[Stinas]

Ladies I hope everyone is doing well!!!

I am confused....last night after bd, my cm was bloody...and today all day I was spotting(more brown than red). I am confused...its super early for af...I was thinking either implantation bleeding(still early) or ovulation bleeding....what do you think?
I took soy cd 5-9. 160, 160, 160, 240, 240

Looks like it might be O bleeding since you do not have ch yet, although it looks like you've already had a bit of a temp shift. It's slight but it's there, am I the only one that sees it? My temp shift wasn't very big this cycle.

I dont know what to think! Im hoping its something good! DH is sick, so we dtd last night, but tonight he cant stop coughing, so i am being nice and letting him go to bed early lol
I noticed that my temps went up after cd 13...im thinking it was the soy, which should be good right? Im lost. Hopefully I get a spike tom. Im praying for a bfp this cycle. What a wonderful christmas gift that would be! I dont explain all the details of ttc to dh....he just does not get it, he is more of a tell me when to dtd type of guy...but he came to me randomly the other day and said if it works this time would it be "time" to tell everyone for christmas? It melted my heart a bit. I feel like a failure sometimes. I pray for my little soy baby!
Sorry for the rant!

Hi Stinas
I think it could be O bleeding. Although I'm not convinced you have Od yet. As long as the spotting goes away/doesnt get worse I wouldn't worry too much about it. If it turns into AF that means you had an annovulatory cycle. Try to keep bding everyother day until you get a clear temp. shift. Going by your other charts it seems like it takes a little bit for your body to gear up and O. Fx!

If you have long cycles (mine are about 36 days now), when is it best in your cycle to take soy?

I have been taking agnus castus, but i want to give it a miss this month. I am torn between taking soy or just having a natural cycle (only taking b complex)...... getting a bit dispondant now and don't want to give up the ttc but think maybe a natural month may be due soon.... still, if anyone knows when is best to take soy on a long cycle that would be great.

thanks

With a long or short cycle you take it like clomid. Cd 1-5 or cd 2-6 or cd 3-7 or 5-9. I think those are the right days. Some of the other girls will know better than I.

My cycles aren't completely regular, they range from 29-40 days! I would take it on clomid days. I took mine CD3-6, I am only CD10 right now, but I can already tell a difference in my CM. I am hoping I O earlier this month!

I'm still spotting...more of a heavier spot, but nothing like af. I'm confused. Is this good or bad? It's way too early for af. I have had two 28 day cycles in the past year...never anything near that short since. That was almost a year ago!!!

Maybe its just your body reacting to the spike of estrogen? 240mg is a lot of soy! I only took 110mg...I imagine 240 would up the estrogen a lot!

 

[Stinas]

I spoke too soon! AF was in full effect last night. Very upsetting...maybe I did take too much soy? 24 day cycle is super duper short for me so i probably did bring it on early. 36 days is usually early for me.
I am considering today as CD 2....I am ready to take soy again...but....should I take it cd 5-9 again but less dose? or should I take it earlier, less of a dose?

 

[prettymachine]

Well, everyone is different of course! But I did cd 2-6, 110mg consistently...never upped it. Obviously worked for me!

 

[poppy666]

Like PM says everyone different, i took on cd2-6 and cd3-7 160mg's-200mg's worked both times.

 

[Stinas]

These are what I was taking. They say each is 80mg soy.

I was taking two 5-7 and 3 8&9. So now I was thinking of taking one and up to two the last two days. Should I start tonight? I dk what to do. I am super upset af came and i just don't want to take it too late again.

 

[Stinas]

Decided to do cd 2-6. Started off with 80mg and will do 160mg cd 5&6.
What do you ladies think?

 

[prettymachine]

Sounds good! When you start to try preseed as well! That was my other secret weapon with the soy that got me my little angel that is currently in my lap eating =)

 

[JourneyTTC]

Holy cow I'm getting excited you guys! My temp keeps going up and I've been having cramps. Last night my gums started bleeding after I ate a taco salad without the shell from Taco Bell. It was so weird. My bb's are still sore, but that's normal. I've had belly button pain from around 2-3 dpo and it seems like it's only getting worse! I pray that this is it!

 

[poppy666]

Your chart looks well good my gums only bled when pregnant, when you testing?

 

[JourneyTTC]

I said I wasn't going to until tomorrow, but I'm still hanging on to my fmu now lol. I did wake up at 5:30 and went to the potty and then sucked down half a can of DR. Pepper though. I was dying of thirst. Think that will have it too diluted to poas now? I'm thinking about trying today. Only have 1 frer left, but the store has more. I just don't know how much longer I can stand it!

 

[JourneyTTC]

Oh man...I'm starting to get heartburn. Can Soy cause pg symptoms? Ugh I hope this isn't all in my head.

 

[poppy666]

Test later today im excited now
