Soy Cycle Buddies 2019 <3 1BFP on second soy cycle 2 BFPs Non-soy cycle

[KeepTryinLuv]

I bought some Theracough today as that has the active ingredient. I do normally have pretty good CM but guess it can't hurt and I am up for trying it!

Yes, Theracough will work!

I see that it ONLY has Guaifenesin --- without any Dextromethorphan (it dries you up).

Some syrups have a mixture of Guaif & Dextro and that won't work.

You did good.


Too bad I didn't get to use it this cycle.

I do have Pre-Seed but that's external and Vicks (or Theracough) is internal and natural since it's your own CM.

Soy seems to be doing something!!!

It's Day 11 and my temps are still low. So I was very surprised and happy about that, since I started soy very late on Day 6 and only for 3 days.

I was just about to go get Vick's to improve my fertile CM and start trying when I got a positive-looking OPK on day 10.

It's better than ovulating by Day 9 but I figured soy didn't work and I missed this cycle since we didn't BD enough.

But to my surprise, despite a high OPK and strong ovulation aches, my temp has stayed down the past 2 days!

So we did manage to BD every day for 3 days.

Today I did get a blazing red OPK and I'm still feeling strong ovulation aches.

So I think I O tomorrow on Day 12 and we get one more day to try!

It will be interesting to see when my temps rise this time. Here are my OPKs:

Wow that’s a def positive! Glad it’s pushed it back a bit that’s just what happened to me only I went from CD9 to CD14 so really thought I just wasn’t going to ov that month! Fingers crossed for you, hope you get a nice temp rise soon!

Hope your all doing ok, I’m 6 weeks today! Not too many symptoms, I get very tired during the day and have some on off nausea. Boobs still very sore and have grown quite a lot! Lol but otherwise feeling ok. Got a private scan booked for next week just to make sure bub is growing ok, 12 weeks is such a long wait!

I'm on CD 13 and my temp is finally starting to rise!

So I went from CD 9 to CD 12. Now the waiting starts!!

It's so cute how my husband is starting to get into the TTC science.

He asks me from work, how were the OPK tests? I tell them negative but I explain that once they're positive "the main day" is within 1 or 2 days but we have to watch for a temp rise to confirm.

So the past 3 mornings he's been asking "how was your temp?" as soon as he opens his eyes. Hahaha!

He's such a rough Italian manly man, so it's funny to see.

6 weeks already?

I think you have some company since Tay just posted a double line on the other thread.

Maybe there's another soy baby! Ahem... @TayBabes92???

 

[TayBabes92]

KeepTryinLuv you are hilarious!! My temp seems to take 2 days to rise high as well which is where I think I went wrong this cycle. I was a day off on ovulation from the looks of things because today I got a vvvfl on frer. So maybe we have another soy baby! First time trying soy too

Trying not to get super excited but I got a vvvvfl at 7am then I held for 5 hours and did another frer it got slightly darker! I’m going to test again tomorrow morning and force myself not to test tonight lol.

 

[swedengirl]

Looks sooooooo promising Tay!! Can’t wait to see tomorrow’s test!!

 

[Tesh23]

Hey ladies!

Sorry I’ve been mia. I have had a really busy and stressful two weeks what with exams, birthday parties including my son’s, work and other events all happening at the same time. It’s been chaotic and super stressful. And I’ve still got one more exam tomorrow.

We didn’t get to bd a lot just once on cd12 (but at least it was fun, random and spontaneous and not forced like it’s been these last few months). I doubt we caught the eggy as it was just one time, but I know all it takes is one so I’m waiting it out. Didn’t do any soy or anything this cycle just had a normal one. Noticed slightly less fertile cm but it was there a bit before Ov.

I’m cd6 today and no symptoms other than a bit of ovulation pain and creamy cm. Boobs are a bit tender this morning but that happened last cycle too so af should make her appearance next Sunday.

How is everyone else doing? I haven’t had a chance to catch up properly, but Ana I can’t beleive you’re over 6 weeks already! Please share how your scan goes

Tay any news on that test?

Sweden and Keeptrying, how are things going?

 

[swedengirl]

Hey Tesh!!!
We missed you! I hope your exams are going ok! It sounds like a really relaxed approach to TTC this cycle for you and that is meant to work wonders so Fx it’s your month!!

Afm- I feel more relaxed in general about TTC but not necessarily taking a relaxed approach. What I mean is I didn’t spend the past week stressing I might Ov early this cycle when my OH is away which I would have done previous cycles. But I am taking a very active trying approach this cycle. I’ve reduced refined carbs and added seeds to my diet. Also eating one avocado and one egg a day as heard they are good fertility foods and help replace carbs! Drinking one cup RLT and taking omega 3&6, b50complex, maca root and q10 coenzyme.
I’m trying the clearblue advanced again now I’m not taking soy but also going to try the strips so I can also see if I getting close with them if the clearblue is giving me high for days on end again! June is a sentimental month for me so hoping it brings some TTC luck for me!
We have been referred to the hospital for testing now but unlikely to get a time until at least August as everything shuts down here for like 2 months for the summer break. But feels nice to know we have at least started the process.

 

[TayBabes92]

Tesh - So glad to see you back it’s been quiet. Honestly you only need the one time to make a baby and at least it was fun and spontaneous. Sending you baby dust for this month

Sweden - How are you feeling this cycle being off carbs and adding the healthy fats? I hope this will be your cycle then you won’t have to go for testing. FX’d!!!

Afm - I’m in pregnancy limbo My lines from 11-13dpo never got any darker but stayed the same. I tested my frer tests with water and even had my mum do one to make sure they weren’t giving false positives. I’m 14dpo now and AF was due today or tomorrow and I’m just waiting out until 16dpo to buy some clearblue tests or AF to show up. My boobs are still sore and now swollen and heavy, my veins are protruding all over my hands, arms and feet like in previous pregnancies but my bloating now only comes and goes with my (TMI) gas I plan to go to the doctors if AF doesn’t show up or my lines are still faint. I believe it will be a chemical pregnancy unless I somehow ovulated late or twice

 

[swedengirl]

I’m actually feeling good Tay! Much more energy!

Sorry you’re in limbo that sucks! I’m guessing you don’t temp? Hopefully you’ll know more soon as the limbo is the worst.

Sweeden,I see your OPKs are giving you "high" now! So FW starts!

Everything shuts down for 2 months during the summer over there, too? I thought it was just Italy that grinds to a halt and everyone goes on vacation at the same time.

Didn’t do any soy or anything this cycle just had a normal one. Noticed slightly less fertile cm but it was there a bit before Ov.

I’m cd6 today and no symptoms other than a bit of ovulation pain and creamy cm.

Tesh, at 6 dpo you were still getting ovulation pain, too? I'm 5 DPO and I keep getting strong side pokes. Interesting.

I’m 14dpo now and AF was due today or tomorrow and I’m just waiting out until 16dpo to buy some clearblue tests

Tay, how are you today? You test again tomorrow?

 

[KeepTryinLuv]

It's a calm two week wait.

5 DPO so it's very early.

Not much going on but my temps have been going up more than usual and I get random strong side pokes that might be left over ovulation cramps.

Ah, yes! And the progesterone medication is making me SO HUNGRY! I'll eat anything on my path...

Tay - fingers crossed af stays away for you I can def see a line on that test!

Tesh! Thought you had disappeared lol sounds like you have had a hectic couple of weeks! Good luck for the rest of your tww, really hope you get your BFP soon!

Sweden - Glad your feeling good at the moment, that’s great about the hospital referral, hopefully you get your BFP before then!

Nothing much to report here.. nausea and tiredness killing me during the day, eases off for a couple hours in the evening. Sickness tablets are helping I’d be a lot worse without them so thankful for that. I know I can’t believe I’m almost 7 weeks! Scan is on Thursday morning I’ll be 7+1, Im so excited but very nervous, just hoping everything is ok.

Fingers crossed for more soy babies soon! Xx

 

[Tesh23]

Aw Sweden I’ve missed all of you too x

It’s great you are taking a healthy approach to ttc. That actually worked for me with conceiving ds now that I look back! Not long for Ov for you now yay!

Tay any news? Are you still in limbo? Fx for good news!

Keeptrying you’re 7dpo today right? How are your symptoms?

Ana one more day until your scan eek! Can’t wait for your update!

Afm 9 dpo and I feel pretty normal. Sore boobs started 6dpo but at 9dpo they are back to normal lol not sure why as they are usually sore leading up to AF which should be here this weekend. Nothing really else to report some creamy cm but I feel normal no cramping etc this entire tww it’s actually been quite pleasant not having symptoms.

I’ve also successfully managed to lose 1.5kg(about 3lbs) so I’m happy about that lol. I think it’s all the stress of this month. Everybody in my house has had the flu recently as well and by some miracle I haven’t got it yet and hopefully I dont!

 

[swedengirl]

Tesh fx the flu stats away from you! Glad you’re not having too many symptoms which add to the crazy and can be unpleasant! Fx you get an unexpected BFP!
Great job on the weight loss! It’s the upside to stressful times for me too.

Tay I saw on the testing thread you thought you had a chemical. I hope you’re doing ok. Hugs!

Keepluvin- yes everything closes here for the summer. It’s crazy! Your temps are looking awesome. Fx for a BFP! When are you planning on testing?

Anababe- so excited for a scan update!

 

[TayBabes92]

Yes sadly my hopeful soy baby ended in a chemical My tests were only slightly darker each day then my temp dipped at 16dpo and I woke with pains and heavy bleeding at 17dpo. I did a frer yesterday after the bleeding slowed down but it was super faint barely there. Last night I ended up having horrible pain similar to how I felt afterbirth with my daughters and the bleeding got even worse. Today my cramping was minimal and bleeding worse in the morning but eased up. I haven’t bothered with testing as my temp dropped even more significantly this morning and all symptoms have gone away. Yesterday was a crappy day but I’m better today. Hoping everyone is doing well xx

 

[Anababe]

Hi!

How are you all doing?

So sorry it turned out to be a chemical Tay fingers crossed for next cycle xx

Well I had my scan today, I was super nervous but all was perfect. Nice healthy baby with a strong heartbeat. It’s was very emotional but so glad I went. I’m measuring 2 days behind what I thought so not too bad, I’m 6+5 and have exactly same due date as my youngest daughter, 11th Jan (She arrived 4 days late on 15th) so hoping I give birth a bit earlier so not got same birthdays!

Hope you are all doing ok xx

 

[TayBabes92]

Ana you do so well with birth month and year patterns with your kiddies first two born in the same month 2 years apart. Second two born in the same month and 2 years part. Your youngest and now this LO with be born in the same month and 2 years apart as well! Everything seems to happen in twos for you that is so awesome lol sorry for the random facts

 

[Tesh23]

Sorry to hear about your chemical Tay

Ana that’s awesome news! So glad all is on track with baby

Afm I started spotting at 10dpo last night and seems like I’m going to be starting cd1 today as I’m beginning a light bleed. So I had a 10 day lp this cycle as opposed to my usual 12-13 dpo. Not sure if the stress had caused it to come on early or not but it’s really been a hectic month for me. Really praying the soy didn’t permanently mess up my cycle

 

[swedengirl]

Glad to hear it went well Anababe!!!! So exiting!

Tesh. Sorry about the short LP. Have you stopped taking supplements? Maybe it’s that? Or as you said it could totally be the stress!
