Those that TTC together, Stick together!! 4 BABY BOYS/3 BABY GIRLS

Kiki- it was 30-35. It before that was about 30 on average. So nothing horrendous, but did do it. But that was to be expected a bit I suppose since it lengthens LP, but doesn't necessarily move Ovulation up. At least not for me. So, this was cycle one after HSG, and the cycles before this you had good LP...hmmmm. What could this be? Yes, if you've stopped stuff, possibly just a fluke from stopping stuff. I would believe that and try natural next cycle and THEN if messed up, take something. Give your body the chance for natural after the HSG maybe right?

Maybe stopping the maca was an adjustment for your cycle, just like starting it would be...you could try using that again... I've been taking a Bcomplex the last couple of cycles; no luck so far except for really yellow pee! Some people also take a B50 which has a much higher amount of just B6 or 12 or something... There is so much you can research if you want to try something different!

 

[nypage1981]

Yes I took a bcomplex with 50 of everything. It smelled aweful, tasted worse, and made my pee neon. But I still did it anyway!

 

[ready4baby]

Okay mine is just a regular Bcomplex, I think it's 2.5mg of each or something, not 50. Maybe that's why it hasn't done much for me...not that I want a longer LP, pretty much just want that sticky bfp! GRRR I'm mad at that witch for you, kiki.

 

[nypage1981]

Yea- guess they say to try and up it if its not doing anything. Other than the LP- what do you take it for then? I am not sure what else it does. I totally quit it now, made me wanna gag.

My cycle was 28 days this cycle but it's because I O'd late on CD18. I figured I would have a 30 day cycle with a 12 day LP. I'm thinking it may just be a fluke thing. Or maybe because I stopped maca. Maybe I'll try the Maca again and see if that helps. Especially since that never did any harm to my cycle before. If my LP is still short next cycle, i'll try the B vits.

Thank you for your advice Ladies! It's so stressful and overwhelming to try to figure out what to take or do every cycle because I feel like it's trial and error and I'll just be behind another month when it doesn't work and I won't know what to change.

Ready- I'm so mad too! It's bad enough she showed up but 2 days early and messing up my cycle is even worse!

I honestly don't remember--how sad is that? I think I had read it could improve egg quality, and I thought after my early mc that would be a good idea. It is probably doing nothing Maybe I'll try soy next month, or beg for clomid...something different might be good, as the same old is getting, well, old.

 

[Deethehippy]

I'm so sorry Kiki, i asked you to test and now i read this Nature sucks sometimes. I am such an organised person and it sucks so much that we cannot just organise a pregnancy :/
No 2011 baby but we can still get our 2011 BFPs :0)


Woohoo Star - how fab is that?!

 

[Kiki0522]

Dee- Thank you. I appreciate that.

 

[ready4baby]

Well my OPK was about as negative as it gets for me, so I'm not as far along as I had hoped in my cycle A few more days and then I'm out of the game this month...

Where are you Rosa?

 

[EJW147]

Kiki- I'm so sorry Af came! Its so frustrating and upsetting its not happening quickly for all of us. I wanted a 2011 baby too which wont be the case for me either.

AFM-I have an appointment later this month with a gyn and I want to demand clomid!! lol Like you said Ready it will feel like I'm trying something different. I wish my appointment was sooner my temps this cycle are soo low I wonder if its from the metformin? Hmm I wish I knew a fertlity specialist I could have on speed dial and call all the time! lol

 

[rosababy]

I'm here! I've been making a quilt for a friend who is leaving to go home to Germany in a few days, and I haven't had time to do much else. Finished, delivered, cleaned the house, and here I am.

Heather, I am so sorry to hear about your kitty. The same thing happened when I was very small, probably about 5 or 6, and my dad ran over our kitty. I saw it, though, and it was traumatic. I'm glad Kylar didn't see it. I can VIVIDLY remember it. It was terrible.

Ny, those are some awesome scan pics!!! Now you're a believer! I hope you can find some assurance and rest easy now.

Kiki, I'm so sorry the witch got you. Try maca again. Not sure why you would have the shorter LP, that is definitely strange. That happened to me once, though, for whatever reason. I would say if your LP is short again next cycle, have them do a progesterone blood test.

Ready, sorry about the no positive opks. It sucks to wait for those. Bd just in case! I'm not temping or using opks this cycle. Just bd. I don't have much hope again, mostly because of the sperm analysis. I KNOW everyone thinks the numbers are fine, but I'm not convinced. I'll believe it when I see that 2nd line on the pee stick. I hope we don't have to do IUI or anything, although I"m up for that. If that's what it takes, bring it on!

Dee, you're in the 2ww now! How many dpo do you think you are?

The BD fest of April 2011 starts Wednesday. It only takes one little persistent I hope he/she is ready to swim this cycle! Pretty boring cycle so far...

 

[Kiki0522]

Ready- I'm sorry the OPK is negative. But definitely keep BDing just in case and hopefully it will be enough if you do O while you are away. When do you leave?

Ej- Thank you. It is so upsetting. I'm trying to get past it and I know I will. It's just today sucks right now. You should definitely demand clomid! Wouldn't that be great if we could have a FS on call all the time for our questions!

Rosa- Thanks hun. I'm thinking and hoping it was just a fluke thing this month because I really have no idea why it was so short. Besides stopping the Maca so I am going to try taking that again and see what happens. That's a good idea to ask about the progesterone test though. Thank you.

Heather- I am so sorry about your Kitty. It is awful enough when we lose pets that we love but to experience something like that is just horrible and I'm so sorry you had to!

 

[Kylarsmom]

I took the B complex too, I think it helped but boy were they disgusting. I couldnt continue when my morning sickness started the thought of them made me barf!! lol

 

[Kylarsmom]

Kiki, thank you hun, and Im so very sorry about AF. I know it has got to be so discouraging, but hang in there, God has a plan and I know it must sound like its easy for me to say that being pregnant already, but I have always had faith that I would get my baby on God's timing and not my own! I hope it happens very soon for you sweetheart, you deserve it!!

 

[Kiki0522]

Heather- Thank you very much for your kind words! I really appreciate it! I do have faith and a lot of it! It's what keeps me going!
I read your ticker.. Baby Kendon is sleeping 12-14 hours a day! Must be nice! haha. I bet you wish you could sleep when he sleeps!

 

[loveinbinary]

Tomorrow will be a better day. AF just ruins everything the day she comes. Stupid witch. I vote we all bomb her broomstick the next time she tries to fly by, that'll teach her.

 

[Deethehippy]

Rosa - i don't think i have even ovulated Usually signs for me are an elevated temperature (i take mine during the day which i know is not accurate but it still goes up noticeably) and i always get tender boobs after.............so i am still waiting ......previous cycles it has been around CD21-22 i think.
Hurry up TWW already!!! :0)

How fab to make a quilt, i love handmade items, i bet your friend will love it!

 

[AndreaFlorida]

Kiki---sorry AF got you sweetie

Dee---you never know sweetie it could have happened

AFM----I just finally OVULATED an its weird it was so late in my cycle but I take what I can get these days woohooo

 

[Kylarsmom]
