TTC a Soy baby!

[Wannabe Mommy]

Took Soy CD 3-7 this month. Now on CD18 and still no pos OPK

Had a 30 day cycle last month so hoping I still have a chance of ov'ing this month

 

[annmariecrisp]

well my crazy weekend is over and still trying to pack as much in as possible!! I really hope that soy works for me this month! I know it is my first month of trying it but I have everything x'd! I have noticed ewcm today, is that a good sign? xxx

 

[unapologetik]

AHHHHH!!!

FF just gave me crosshairs.. it thinks I ovulated!!

I can't say for sure whether or not soy brought this on, because I can't say for sure I wasn't OV'ing before I took it, but I know it probably helped!!!

Now the only thing is, I inseminated the day of the thermal shift, because I was expecting OPKs to give me a little headway to inform my donor about inseminating.. as it was, when I saw the temp shift down, I knew there was a chance we should inseminate, but it was just too short notice for him. I think I may have inseminated too late this cycle, because of that. Still!! The chart says I ovulated, so that's definitely a plus!

Annmariecrisp - EWCM is a very good sign!
Wannabemommy - hope you O soon
Unapologetik - hope you caught that eggie! They say you should BD before and on the day of the thermal shift just in case so fingers crossed your insem did the trick even if it was a bit after O

AFM - no temp shift this morning, hope I get one tomorrow otherwise I really don't know what's going on with my body! My CM was more gloopy today so hopefully I did O. Hope so, me and DH are so sick of Bding this cycle (never thought I'd hear myself ever say that but it does become a bit of a chore when TTC!)

Still no af and I'm still testing BFN. Guess it messed my cycle up. I am going to give it a couple more days and test one more time then I will go see the dr. UGGGHHH. What is messing me up is my bb's are hurting really bad. Have been for two weeks now. I wish af would show or BFP would even be nicer.

I'm with you guys! I am on cycle day 1. I am not sure what day I should start taking it! The si I bought came in 40 mg. I have regular periods I just don't think I ovulate. I suppose this will help?

Just wanted to ask where you got your SI from? Did you get it local or online?

I took soy last cycle cd 3-7 and only had a 16 day cycle! I'll be trying again this cycle

 

[Helena_]

What dose do you ladies take?

I took:

Cd 3- 80mg
Cd 4- 120mg
Cd 5- 160mg
Cd 6- 200 mg
Cd 7- 240 mg

I pretty much added a pill a day

Should I change anything this cycle?

 

[Helena_]

Oops I dont think I went pasy 200mg. I think I took 160 mg cd 5 and 6 and 200mg cd 7

Hi helena. I took soy cd5-9 this cycle and ovd on cd16. I took 120mg, 80mg, 80mg, 120mg and 120mg xx

Hi all,
I went for my u/s today to check everything was all working correctly and that I didn't have PCOS, thankfully all was fine and she said that I had 1 dominant follicle on my right ovary measuring 20mm! She said it looked big and strong and that I should ovulate within the next day or 2! Hopefully this means the soy has worked and that I have a big egg waiting for it's release!! xxx

Hiya!

Would you trust buying them from amazon??
i got some from boots but they are only 20mg so im going to have to take loads for it to work!!

Thank you all!

Is there a reason you took less on cd 6 and 7?

Noticed you're from Arkansas as well. I bought my Soy right at Wal-Mart. It comes in 80mg.

Spring valley, I think!

 

[August79]

I am an idiot! Mine does come in 40 mg. I was looking at the back where it was talking about the recommended dose two pills (80 mg)

These past two months I've not even been taking a therapeutic dose!
