We've been trying for our first for over a year, had initial blood tests from docs and all normal.
Just got my hands on some of the ovulation sticks (but not 100% sure how to use them!)
Struggling with my GP - super slow for appointments, only telephone appointments which they won't give a specific time for and I don't have anywhere private to speak at work and I'm sure they were looking at someone else's notes last time I spoke to them plus its been 4 months since I made my first appointment so it's super slow

Hello lovely
Might sound a little strange. But what helped in the end for us was no more peeing on any sticks (including ovulation!) and less frequent sex!
After two years I thought it wouldn't happen despite normal tests for both of us. Then we saw a consultant privately and with her advice we just dtd twice a week throughout the month and stopped monitoring anything.
We were pregnant two months later Smile

Preseed! Can buy on Amazon. Maybe a coincidence but I am convinced it worked. Hope you get your positive soon. Also as previous poster said, when I relaxed a little it happened. However I know that’s easier said than done. X

So you may think I'm nuts but I used a warm (not hot) water bottle after ovulation on my stomach for an hour at night while I'm chilling watching TV. I read somewhere that it's from Chinese medicine and it helps create a better environment for implantation. It could be a total coincidence but it's worked 3 times for me. I hope you get your bfp soon op ❤️ x

Clear blue ovulation machine.

Which I then gave to a friend and worked for them too.

I would highly recommend the MyOva Inositol tablets. We had been trying for nearly 18 months and I decided to give them a try after seeing them recommended. I fell pregnant at 18 months trying! Unfortunately I did MC. I started taking them again a few months later when we had been trying for 2 years and again, the following month I got pregnant! That one stuck and my Son is 10 months now.

It could of course have been coincidence but it would be a pretty big one that the two months I got pregnant I had taken them.

We also used conceive plus lube

preseed instead of regular lube, using a menstrual cup after DTD and leaving it in for the night, and taking COQ10 tablets for a few months. We are no spring chickens, so the odd shouldn't be in our favour, but the menstrual cup method really works I think. First time using that, pregnant.
