Ovulation/TTC continued

[newtolineofduty]

@Aims1991 @CShandy01 @hoola23 @MrsRosaline @plantbasedlondoner @LittleDoveLove thought I'd best start a new thread before it stops letting us post given we're almost at 1k! 🥰 x

Have I forgotten anyone!? X

@Aims1991 🤣🤣🤣 that will be me soon. I've already taken over the bathrooom with hundreds pf opk, vitamins etc🤣

Ok so I will be adding all of these juices to my shopping as well. In fact it's my day off tomorrow so May swing by Tesco 😂 DH always goes on at how every month there's a new fad or thing for me to try for either fertility or weight loss 😬😬

@hoola23 @CShandy01 I bought the OH multi vitamins and well man vitamin today which he promised he would take 🤣

@Aims1991 yeaaahhhh I couldn't persuade DH to take vitamins even if it made him turn into a professional Rugby player 🤣🤣🤣

@CShandy01 well I've got them and he said he would take them. If he does then I'll have to wait and see

@CShandy01 @Aims1991 I got some for my DH too, pretty sure he doesn't take them though🤣

@hoola23 I'd be happy if he took them around fertile week... can see him taking one or two and and then losing them

@Aims1991 @hoola23 don't get me wrong, I'd love for DH to give them a go! Can't understand why he doesn't want to, but hey ho.

Speaking of which, I still need to take my horse tranquilliser tonight. Still can't get over how big the tablets are!

@CShandy01 @Aims1991 I think if my DH thought they worked, he would. He thinks I'm a sucker for all advertising🤣 which is true!

@hoola23 @CShandy01 yeah I'm the same, I think he must just want to help this process and take them. Wait till he get dinner and grapefruit or pomegranate juice 🤣🤣🤣

@CShandy01 pregnacare increased my CM too for sure! X

@newtolineofduty how long had you been taking it for hun?

@newtolineofduty I have it but never taken it as I'm worried it messes my cycles

@Aims1991 I'm sure it messes with my cycles. When I took seven seas it definitely did.

No surge; no peak. Nothing today. Where is my ovulation ☹️

@MrsRosaline I will stick to folic acid and evening primrose oil and try that this month

@CShandy01 I would say it was the third month of taking it that I REALLY noticed! However it was also my third month of trying EPO too! I'm convinced that's what did it conception wise!!!! X

@MrsRosaline I know it must feel frustrating hun but it'll just be your body taking a rest to recover xxxx

@newtolineofduty might give the EPO a go next cycle then. Definitely noticed that CM has increased dramatically and I'm CD10 at the moment. With EPO you only take it up to ovulation don't you?

I'm so upset. I'm in tears at work! Just feeling really rubbish today. We tried for so long, only to lose it. And now it's like salt in the wound that my body won't ovulate. ☹️ I was certain today would be the day.

@MrsRosaline it's hard not to get yourself upset about it. But maybe you just need AF to arrived and start a fresh. How long have you been trying?

@MrsRosaline you are right it absolutely sucks. TTC is really unfair. I think if it were me I'd put away the sticks now, wait for AF and start afresh next cycle when your body has worked it all out xx I know it's easier said than done though xx

Yes @CShandy01 so I used to start it around CD5 and take until last day of ovulation xxx I took 500mg capsules the first month but then the next two months went up to 1000 and that made more of a difference x

@CShandy01 @hoola23 so no surprise OH didn't take vitamins today. Said he will start Monday

Sorry for the radio silence, I have been on holiday and trying to get my mind off TTC and then I couldn't find the new thread although I can now see I was tagged!

First of all, HUGE congratulations @newtolineofduty !! So happy for you and so nice to have some good news in this group ☺️ please keep sharing how you are doing and how the scan goes etc. Hoping you give us some of your luck this month- I need to try some grapefruit juice too I think!

I'm on CD 31 and no sign of AF (last cycle was 25 days and my usual is 31 days although it's a bit erractic especially when I have a change in routine e.g. a holiday! ) but I do have PMS symptoms.

How is everyone else doing? @hoola23 hope you are over the worst with the period pain

@plantbasedlondoner have you tested? You never know your holiday could of brought you some luck

@plantbasedlondoner that's exciting!!!!! I had all my usual PMS symptoms!!!!!!!!!! X
