That's the spirit Dee!!!
If I could just pass on some tips for what may have helped me this time to anyone still TTC...
1) I completely changed my attitude from "it's never gonna happen
" to "it might just happen this time!
" I wouldn't let myself have mopey unhappy thoughts about TTC and I even talked to the potential baby in my head to welcome it. Too crazy for ya??
2) I stayed relaxed about BD. I think it helped a lot that I was using CBFM so I wasn't wearing myself out with excessive BD as well. I really tried not to see BD as a means to an end either. I just focussed on enjoying it.
3) I used Preseed. I don't get a lot of EWCM so I helped nature along with a sperm friendly lube to sustain them (only used it when CBFM said High/Peak).
4a) I reinforced relaxation after BD by have a single alcoholic drink and remaining in a horizontal position for a minimum of one hour after BD (tip, DtD on the sofa with a mixed drink and the tellie remote within arms reach for immediate use afterwards
)
4b) I watched something on tellie/DVD that would make me laugh whilst I was in said horizontal position. (I read a study that was once done in an IVF clinic where the women who were exposed to comedy immediately after their IVF treatment had a much higher success rate than those who were not. Hmmm...)
I hope that doesn't sound too odd or far out. Oh, I've also been taking Femaprin (a vitex and b-vit blend from America) for the last 6 months to help balance my hormones and Wheatgerm oil daily, doubling the dose of the oil every second day from 5DPO to AF, to aid implantation. I also have taken Pregnacare Conception for the last year and Eye-Q fish oil every day. Some woman in America sells sets of these supplements (minus the pregnacare) claiming they will help you fall pregnant within 3 months. Someone who bought it once spilled the secret of what the package contained and the instructions so I've been making my own fall-pregnant-fast blend. I don't know if they helped (obviously I didn't fall pregnant "fast") but I certainly don't think they hurt. I do think the Vitex has helped regulate my cycle a bit at least.
I hope you don't mind the babble fest. I just thought I would share what I've done to help myself along to getting a BFP in case anyone wants any ideas.
