i got BAD pinching in my ovary... i thought there was no way i could be pregnant if my ovaries felt like they were ovulating all over again! i was wrong, of course lol. what CD are you?

I'm CD22 and i think i o'd CD15 or 16 (chart link is below). If my O date is right then i doubt i have any chance of being UTD this cycle as we werent able to BD at the right time.

if you had BD even 48 hours before O you still have a chance!

Unfortunately the BDing was 5 days beforehand I know that this is technically still possible but i get absolutely crap all CM. i really cant imagine spermies could live up there for that long

I have some more fun times here. Just came back from doc. I have a prolaped haemorrhoid!!

 

[lucyoz34]

Aw that sounds painful jazz hope something can be done about it. We're on the same cycle day, I Ov'd around cd13, and didn't bd in the right place either three days before and the day after. Remote is an understatement!! I did spot a little yesterday, but then last cycle I spotted from 7dpo till af came. All very strange. Looking. Forward to doing soy again, and given OH strict instructions when we need to BD!

I don't ever get ewcm just watery- and 1 maybe 2 days of it
This cycle I took epo and robitussin ( guef..)
And I'm on day 4 of lots of watery I'm not sure if I have ov yet maybe yest as I had a spike
But the epi and rob really helped- Im planning on ordering pressed online if I get af this month

Good luck jazz

i tried the robitussin a cycle before using pre-seed....it did nothing for me...and was gross! lol.

 

[Glowstar]

I def recommend conceive plus or pre-seed. I only ever get watery cm too.
ONLY cycle I EVER had ewcm was November last year!!! Since then mine has taken a permanent hike!!
Good luck to everyone in the TWW. I'm obviously not on soy yet until AF arrives.
Piles are a horrible thing PM and Jaz. Xx

lucy - yay for next cycle being our cycle!! at least now i have some idea of when i might O on soy!! i have read that spotting is normal with soy.

prettymachine - haha the haemorrhoid is a piece of cake compared to the horrible m/s i had when pregnant!! at least it hasnt happened at O time. that'd suck as i really dont want sexy times atm!!! i've got some special lubricant that is meant to aid conception and i plan on taking evening primrose oil next cycle to help as well. it is ridiculous all the damn pills i have!!

pdmcd17 - good to hear epo is helping! i plan on taking it next cycle!!

I'm just waiting!! (and dealing with a sick bub, fun fun ). I'm hoping that i'll have a decent LP this time since it was a ridiculous 8 days last cycle. My temp actually finally went up to usual LP temps today so i think my LP is definitely going to be longer, thank god. I am really looking forward to next cycle and giving it a really good go now that i know soy does help me O sooner.

 

[Glowbug]

Poppy. I cannot believe you're still posting on this thread and helping.
You are too sweet

 

[pdmcd17]

I have done 3 cycles of soy so i guess im on a break from it- any one know how long till i can take it again as unti soy i didnt ovm and it pushed my ov up to day 13 or 14 so a normal one!

oh yes i definitely had the mrning sickness too! i still get it a few days a week... and the hemmorroids...infact one come back yesterday... and i have spent probaby 22 of these 30 weeks constipated! i feel like such a stereotypical pregnant woman sometimes lol! except i never got emotional or weepy, and i never had weird cravings. lol.

the hemmorroids scare me because DH had them a couple years ago and had to have surgery for them! and then his health insurance didnt approve it even though they had pre-approved it so we still owe about 6,000 dollars on it, and have paid over 4 thousand already! its about 9,306.31 AUD in total

im sorry you are out this cycle, we are all sick over here too i was stuck in labor and delivery yesterday for hours from having such a high temp!

Girls can anyone help?? For the last two cycles everything has happened as normal, up until 8dpo when I start spotting right through till af at 15 dpo. Iv taken soy, epo and vitB complex this cycle, to see if it would help, but it's happened again. Prior to last month it'd never happened before. Has anyone any idea why? Or what's going on?? And more to the point what I can do about it!!?? Thanks girls, any info would be good.

Hope your all ok

I am on CD 14 and I just had an almost positive OPK, a tiiiiny bit of EWCM & some slight twinges!!! I have not ovulated before CD30 since ttc. I am praying that taking the soy may have actually shortened my cycles!!! I hope this is not a false alarm and that I may actually ovulate in the next few days!

Thanks Soili, massive help

I read somewhere that spotting was more normal when taking soy

Good luck! I think I O'd CD15-16 this cycle and usually I am after CD30 too!! fantastic stuff!!

Hi all, I'm on cycle 5 TTC and thinking about trying something to help speed things along. I'm 27 years old and had my Mirena IUD removed 3/4/11. My husband is 33, we're both active, in shape, and live a healthy lifestyle. I really didn't think it would take this long to get pregnant so last month we did some at-home fertility tests from ebay. Both came back normal so we're talking about seeing a fertility doctor next month in cycle 6. In the meantime, I think we've also decided to try soy but I really don't know anything about it. I haven't read through this whole thread yet but if anyone can give me the crash course, I'm all ears! Thanks!

im suprised you havent conceived yet! a friend of mine got pregnant about 3 weeks after getting mirena out!

when taking soy there are days you have to follow... the last one you can choose is cd5-9 so you would have to start them today! i didnt look if you are in the US, but if you are the only place i have seen them in-store is wal mart. they are labelled "soy isoflavones." anywhere else i am not sure... most of us need to order them online. you can take between 110mg to 160mg a day. i did 110mg when i got my + after 6 months unsuccessful TTC. everyone is different. one other thing i swear by is pre-seed! i would definitely see if you can find that around. MY personal last advice is to BD every other day until your OPKs start having color...then BD every day through your + OPK and one day after its gone negative, just for good measure thats how i did it. if you get the pre-seed i would used it only through the days your OPKs are getting darker until the day after, as it is a little $$! and remember that regular lube and saliva kill sperm so avoid those! good luck!
