Kiwi, I would also be super interested for that ebook! My email is REMOVED thanks!! I know secondary infertility is actually more common than initial infertility, but I guess after 2 kids I thought I was safe from it...obviously not!!

Thanks angel, I know you're right...I also know that if baby #3 isn't going happen that God can take that desire away! :)

Ginny...yay for a healthy baby!! Praying it continues to go smoothly.

Melainey, sounds like your feeling pretty crap...hope you wake up feeling 100% better tomorrow!
 
Thank you Kiwi :)

I gave out to my Emails as they had put you in my junk.... And you my darling are not junk hehe :hugs:
 
Girls... found this on a site. Might help. Of course not everything can be done but worth a read anyways!
​

• BEWARE OF:
HOT TUBS - May cause DH's body temperature
to rise significantly, which can
destroy sperm and it takes 72-90 days
from start to finish to replenish his supply.
Hot tubs like douching may also
cause you to wash away sperm friendly mucus.
K-Y JELLY - This lubricant may create an environment
which traps and doesn't allow the sperm to swim to their destination.
SMOKING, ALCOHOL & RECREATIONAL DRUGS - Have been linked
to reduced fertility in both the male and female.
• ENTIRE CYCLE:
Folic Acid (B9)> 800 mcg daily:
Although, the FDA recommends that Folic Acid
consumption should be limited to 1,000 mcg per day,
keep in mind that:
Alcohol, Phenobarbital and anticonvulsants
can produce a folic acid deficiency.
BE CAREFUL not to supplement with only one B vitamin
without providing your body
with the full range of B vitamins.
• ENTIRE CYCLE:
Red Raspberry ("RR") 1,000 mg daily
Begin at any time of cycle.
Can be taken during pregnancy
until a month prior to labor/delivery.
Strengthens the uterine lining
which in turn lengthens LP
LP = Luteal Phase
LP = dpo or days past ovulation
and eases painful menses and nausea.
Combine RR with either Vitex or B6 for
LPD = luteal phase defect
• ENTIRE CYCLE:
Vitex a/k/a Chasteberry Tree ("VTX")
1,000 mg daily
Vitex helps relieve PMS because of its
effects on female sex hormones.
It helps balance hormones produced
during our cycles, increasing
production of luteinizing hormone
("LH" which is detected by OPK)
and inhibiting the release of
follicle-stimulating hormone.
This leads to a shift in the
estrogen-progesterone ratio,
resulting in less estrogen to cause
or aggravate PMS.
The only caveat is that women who have
PMS with significant depression
should probably steer clear of chasteberry.
Some research suggests that PMS with depression
is caused by excess progesterone,
and vitex is said to raise progesterone levels.
Vitex proved clearly superior to B6.
Combine Vitex with Red Raspberry for LPD
LPD = Luteal Phase Defect
• ENTIRE CYCLE:
B-6 ("B6") 100 mg daily
a/k/a Pyridoxine B6
to be taken at the same time as your Prenatal.
Be careful not to supplement with a single B vitamin
without providing your body with
the full range of B vitamins.
B6 to be taken at the same time
as your Prenatal or multivitamin.
B6 is used to lengthen the luteal phase -
LP = Luteal Phase or DPO (days past ovulation)
and assist RNA & DNA synthesis
and production of red blood cells.
B6 and Red Raspberry will lengthen your luteal phase.
If Vitex is not for you try B6.
• ENTIRE CYCLE:
Lecithin
1 before each meal:
Take one Lecithin capsule before each meal
to improve brain function, absorption of thiamin
by the liver and Vitamin A by the intestines.
Helps promote energy and is needed to help
repair liver damage caused by alcohol.
Lecithin enables fat to be disbursed
and removed from the body.
• ENTIRE CYCLE:
Baby Aspirin
Take only one (1) per day.
a/k/a Children's Aspirin - 81 mg
Start at any time of cycle.
Aspirin is known to suppress natural
killer cells in the uterus, so it is used
for those with immune problems.
Because Aspirin thins your blood,
it also improves blood flow to the ovaries,
improving follicle development,
and improves blood flow to the uterus,
improving the quality of the uterine lining.
This increases the odds that implantation will
be successful. Also, during pregnancy, it will help
prevent miscarriage or fetal demise in those
prone to blood clots. Having blood clots form in the
placenta and/or umbilical cord is the cause
of many of these pg losses.
• AF TO OVULATION:
Evening Primrose Oil "EPO"
1,000 IU per day should be taken
only from Cycle Day 1 to Ovulation.
Do not take EPO after ovulation because
EPO causes uterine contractions
which may interfere with implantation.
EPO is a good source of
Essential Fatty Acids "EFA".
All living cells need fatty acids
for rebuilding and producing new cells.
EFAs are used by the body to produce
substances that send messages.
These messages trigger the important
events that need to occur each cycle!
Those important events? Hormones
• OVULATION TO AF:
Flax Seed Oil "FSO"
2,000 mg per day should be taken.
Flax Seeds are rich in omega-3
Essential Fatty Acids "EFA"
magnesium, potassium and fiber
to continue steady level of EFA
(EFO is EFA) throughout cycle.
• WEEK BEFORE OVULATION:
Guaifenesin Syrup
a/k/a Robitussin and Robi
DO NOT EXCEED 6 doses in 24 hours.
The Guaifenesin Syrup merely thins the mucus
you already have making more it
sperm friendly
easier to swim to their destination!
• ENTIRE CYCLE:
DONG QUAI
500 mg capsules - 2 caps 3 times a day!
Used for centuries by the Chinese restore cycle.
Also known to help with vaginal dryness.
I suggest you use Dong Quai to bring AF back
then take Vitex to keep yourself regular. [/SIZE]

You have mail as well! :)
 
I'd be keen to read that book too - not that I think we'll head down that path just yet but just so I am well informed and prepared if we ever need to thanks kiwi xx
 
That's awesome thanks kiwi! The only thing I'm not sure about is the red raspberry leaf. As its a uterine tonic & can induce labour it's advised to not take it after 20weeks, but can be taken from 36 to tone the uterus making contractions more effective/efficient. I did loads of research on it before Maggie was born and used it from 37weeks and had a 6.5hour labour!
 
What is the Red Raspberry ? Is it in a capsule form? :)
 
You can take red raspberry in different forms, tea or capsules. I used the capsules but I know lots of people use the tea as its cheaper! You can buy it from the chemist or vitamin store.
 
actually just looked at what I sent all you girls and I am sorry I LIED.... it is not 30-40 pages but about 130 pages WHOOPS Sorry about that. :blush:
Happy reading though :)
 
Hahahaha I will let you away with the length :winkwink: Good reading for when I am sick :) :happydance:
 
up and about to make dinner, mostly in a better mood, I apologize to you all as well, I have no right to be in a super depressed or bad mood, not when i've been so blessed recently with a bfp. But cant shake this weirdly bad feeling, but OH let me have a big cry and sleep and she's tried to convince me everything is going to fine and go smoothly, as she thinks nothing will go wrong, and I'd love to go back to that ignorant blissful state where I thought the same- once your pregnant, your pregnant, but i've learned so much on this site about what can go wrong and its got to me in the middle of the night last night i think. But I shall remain positive and hopeful as that's the healthy thing to do, and push all bad thoughts out and be a happy little vegemite!
130 pages of pure TTC goodness, way to go Kiwi!! And congrats on winning your game yesterday!!! I shall be bugging someone for that in the future as I will most likely download it and lose it immediately!!
now for home cooked dinner - good for the soul!!

:headspin:
