Happy New TTC Bus - Jan 2021 - it's going to be a corker!

[BubsNumber2inTheMaking]

Thought I'd kick this off...

CD 7 for me following 2nd mc 🤦🏼‍♀️ Ready to kick the new year off with a bang (not literally, sorry husband), and get a blimin bun in the oven already!
Come on ladies, let's get each other through this. BFP's coming our way soon I just know it 😘💪🙌xx

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking
Ok so if I take mine every other day? X

@MgW1 I take proceive, I know they are strong but can't remember what amount t exactly. Will have to Google it

@MgW1 what other supplements are you taking that contain vit D? You can probably take every day or every other day. X

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking
Just the seven seas , im prob not deficient but wont do any harm x

@MgW1 just googled it and that's quite low. I reckon take one of your vit D supplements daily as well. X

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking
Ok i will do , i was worried i might end up over doing it! X thank you

Hi all
First month tracking my BBT so wondered if anybody more experienced could help.
My predicted ovulation day is thurs/Friday and this morning I got a temp dip. Does this mean I will be ovulating sooner than experienced?

Chart attached.

Thanks!

@MgW1 you can't really overdo it, you'll just pass excess out in your wee! Its just an expensive wee if you take loads! Don't stress too much, an extra few doses of vit D won't do any harm!

I can’t quite believe it but after last nights blur, I got a bfp on a frer. I’m still not convinced as it’s so early so just need to sit tight. I’ve never had this though! The month we ditched SMEP too! The only thing I stuck with was the acupuncture and herbs. 0 symptoms other than the strange throbbing last night.

@SRyellow wooohooo! Congratulations!! 🤗🤗🤗 So pleased for you 💜

@SRyellow fabulous news!!! So happy for you 🧡🧡
Oh wow that’s interesting you ditched SMEP and it worked! If you don’t mind me asking... did you just not follow anything this time round? How long have you been ttc for?

Congratulations @SRyellow any tips? Xx

I'm really struggling to take the proceive vitamins as I can't swallow them so I'm having to open them and sprinkle it into a yogurt which is turning my stomach. Can anyone recommend an easy to swallow vitamin that is strong? I haven't had a single cold since taking proceive and don't want to catch everything if I stop taking them

Thanks everyone, I couldn’t sleep and confirmed on a digital this morning but still only 12dpo. @Sar1010 and @Dogmum13 I’ve been ttc 9 months and I think I’ve tried nearly everything! I’ve never even got a faint line on tests.

In my experience, I don’t think SMEP helped. We did that for 3 months and after finally cracking and talking to my sister last month (who seems to fall pregnant easy and a nurse) she said that she thinks that SMEP would dilute the swimmers too much as sperm needs 2/3 days to be mature and become concentrated. With that in mind and knowing I O around cd18, we DTD cd 13,16,18 and 19 only this month as I needed a break!

I really do think the acupuncture and herbs helped, I’ve done that for 2 months and my feet are always so cold so she tried to improve my circulation.

This month I took no vits but the 2 months before, me and DH took vitawest. I also used preseed every time.

Not sure if it’s just luck and calming down a bit over Xmas break or could be a combo of all of the above. I just want to get past af dates to believe it!

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking thank you! I’m in shock! Hope you’re ok and I’m still going to follow to watch out for everyone’s Bfps xx

@SRyellow congratulations!that's fantastic news, it's lovely to hear a success story 😊 x

@SRyellow that's interesting to know as I've just read articles from several drs saying that there is no such thing as dtd too much when ttc. They actually said the more the better. We are trying more rather than less this month but might try your approach next month and see if either works 😁 I do think it's down to luck most of the time tbh

@Dogmum13 sorry to hear about your grandmother 😞 I completely missed that message yesterday. Hope she's ok 💕

I've got 2 hrs until my call with HR to discuss my role. Bricking it. Feel sick. Couldn't sleep last night and ended up doing a pregnancy test at 2:30am just because I was so desperate for something happy to cheer me up. Obviously bfn 🤦🏼‍♀️ I'm only 9dpo today so I know that's early to test anyway. Going to wait until Saturday to test again now. Felt so rock bottom in the middle of the night. Cried my eyes out for until 4:30am when I eventually passed out. The last 6months have just been so royally shite.
Oh well. Everything will be ok in the end. If it's not ok, it's not the end...
Sending lots of love and BFPs to all you lovely ladies xx

Huge congratulations @SRyellow! Love some BFP news on the group.

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking how are you doing ? Sounds like you had a horrible night. Hope it all went ok today. My company went through mass redundancy in June , it’s a horrible anxious time! But you are right it won’t last , this too will pass 😌! the last 6 months have been pish, the cold and dark makes it so much worse for some reason, absolute shitey year!! Better things to come for us all 💕

Hi ladies!! Hope you're all doing well! Haven't been on much lately but wanted to check in.

@SRyellow big congratulations!! Such wonderful news!! Soooo happy for you. 💞

Congratulations to all the ladies with BFPs x

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking oh gosh! Hope you're meeting went well xx

Hi,

Late joining this thread but have been following.

Had laparoscopic surgery in July 2018 for endometriosis. Slight endo was removed. August 2020, came off the pill after being on it for 12 years. Withdrawal bleed early September. Started TTC after period in September. Cycles have ranged from 35 to this month 28. Have been using clear blue last 2 months, 5 days flashing face and then static. Currently 8dpo and have been feeling nausea for last few days, strange feeling in lower pelivic area and tender breast. Wondering when to test?

@ZiggyStardustt thanks for asking, I'm alright(ish). Horrible day. My Dept is being culled from 6roles to 2. Just rubbish and stress I obviously really don't need right now 😞 Out of interest, did people keep working through the consultation period?
Fingers crossed for some much nicer news soon 💕xx

@SunnydazeQ thank you for your message too xx

@LauraDanxx welcome! Totally up to you. I tend to start at 10dpo with FRER tests only. Tried with internet cheapies but they just don't seem to be sensitive enough! Good luck! Sounds promising! 🤞x

Thank you, for your advice. Thinking of you too xx

Anyone recommend any of the cheap ovulation tests on amazon?
