Hi Guys, I am really stressed and panicking. Shockingly I got a BFP yesterday at 10DPO- my luteal phase is usually 10 days long and the follicular phase of my chart this month has been AWFUL so really didn't expect it- but I did start taking the aspirin, Vit C & D, CoQ10 after O so am thinking maybe this has helped?

However today my HPT is lighter than yesterdays, and with my last pregnancy the lines at this stage were v dark, and got progressively darker. So I'm worried it's a progesterone issue to do with my short luteal phase. Does anyone have any ideas what I can do? My doc won't give me progesterone, so I've ebayed some (cyclogest pessaries) and praying desperately that it arrives tomorrow. Have also order Emirita Progest cream. Am really clutching at straws.

Has anyone read AngelBumps Fertility Protocol?

https://www.fertilityfriends.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=226042.0

she recommends 500mg B6 for the 2WW and early pregnancy for progesterone, but prefaces the recommendation with loads of caveats as it is a very high dosage. I've been taking her recommended dosage in my B Complex in the hope it will help my progesterone, which was measured at 36 at 8DPO (for my CD21 bloods).

Any suggestions really gratefully received. Just want to hold on to my bean.

36 is really good hun! try not to panic... It could be that the hpt didn't have as much dye in it or urine was more diluted than before. Please for the love of god cancel that progesterone order! you have no idea what's actually in them and could be doing more harm than good.

My fmu was ALWAYS different so I stopped testing and got better results with smu

Congratulations honey

MeliH - you need to give me this CD13 O maybe that 200mg or 160mg was too much for you and that's why you had a headache the next day. Same thing happened to me when i took 200mg. With 160mg i have no headaches.

NDTaber - very good signs, you must be very close to O now

roopachoo - sorry can't help you much with that but you def should try this natural progesterone cream, it might help if your prog. levels are low.

AFM - nothing new to boring me lol Hoping to O even earlier than i did last cycle. By the time i O, you guys will be on your second round of O already unless it will be your lucky month that ends with bfp

 

[Wytrease]

Well ladies I o'ed 2 days later this cycle I think it's because I just messed everything up this cycle I didn't finish my soy and I missed a few days of my vitamins due to me being ill but if we don't get pregnant this month I will be back on schedule with my soy and my other vitamins. GOOD LUCK ladies I hope you all get that beautiful BFP soon

 

[NDTaber9211]

YES! Positive OPK! Finally! I literally started dancing when I saw the pos Now to actually O and have my temps confirm.

 

[Meli_H]

NDTaber

Yay! Now, get to

Roopachoo,

Congrats on your bfp!!! I’m sorry but I don’t have any suggestions to offer. Hopefully BeautifulD is right when she says maybe your urine was diluted!

Ice,

Now I’m thinking that I actually o’d on Weds CD14 and I’m 2dpo today. I guess FF will confirm it after I enter tomorrow’s temps.

Maybe you’re right about the soy and the headaches. I will see how the rest of the cycle goes before I decide what I’ll take next month if needed! -- [just trying to keep PMA] !

FX that your o is even earlier than last month’s!!

Wytrease,

It looks like you’re 2dpo and o’d on CD13, correct? That’s a good o date, as far as I know. It doesn’t sound as if you ‘messed’ anything up by not finishing your soy. Then again, what do I know? I’m new at this soy stuff!

Hi ladies do you mind if I join?

I have PCOS and on metformin, and the doctor wanted to start me on Clomid right away, but I wanted to try something more natural first.

So now that AF finally started, I am doing soy CD 3-8. 120mg, 120, 120, 160mg, 160mg.

The only problem is today we found out that hubby had a relapse with his testicular cancer, so he'll have to do chemo. So chances are if I actually ovulate, it'll be while he's doing chemo.
So I'm not sure if we'll be able to BD at all! I am so sad and upset that the cancer came back AND at the worst possible time.

Still continuing the soy because I want to see if it makes my body ovulate.

 

[NDTaber9211]

Oh minuet I am so sorry. My husband was diagnosed with hodgkins lymphoma the first time we decided to try. I know how soul crushing it is to have someone u love go thorough such a difficult time. Message me anytime u ever need someone go talk to. I'll keep u both in my thoughts. I hope the soy helps u o. It's always good to have a game plan when the time is right.

Wow so sorry to hear that, that must have been so difficult for you! Thank you for the encouragement.

 

[NDTaber9211]

It definitely was hard but he pulled through and is doing great. Just had a clean check up scan Wednesday. Fx your Dh sails through his chemo and u guys are blessed with a beautiful baby.

My temps are weird this cycle. I wonder what can cause so low temps that i have had in the last few days. Room temp etc has been the same

 

[BeautifulD]

Ice I would always get super low temps the day before O sometimes even a few days before

 

[IceQueen86]

Interesting. Not sure if that's the case for me since im just CD19, but it would be great if that is the reason for my super low temps So if you had these low temps before O, did they shoot up after O or did they rise slowly?

 

[BeautifulD]

Again it would depend... I would see a significant rise the day after O though most times

 

[BeautifulD]

Just had a looksy at your chart and it looks like yesterday may well have been o day

 

[NDTaber9211]

My temps are always low. I guess I am just naturally cooler then everyone. I never got my low temp before O. I think that was because I ovulated during the day so my temps never caught it. The temp shot up after o for me. I've seen charts with a slow rise O temp though.

 

[IceQueen86]

Well if i did O yesterday then that's some seriously early O for me! Let's see what kind of temp i will get tomorrow. You girls got me all excited now LOL

 

[BeautifulD]

I have everything crossed for higher temps tomorrow for you hun
