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

[swedengirl]

This is what I took and I took 2 pills morning and night so 400mg a day. My OH took 2 per day.

I’m afraid I don’t know anything about progesterone cream at all though!

 

[KeepTryinLuv]

So I got my BFP!!!!!!!! I can’t believe it. On three tests- even a digital!!!


Im literally here sobbing I thought this wasn’t going to happen!

OMG, Sweeden! I'm so happy for you! It's been such a long road and I've been lurking silently cheering you ladies on... so nice to see BFPs.



Nice to see strong lines. It's torture to see faint lines and wonder if they're evaps. No doubt there!

Thanks hun and what maca do you take? Do you mind me asking how old you are? I know they say for the likes of me and hunny ubiquonal is best as it is the strongest form but it’s so expensive!!! I’m going to try my cream one more time

 

[Tesh23]

Sweden your tests def look like they have progression! And also the internet cheapies usually take longer to show a more solid line. I def think you have a strong bean in there!

Did you take the q10 throughout your cycle or until you confirmed ovulation?

Wantingagirl I have only used progesterone cream once when I was trying to conceive my ds but all it did was give me horrible symptoms and pms so I stopped after the first cycle I tried it.

I still have a very light bleed from af, going on cd5 now so that’s quite long for me as I’m usually done by 3-4 days. Maybe the maca? But overall my af was much better this cycle. I’m going to try and get the q10 today and start with it tonight. It really is so pricey so I may just do it until I confirm Ov.

Should I continue to take maca after I confirm Ov? Just praying it balances out my hormones. Thanks Sweden I really hope this cycle or the next are lucky ones!

In what I’ve read you have to take q-10 every day and it takes 3 months to take affect. You can take maca until ovulation but i took it all cycle long

What symptons did you get from the cream I seemed ok xx

 

[swedengirl]

Yes I took the q10 all cycle. I think this would have been my third cycle taking it- although I increased my dosage this cycle from 200 to 400.

I’m definitely feeling pregnant now and bloated like crazy so look pregnant too! My MIL was eyeing me up today and I could see she was wondering. I showed super early with DD- at 11 weeks people starting congratulating me. But this must just be bloat as it’s soooooo early!

Interesting within my sachet there is 700mg of ubiquinone not ubiquonal not sure if I should be on the stronger form but it’s so expensive. Your hubby is on the ubiquonine too but 200? Was toying whether hubby should take them. What Maca did you take hun? Xx

Oh sorry I forgot to say about the maca. I’ve attached pics! It also has stuff in Swedish which says there is 320mg of maca, and 180mh camu camu powder! I didn’t know that there was or even know what camu camu is when taking it!! Whoops!

Also I’m about to turn 30!

Thanks hun! I worry I need to be on the ubiquonal form (so expensive) I’m 38 hubbys 40! Cool I’ll try Maca soon how long do you think o should leave it before adding anything? I’m one month into my pre conceive hubbys just on Wellman xx

Thank u! I’m in half a mind of whether to stop maca after Ov or carry on all cycle. I actually quite love taking it lol I think I’m getting addicted to it.

I had extremely sore boobs and horrible breakouts on the progesterone cream which I never used to have when I was first ttc. I think my progesterone was fine though at that time and it was just my estrogen that was low. The soy helped increase my estrogen which balanced my cycle and I ended up conceiving after two months on it.

I took my first dose of 320g of q10 today along with my folic acid and maca. I may try to take omega 3 if I get a chance to get to the shops in time. But won’t be taking anything more than that. Tomorrow will be cd6 for me and I’m wondering if I will end up ovulating later than my usual cd13. I may have to get some ovulation tests they’re so darn expensive here and if I order online I may not get them in time.

Oh no lol. It prob is just the hormones kicking in causing you to feel bloated! Tomorrow you should be officially late am I right? How does it work over there? When do you go for your first scan/confirm bloods?

 

[swedengirl]

Where are you in your cycle wantingagirl?

Tesh if you can I’d add Omega 3, I always take that, although in higher doses when TTC. I think it’s super good for TTC. Also I read maca can delay Ov so it might be the case, and I sympathise as OPKs are SO expensive!

I think I Ovd the day before FF said I did, so according to me I was late yesterday. According to FF I’m late today. I’ll call the midwife today and she’ll book me in ASAP for a test and a health info conversation. But no scan until 12 weeks here but we will get a private one at week 8 as I’ll need confirmation everything is going in the right direction. My tests show definite progression today so starting to relax a little!

I’m so glad!

When I took Maca it brought my ovulation forward I think it affects everyone differently.

I’m cd7 hun xx

 

[swedengirl]

I would definitely wait until the start of your next cycle to take maca- I always like to add things at the start of a cycle but maybe that is just me!

I’m so sorry!! I got caught up with all the other messages and just remembered I forgot to reply to you!!

Thank you so much!! Yes so nice to have strong clear lines! Baby dust to you!!

 

[TayBabes92]

Congratulations Sweden!! I saw the other day your faint line and I finally jumped on tonight to see and update and it’s a definite amazing BFP!!

I haven’t been online for ages, I was trying to take a step back from obsessing over TTC and relax.

Last cycle ended up lasting for 41 days! Normally O is around CD22 but this cycle it was CD27. I was taking Maca for all of cycle 3 and tracking O was hard having high fertility OPK’s for a week before a very short surge. I stopped taking Maca in cycle 4 and I don’t know what happened but no O until CD27. Cycle 5 now and I am trying soy again because the first time was my only shorter cycle with O on CD19. I am starting iodine drops, zinc drops, L-Carnitine, CoQ10 and of soy doesn’t work this cycle I’m trying Vitex to even out my cycles. I’m currently not taking anything except melatonin for my sleep which I have to stop soon because it can delay ovulation (never ending lol).

Wantingagirl I haven’t seen much of a difference with other women taking Ubiquinol over Ubiquinone. I read from the BioCeuticals website: “Ubiquinol is the reduced (active) form of coenzyme Q10. As the active form of coenzyme Q10, ubiquinol has superior absorption and higher bioavailability than other forms of coenzyme Q10 such as ubiquinone/ubidecarenone.“

From the sounds of things it’s personal preference but if your already on the CoQ10 I would wait until your finished then decide.

 

[wantingagirl]

So I’m going to stick to the sachets but how long would you stick to them for?

I was thinking on putting hubby on the Q-10 but couldn’t decided ubiquonal or ubiqunine and what dose? My idea was doing that before he try’s the sachets as they are so expensive. We have 4 children he has 5 or just leave it for a few more months to see if it happens for me first when do you think? Xx

I think they say ubiquonal for older people as it’s harder to break down I’m
Also clueless on what dose. At the min in the sachet my q-10 version is 700mg

Just stopping in to say hi to you gals! Been a while since I have checked in, but saw @swedengirl finally got her BFP in the 2 week wait forum (I still watch the thread like a hawk hoping you all catch your sticky beans )

@Tesh23 how are you girl?!

Hope you all are doing well and having a great summer! We are moving into our 3rd trimester in just one more week. Can't believe how fast it has gone and we still have so much to do!

Thanks Tay!! Hope you get your BFP soon. Sorry about the long cycles- they suck!
