Soya Isoflavones Cycle Buddies! <3

Looks positive to me!

 

[Xokittycatxo]

If call it a positive!

 

[fairyy]

Thanks for the opinions ladies.

I think it's positive too. I got some red tinged mucus along with ewcm (ovulation spotting) last evening. I was stuck to the toilet due to frequent bowel movements yeaterday. I was having some pain on my right lower abdomen since Monday. It was kind of strong yesterday.

Thought I'd update on here- my babies are twins &#128515; identical though, so nothing to do with the Soy- just pot luck!

Congrats Loraloo! That's so exciting!
I would be over the moon if we ended up with twins. They run in both sides of my family as well as in DH's side. H&H 9 months!

Dunno about the bms but the red tinged cm is good! Hope you got some BD in.

I thought my bleeding was done by Thursday afternoon. Just some brownish blood in the morning and not even enough for a liner. We had sex late that afternoon early evening and I felt really really wet and thought ah geez I'm still bleeding. Sure enough all that banging on my cervix must have shaken up what was left because I had some bright red blood and some cramps that literally took my breathe away. Will not be making that mistke again!
Today is day 4 of si for me. Went with 3-5, 160 and 6-7, 200.
Adding some flax during my lp because I heard that helps lpd.

I also got a new women's one daily and the herb blend includes chaste berry but the whole blend is only 50mg. I can't see that smal amount being able to counter soy since I've heard you need about 1000 -1200 mg of vitex to be effective.

Golden...yay sounds like dr visit went well and hopefully the metoformin works like it should.

Lora, added your twin news on the front page.

Sorry ladies, I was away for couple of days. Xokittycatxo I had the same kinda spotting after af too, I had af for three days and two days of spotting only when I wiped and it was sometimes brown and sometimes bright red. Since we both had the same thing, we can blame that on SI.

Anyways cd12 today, no sign of ovulation yet. I don't have cramps and opks are super negative and cm is still watery but creamy. I checked my saliva and I see partial fernin which means I will ovulate soon. I thought SI would make me ovulate earlier than last month but I guess I was wrong.

 

[fairyy]

Xokittycatxo: Soy prolonged my AF each time. I was wiping bright red on cd4 & cd5 too.

Golden: I really missed you. I was hoping the same that SI would make me ovulate earlier than last month but I was wrong.

But this cycle I really felt some soreness where my right ovary is. It was sore for quite few days and then on Thursday it was super sore. I got my first positive opk which I thought to be almost positive on that day too along with abundance of ewcm and got ovulation spotting too. BM was bad too. It wasn't a pleasant day. Then on Friday my opk was positive ( both the lines are of same color), ewcm was also there. Then on Saturday I felt normal, no pain, no visible cm but positive opk again. This time the test line was darker than control line. I wasn't temping regularly this cycle so I don't know for sure when I ovulated. But according to FF I ovulated on Saturday.

We DTD on cd11, cd13, cd15(+opk), cd16(+opk), cd17(strong + opk but no BD), cd18(BD in AM). We couldn't do any better than this. We tried to BD on cd17 PM but couldn't.

This cycle was different from last SI cycle. I hope and pray that the outcome would be different too

Missed u too fairy! Bleeding before ovulation is a really good sign!! All that BDing too, I hav high hope for u this cycle.

This cycle s different for me as well, I don't hav any random cramps. Also got ewcm yesterday but it was little creamy still. We are aiming to BD everyday until cd17-18 so we are covered

 

[Powell130]

Kittycat- that's always happened to me; if I'm still spotting a little and we have sex it always makes the flow start again I learned to wait until spotting has been gone for at least a day lol its annoying

 

[GoldenRatio]

Cd14 here, still no sign of ovulation. I wonder what delayed my ovulation this cycle

 

[fairyy]

When do you normally ovulate Golden ? Is it always around cd13/14 ?

It is normal to have occasional deviation in cycles once in a while. Plus soy might be delaying ovulation. Don't worry hun. It will happen within next couple of days.

I usually ovulate cd14-15 but last two cycles SI was making me ovulate earlier but this cycle i started taking inositol too so maybe thats why i may ovulate later.

Also my face is super dry! im usually very oily so this is very unusual for me, my face and lips literally are falling out

 

[fairyy]

May be inositol is delaying ovulation.
Do you have any cramps or ovary pain ?

I had pain from Monday till Thursday last week and on Thursday it was more intense along with ovulation spotting and +opk.

On Saturday when I was waiting to do my last opk for this cycle, DH asked why are you taking ovulation test everyday. I said not everyday. Then he said that he thinks I have already ovulated and wanted me to tell when I had my period so that he can calculate when I have ovulated. lol
I said no you can't say. It doesn't happen on cd15 every cycle. Some cycles it happens on cd14 or cd17. He must be tired of all the BDing I told him that I got a +opk each day for consecutive three days.

 

[GoldenRatio]

Oh DH checks my opks too! but he is annoyed that ovulation doesnt happen the same time every cycle. He also had hard time believing that only one day of month egg is available.

I hav no ovulation pain or cramps this cycle. Like non! last cycle i had cramps almost entire cycle and ovulation pain was noticeable. I cant even check cm because of BDing everyday. But my saliva microscope shows ferning which means i got the estrogen already. Probably gonna ovulate tomorrow or cd16.

 

[fairyy]

It is funny when men try to know about ovulation. I say to my husband that it is my body and I know it better. How can he know what is happening inside me and it isn't same every month like they think.

I also think you are going to ovulate around cd15 or cd16. I don't think it is going to be later than that.

 

[GoldenRatio]

ohhh i got some ovulation cramps! i think todays opk will be positive. Will report back after work

 

[fairyy]

Yay
Hoping for a +opk for you.

 

[GoldenRatio]

well my opk was negative yesterday but will see again with tonights opk. My saliva microscope is giving me full fernin so im pretty close to getting positive opk, i think.

DH was asking how long we have to BD hehehehe poor guy. If we can BD until friday, it will be great

Is SI causing weight gain???

 

[TJMYANGEL]

HIYA I DONT WANT TO SOUND silly but is it just soy or the tablets that have red clover etc aswell as soy
