Fi, keeping everything crossed for you.

Regina, lovely picture!

Jo, belated birthday wishes.

Becks, try vitamin B6 to improve LP, must be 50mg pils which can't be bought in normal shop as they are only 10mg usually.

My mom ordered mine online from a company who are based in Jersey, sorry but i don't know their name. Can find out for you if you want though.

Awh acne look who is sitting all on her own she is so cute xx

 

[crysshae]

I'm so sorry Fi.

Ordered Vitex and B6. Should've ordered the B6 a month or two ago when I first said I was going to.

That being said, after my research today...it may have been partly my fault my cycle went crazy. I ran out of magnesium a few weeks ago and forgot to order more. Then ran out of fish oil a couple weeks ago and keep forgetting to pick it up. Well...magnesium regulates estrogen and fish oil does too.

Also, royal jelly can add to estrogen. I was still taking it while missing the others. So...since my body was used to all those things together and I stopped the regulators abruptly, I probably caused an estrogen overflow. Dummy me!

I ordered my mag and fish oil with the B6 and Vitex.

 

[Soanxious]

Aww look at that smile because she is sitting up aww x

The vitex is brilliant stuff... hope that and your other pills sort your cycle Crystal. x

[Soanxious]

Think I got my Pos OPK.. my left ovary popped last night I had a shooting pain and pop.. happens now and again.. does it happen to anyone else? x

 

[josie1234]

What does that mean Tanya? OPK looks pos hun.

Becks - I hope you are ok, big hugs. I really hope that you get your sticky bean soon. Miracles do happen, look at Brooklyn. Your heart must melt every time you look at him.

One of my friends who was away with me at weekend has to go for tests today, she is only mid-late 30's and is struggling ttc. She has no children. So I really feel for her. I have told her to keep me informed of her tests.

I was feeling really good yesterday and went to gym and last night I was awake from 3 am-4.30 am. My sinuses were really painful, headache, sore throat so I have had to ring in sick. I am laid in bed typing this. Took Sudafed but not clearing it. Lazy day in bed then.

Lisa - Caitlin is growing so fast, so proud that she is sitting up, she looks so chuffed.

Fi - how are you hun?

Crystal - how are you?

Sorry if I have missed anyone.

Hope you all have a good day xx

 

[josie1234]

Looks like another long cycle.

 

[Soanxious]

Some women feel ovulation, I sometimes feel a pop and a burning sensation, I think it was what happened last night to me. Does not happen all the time. Maybe I laid a chickens egg haha!

Oh I hope your friend has some good news.

Not nice feeling so rough.. I was all bunged up a few weeks back... horrid.. hope you feel better soonx

 

[Oasis717]

Thanks Jo. I am so grateful and blessed to have my children. I hope your friend has success with tests etc. So hard Life is cruel sometimes but hopefully there is a rainbow at the end for everyone. Xxx
Tanya I get cramps with o but not a pop! Pos opk though. Im not using them til we try in July cause they just stress me out! So ff will just have my temps and cm to go on xxxxx

 

[Soanxious]

Yeah it happens now and again I have felt it.. but not for a long time, I remember when I was younger I felt it pop I always knew when I was ovulating. Just been reading up on it and a lot of women do too..

I understand what you mean about not testing not ttc for now. I felt like that in Oct just start again when you're ready x

 

[Soanxious]

Thought I would share beginning of ferning with my saliva microscope.

I got pos opk this morning.

 

[Soanxious]

My middle daughter is moving to Zante May 26th for the summer

She is lovely, Tanya! I know you'll miss her, but what a great experience for her.

Jo - Hope you feel better soon.

Fi -

Becks - I ordered my B6 on Amazon. Maybe they have it on the uk Amazon site...

 

[Soanxious]

So what is ferning ???

AFM took Sean swimming this morning , he loved it has been in great form all day but think that has alot to do with the BIG clear out he had this morning lol .......

 

[Soanxious]

Ferning is what happens during ovulation when you use a microscope, I used a saliva microscope.
