TTC TABLETS!!!

[Macbookbaby]

Hi ladies, me and my partner have been trying for a while now! No luck! All my friends are getting pregnant and it’s becoming irritating! What supplements or tablets did you take while TTC I’ve tried folic acid but I’m going to carry on taking them! I don’t drink either, and I only smoke vape not normal fags, I quit a while back after we decided to try, but what worked for you any tips would be great. (P.s we have tried self insemination, we have tried the cup method, we have tried my legs in the air, we always try and relax and have fun and just nothing so anything would be great!!) xx

We have also tried pre-seed too! And my partner is also open to taking supplements! X

I took- high dose vit D, high dose folic acid, vital dha, omega 3 (without vit a) , coenzyme q10, pre conception pregnacare, grapefruit juice before ovulation (helps with ewcm) , pom juice after ovulation (helps with uterus lining) , preseed and the fertility cup.
Partner took preconception man and omega 3.
I got pregnant 3 times in the space of 8 months but kept miscarriaging or having chemical pregnancies.

So I then done all the above but added in 150mg aspirin once per day at night time at around 3dpo. I fell pregnant for the 4th time that year and I’m now 24 weeks

Best of luck x

Also I pinned down ovulation by doing bbt and opks. And we noticed we always got a BFP the months we only had sex 2 days before ovulation, day before Ovulation and day off ovulation.

The months we had sex every other day and it became a chore and stressful we didn’t get anywhere

@2020wish omg congratulations, I’m so sorry about you MC, I’ll give them a go and I’ll see what happens, I do take ovulation tests but I don’t do body temperature as we haven’t got a thermometer but will get one!! Me and my partner try to have sex the day before and the night of but I’m thinking we should up it to the night before the morning of the night of and the day after xx

I switched to seven seas trying for a baby tablets the month I conceived and also started 1tbsp raw maca powder in a smoothie every morning and 1 CoQ10 tablet a day from Holland and Barrett. Maybe a coincidence but I’ll be trying it again! Give it a try you never know! X

No advice about supplements but I would say try to DTD more. Try and do it more in the run up to ovulation and for a few days afterwards so you're covered.

Are you tracking periods and ovulation on an app? I tracked using Ovia app and liked it. I would also suggest DTD more often over the piece as you could be missing ovulation. Have you looked at the sperm meets egg plan? I didn’t use it but seems to have worked for a lot of people

I agree with PPs about trying to DTD more in the week leading up to expected ovulation if possible. Also a few days after would be good.

I would also suggest a thyroid test to rule out and under active or over active thyroid as that can affect fertility quite a bit.
