these messages after a crazy day in work! 😍😍😍

Chlo2701 · 12/06/2020 08:56

@M4v3r1ck love the fact we're the same DPO, we can compare notes🤪 what day you testing? & when did you say your AF is due? Weirdly I'm starting to feel nervous today, as I know if it happens this month we could be implanting beginning of next wk! I've read the earliest you can implant is 6DPO. I never got any implantation bleeding with my last pregnancy but I did with my first, & I really want to get it because at least that would be a sign that something is happening x
