Sticky Bean Dream Team Lounge

Twinkle, I have the same question about ovulation. Is temping the only way to know if you are? My doc says not to bother bc so few ppl do it right that it's not really accurate and it just causes stress. Also, I haven't heard anything about baby aspirin. I have heard that green tea is good though. I'm going to try and ween myself off coffee and switch.

Monomer, so sorry about the BFN!! Why would fertalaid stop Ovulation?

I was also thinking of ordering some fertalaid....and some zinc for my husband.

So fertilaid is suppose to be like a prenatal with the added features of vitex, red clover ect. Features that are suppose to help produce naturally healthy follices ovulate, and make it a happy uterus for a bean to stick lol probably more features but those are the three I remember. Women who were using ovulation strips which I'm not, a few were saying they didn't ovulate while taking it. I'm doubting that I didn't, But it's period day and no AF. I tested last night again, and negative. I have one test left and I'm holding out till Wednesday-> I do like the fertilaid though, and the fertilcm. I Found that while taking these products my acne insanely reduced to mere blemishes on my cheeks which I can handle, my skin looked healthier, and the cm I was getting was amazing, my cm right now is still creamy sticky texture<- sorry tmi, you can also take the maca with both the products above and it has an enhancing feature, stimulating ovulation healthy folis ect. even hubby can take the Maca and it ups the libdo, makes his swimmers stronger & faster cause it's an energy boost, so it's like sperm on roids lol. Anyways ladies I gotta get my shit together and get ready for work. Been sitting here reading trying to catch up. Have a great day everyone
 
So I tested this morning and still :bfn: I'm due tomorrow so I guess will wait and see my cycles have been all over the place the pact few months, from 23 days, 32, 25, 27. So HOPEFULLY, this maca and fertilaid has straightened out the hormones here, or really screwed things up from what I read now lol Maca Good! fertilaid not so good for some people, can stop ovulation, make your cycle longer blah blah blah.

Whose all left hanging in?

sorri about ur bfn:-( but remember ur not out intill the :witch: shows!!! when i was ttc i had got some fertilaid too but then i read alot of bad things about it! so therefore i stop it right away because i didnt wanna take the chances of something bad happen you know it was already bad enough that i was having trouble as it is:-/!!!

has anyone tried just taken *PRENATALS*?! i really think thats what did the trick for me, i started taken them the end of may & got my bfp on 10/25 and my midwife said that prenatals can be some of the best things when ttc:) i was told that taken them 3months before trying can really help well of course i just kept taken them & trying neways and you know i seen the differents that they were doing my skin never looked so good my hair never been so long or my finger nails im telling u ladies go get u some prenatals ASAP who here is taken prenatals?!
 
I've been taking prenatals since January :growlmad: so not a believer that it helps get you pregnant but I do believe it helps prepare for the sticky bean and prevents a tubal preg. and other stuff. (Cant think of it).

I do not know if temp-ing is the only way to know if you ovulated but it does help. I love watching my temps and don't stress about it but I do think people get carried away. As long as you do it the same time every morning and before you do anything else you should get pretty accurate results. Also, it helps when you meet with your Dr. You have something to show them so they can see how your cycles are going. And Fertility Friends lets you enter in notes/symptoms so you do not have to try to remember everything when you talk to your Dr. (like a journal if you want to use it that way).
 
CD10 today and starting OPKs! I'm taking Maca, Fish oil (for Cm), royal jelly (for cm) and primerose oil (for cm) I'm also taking green tea and I stopped drinking pop completely. I hope this is our month! Good luck to anyone still in the game!

Hey guys what a day! Still working at 11.30 is not fun! :-(

Hope we are all well! All the info here is just fab!

R22- about temping my problem is that I set my alarm for 6.15 am but I always wake up throughout the night several times before my alarm so I guess my question is, is there any point in me temping ?! Can I still get an accurate reading?

How are we all tonight? Xx
 
Twinkletoe- I also wake up several times during the night (I wake up anytime I hear my toddler fuss or talk in her sleep lol) and I just temp in the middle of the night if I have been asleep for at least 3 hours. It doesn't seem to effect my temperature very much, I can still easily detect ovulation since my bbt will raise almost an entire degree.
 
Twinkle I also wake up in the middle of the night. Lately, I have been waking up about 30 minutes before my alarm and just try to go back to sleep and still take my temp at my usual time. My chart still looks pretty accurate. But if you are ok not temping than dont give in to the pressure. :drunk:

sorry your not a stronge believer for the prenatals!! you know i think everything works different for everyone as were not all the sames and neither our are bodys! has nebody ever thought about trying one of those montiors that help track ovulating and can actually confirm it?! i read about this one call cue or something like that and u can rent it for as low as $20 a month
 
ovacue!! its called ovacue ive read alot of great stuff about it and u cant rent it or buy it and it actually confirms the big O!
 
Well I have found out that the so called "symptoms" I have had the last couple of months are all related to my ovulation. Like nausea, frequent urination, and the metallic taste... However this temping has taught me when I o which is around CD16. Which gives me a 14-17 day luteal phase! Which makes me happy because at least I do not have to worry about how to lengthen it. Other than that I am going to keep telling myself to not get overexcited and to not blow things out of proportion because stressing is not going to help!!!! Well i suppose the only other thing to state is that I am on CD 22 and 6 dpo! 11 days left until testing! Good Luck too you ladies!
