Thanks @AMS19! The daily dose of vitamin B is already in the prenatal I'm taking, so not sure about it. I might look into the Angus Cactus. Hopefully full AF stays away so until tomorrow at least, i can feel it on it's way though.
I am surprised my temps haven't fallen more. Thought i'd get a bit more notice by checking those! 😂
My last cycle was 26 days and I'm CD25 now so suppose it could be expected.

Bells20 · 01/12/2020 19:56

@positivitytree2020 I'm taking pregnacare and a b12 supplement so I hope I'm alright haha. That's shit about the spotting, my first thought was maybe implantation and I defo have my fingers crossed that is still is but you know your body better than any of us! I've heard others take Angus castus I think it's called.. I would probably look into taking that if my lp is short this month.

@AMS19 your chart gives me hope that all is not lost!

@Foxl2222 glad I'm not alone in the torchlight testing haha. Fingers crossed for you, lots of people don't have symptoms and still fall pregnant!

@jessi60 reflux is awful isn't it, have you got any gaviscon? I've had to stock up as I've had it a bit over the past few months!

positivitytree2020 · 01/12/2020 20:12

@AMS19 Ahhh okay, so you can overdose on it if you need to? 😂 adds 20 jars to baskets 😂 maybe I will order some so, I thought you weren’t meant to but maybe they meant for the average person, not someone ttc! 😊

Thanks @Bells20! Yes as much as I wish it was implantation I know it’s not, this has happened to me the last 2 cycles so it’s not out of the blue! 😔

Does anyone else find this journey very isolating? Was quite upset there just out of sheer frustration as to why I’m having shortish cycles, and sure DH doesn’t have a clue what I’m on about so kinda frustrates me more talking to him! I’m sure he thinks I’m crazy it’s my 2nd time crying today! 😂 can’t talk to any family/friends about it either! Thank god for this forum! ❤️

jessi60 · 01/12/2020 20:18

@positivitytree2020 Vitamin B is a water soluble vitamin not fat soluble so it isn’t stored in tissue. Meaning it’s quite hard to overdose on it as your body just excretes the excess out through urine, so you should be fine. It’s why your wee goes bright yellow. I give it all the time to people at work. Things like vitamin A & D you shouldn’t have too much of cause your body stores it x

jessi60 · 01/12/2020 20:19

@Bells20 No I’ll have to get something if it continues. I was told after getting past the age of 25 I may develop these things 🤣🤣🤣 x

positivitytree2020 · 01/12/2020 20:21

@jessi60 Thank you so much!! 😊 that's really good to know, maybe I had been reading it wrong before!!
Would B6 tablets on their own be good, or a B Complex?
Going to order some now so I'll be able to start taking straight away!

jessi60 · 01/12/2020 20:29

@positivitytree2020 It is possible to overdose on it but you have to be taking crazy amounts of the stuff. I’d imagine it isn’t enough in a vitamin tablet. If your taking enough with the pregnacare I don’t think taking additional will be of any benefit though? Aslong as your getting the recommended amount. Plus you’ll be getting some off the food you eat aswell X

Ams19 · 01/12/2020 20:30

@positivitytree2020 the others ladies were using a B high complex and then Angus cactus. And literally we just have a wave of BFPs! Like @jessi60 says you just pee it out. At the moment my prenacare isn't making me wee even slightly yellow where as before it was glowing so clearly my body is using it all up and there isn't any excess!

OP posts:
positivitytree2020 · 01/12/2020 20:35

@jessi60 haha that's very true, there's only 10mg in pregnacare which is really small. I've just looked them up now and some health shops are saying you can take 100mg a day! So maybe I am not getting enough! Even if it helps increase my LP by 1/2 days I would be back to "adequate" levels lol!

@AMS19 super, b complex & AC it is! Would much rather fix the issue naturally if possible! The thought of progesterone supplements is too much, and you have to keep taking them up to 12 weeks of pregnancy if you do fall! so not something I want to jump into!

jessi60 · 01/12/2020 20:38

@AMS19 Fascinating that your wee isn’t yellow anymore 😂 sometimes think mine is basically radioactive haha , clearly shows the extras your body needs for the baby doesn’t it 🥰🥰x

Ams19 · 01/12/2020 20:42

@jessi60 honestly it is so weird! Radioactive is so right! The glow that used to come out of the toilet, it was literally like a drunk a highlighter pen. But no literally nothing now. The little bean parasite is sucking all the goodness from me 😂😂

OP posts:
Bells20 · 01/12/2020 20:51

Ladies that is so strange you've been talking about bright wee. I literally just came out of the toilet and said to my OH I think there's something wrong with me because my wee was highlighter yellow 😂😂 I was genuinely alarmed! I had no idea b vits did that!

Bells20 · 02/12/2020 07:42

Please tell me these are vvvvvfaint lines and I'm not just seeing things!!! I am shaking like a leaf!!!!!!

@Ams19 great to see your scan picture and to hear you're going to have more contact with professionals now til bean catches up - sounds really positive ♥️

Oh my wee is fluorescent yellow all the time - I have regularly taken a multivitamin of some kind for iron levels for a couple of years. There's been a couple of times it hasn't been glowing after taking the vitamins and I've thought omg how depleted were my vitamins if I needed all of them 😱😂

I had bloods done yesterday and an AMH test. Will find out results of bloods on Friday and AMH test in about a week 🤞🏼

CardioQueen · 02/12/2020 07:47

@Bells20 I can def see faint lines on both!!!!

Ams19 · 02/12/2020 07:53

OMG YES!!! @Bells20 I see it!! How many DPO are you? Eeeeek I think that might just be your BFP 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

@CardioQueen got everything crossed for you! Like I said before, either outcome is good news and progress

OP posts:
GreenApplesYo · 02/12/2020 08:02

@bells20 ohhhh my gosh!!! It's definitely there! How exciting 😃🎉

Bells20 · 02/12/2020 08:05

I had an elaborate plan to tell my OH when I did get a BFP but instead I just shouted it at him when he got back from the gym this morning haha. He now wants to tell his mum straight away but I'm so anxious now about a chemical.. @AMS19 how often did you test after you got yours? I feel like it's so faint I can't quite believe it yet. I'm 10dpo today

@CardioQueen sounds like a good idea to have the tests I hope you get some answers from them!

Foxl2222 · 02/12/2020 08:08

@Bells20 that if for sure a bfp!!!! Congrats! That's amazing to see!! 🙏🙏🙏 this is the start of the BFP's 🤞🤞
I'm 7dpo today, caved and took frer this morning. Was convinced I saw a minimal squinter, OH thought I was raving mad and couldn't see anything- so I'm putting in down to my imagination. Will try again Saturday 🤞

PowerOfFlowers · 02/12/2020 08:17

Omg omg yes I see it @Bells20!! 😆😆😆😆😆😆

GreenApplesYo · 02/12/2020 08:20

@bells20 I think the line is looking fine for 10dpo, but if your DP can wait it might be better to tell his mum once you have officially missed your period. By the way, I tested every day at first and then went to every other day.

AMS19 · 02/12/2020 08:28

@Bells20 lovely line for 10DPO. I tested 12DPO, 13DPO, 15DPO, 17DPO with a FRER. 17DPO was period due date so I took a CB digital that day and got 2-3 weeks. Then I switched to ICs and tested every other day (HCG only doubles every 2 days so there is no benefit in testing each day - although obviously the urge is real 😂😂😂). I would definitely hold off until you get to at least period due on date before telling anyone if it were me...

@Bells20 yayyyyy!!! I see it too!!!! SOOO delighted for you 🙌🏼🙌🏼 congrats xxxxx

Bells20 · 02/12/2020 08:58

Thank you everyone I had such terrible line eyes this morning haha. I'm at work now and wondering how the hell I'm going to get through the day.

@GreenApplesYo thank you, I think I will do the same. I would like to tell both our families at Christmas even though it's a bit early I think it'd be hard not to. I'll try and see if he can hold out until then!

@AMS19 thanks for posting your tests that's so helpful to see and very reassuring. Period due date is apparently Saturday but I've only just had a withdrawal bleed so far so absolutely no idea really! Still keep feeling like I'm coming on... I've even put a pad on as a precaution today which feels totally mad!

Oh I'm so hoping for a sticky one and really hoping there are a few more BFPs this month too! I only tested this morning as after yesterday's dip there was a slight rise in my temp! I really had pretty much ruled myself out!

jessi60 · 02/12/2020 10:02

@Bells20 eeeeek deffo there! Exciting!! Congrats 🥰🥰🥰🥰 Xxx
