Arg.. back to just light spotting?!?! Its now been three days of on/off spotting- a small amount of red this morning then back to spotting... Is this normal for the first post MC AF? It didn't happen with my first loss but that one was a lot earlier...

 

[Ladybirdgb]

My first period after my miscarriage was possibly just as heavy as my miscarriage for two days then just light bleeding. We are all different tho

meh!!!! between we had a few very hot nights last week and I had drinks on 2 nights my temps were up and now I ov I think I am 3dpo due to creamy cm day after pos ov pos saliva pos dip. and FF are not giving me crosshairs.. so Im thinking 3dpo but because we have summer and hot nights were before I ov its not giving me the crosshairs.. meh! nothing I can do about that..

hope everyone gets af soon if ur wanting it and bfp's if ur in your tww.. im honestly changing my frame of mind regarding ttc.. i've done all I can do and thats it.. where as before I would constantly worry and have a go at myself for not BD enough.. even if I had BD the day after I thought i ov it would of been no good as I had creamy cm and its not friendly.

ARGHHH@ttc!!

So I know the feeling re trying to be more relaxed re bd I wanted to kill my poor dh on Tuesday night because he was to tired to bd poor thing I had jumped on him every day since Friday lol I need to chill out

I am sooooooo warm at the mo cant even take my temp as my digital thermometer has gone funny keeps telling me im hypothermic tried to take my daughters temp to, to make sure it was just me and she is a lot colder lol

Bug - after my mmc's in particular, I spotted for about 3 days before AF started proper.

Ok very strange, I've just started spotting. I usually spot during the TWW due to my cervical abrasion but I'm only on CD11 and not expecting to OV until Monday. I've been taking epo, pregnacare and omega 3 and drinking raspberry leaf tea this cycle, can any of those make you O early?

 

[Soanxious]

epo will give u nice ewcm.. pregnancare nope.. omega 3 nope.. none of those will induce ov... I thought raspberry leaf tea was for later stages of pregnancy to induce labour? my daughter took it 2 weeks before due date... is that new to you?

 

[Button#]

I googled it and found people saying rlt had made them O early. I read somewhere drinking it was supposed to help the uterine lining if you drink it between AF and O. I'm going to temp in the morning as that should give me an idea about whether I've OVd or no. I was going for the relaxed approach this cycle and this has thrown me a bit but never mind!

 

[Pixiedust22]

The relaxed approach does sound like a good idea... Dunno if I can manage it though! Waiting is hard. Sounds like you guys have the right idea even if it doesn't always work...

 

[Renaendel]

I tried drinking RLT until ovulation this month for the first time. This is the one I used as the rest of the teas were artificially flavored.

I am going to have to get a new box though because my husband has been stealing it as he likes the flavor.

 

[Button#]

Tell him to get his own Renae!

 

[Soanxious]

lol@hubby stealing it

it don't sound tasty to me... maybe im just fussy..

 

[Button#]

It's not as bad as I thought it would be but I wouldn't choose it over a normal cuppa.

 

[Soanxious]

I like the twinnings fruity tea... if its like that im fine.. if its like camomile or green tea then nope

 

[Squig34]

I've heard that RLT is ghastly, but can't help you on whether it affects o, Button. I hope you got plenty of BD in anyway, just in case you're early.

I was ttc buddies with one girl who had a thin uterine lining. She conceived in the cycle she started taking Raspberry tea. She said she took it to make the lining thick.

 

[Wishing1010]

I drank fertilitea (it's a mix of herbs and has Vitex in it). It was really great for my cycles! It was Just hard remembering to drink multiple cups of it a day, especially if I got busy at work. I like decaf green tea and also unsweetened black tea. I haven't been drinking much though, just a cup here or there.

 

[Soanxious]

i drink gallons of Water... then Ribena, then more Water... now and again a black coffee.. maybe once every 6 weeks..

 

[confuzion]

I always drank RLT from AF to O. I grew to love the taste and hated having to stop come the tww lol. My husband drank it with me a few times too. I miss it...

I drank a few different brands. The yogi brand was one. Also one by Traditional Medicinals, and another by Alvita. All tasted the same to me. I think Alvita was my favorite because it tasted the strongest.
