  • Do any of you guys use agnus castus? I've read that it can really help regulate hormones etc, but also that it can have an adverse effect on sex drive. Has anyone found this?

    FAB NEWS
    If you can think it........it will happen
  • sleepytiger - I tried it on CD1 and 2 this cycle - both times had bad headaches
    a few hours later. I was taking 500mg. After googling it does
    appear that this can be a side effect. Decided to leave it this cycle
    - just pregnacare with it's 10mg of B6, and then add 15 more mg B6 at OV
    - just to replicate what I did last cycle as I got to 6DPO then. Dont wanna go backwards! lol
    I think side effects arent that common though with Vitex / agnus castus.
    Might brave it again if no joy in a few more cycles.

    AF still here at CD6!! eek, i wanna get started and get to the 2WW again!!

    Shelley and Smartie - Big congratulations! :-) :j:j:j:j:j:j

    Wow smartie,

    Congratulations on your * BFP * !

    :j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j

    You said you'd write in in huge letters when it happens, so I thought I'd do it for you!

    I was starting to worry that your hopes would be getting too high, what with the cake list. As for the list, I still want my cake, but I suppose it would get squashed in the post. How about you choose a recipe and we all make it ourselves, then post pics up here and have a virtual tea party to celebrate?

    Congrats to Shelley too :T and sticky dust to both of you xxx

    Awwwww.... you remembered that I said huge letters:kisses3:

    And that's a great idea about the cakes!!!:j:j:j:D:D:D

    Not everyone wanted cake though... choccie, HPT and alcohol as well;)

    Was thinking at 4am this morning how on earth I'd send soooo many cakes out!:rotfl:


    Please don't test early ladies... I know its difficult. I'm a few days late and still didn't really want to test:o If I wasn't getting AF pains I might of thought different:confused:

    For you 2WWers here are my symptoms:
    AF pain!!
    Light pink bleed at 5dpo ish I think + sore boobs
    Another pink bleed a few days ago and then tiny tiny bit of red spotting a few times.
    Lips are VERY dry and chapped. I know some ladies said it's because of the weather but I haven't been out much and they are very bad:o

    Isn't mother nature nasty???:rolleyes: It still feels like AF is on her way!!

  • CONGRATULATIONS!!!

    Wow what fantastic news Smartie and Shelly. Thats a great way to start the week.

    I am feeling very positive this month (that we will get lots of bfp's). Not so sure for myself but have my fingers crossed.

    Am in the middle of 2ww and am trying not to make something out of nothing with any symptoms.

    Thanks for the list of your symptoms Smartie i think it would be a good idea for when we get our bfp that we list any symptoms we had?

    Any thoughts?

    It's not your Aunt Flo coming, it's your cute little bean:)

    I'm due to ov in few days, so I need to DTD tonight. I've decided to use my secret weapon - silk pyjamas which I've never worn yet:cool:
    Will he get the message? I don't want to be out of character, and be too obvious. He'll probably think it's polyester:rolleyes:

    Sleepy I used Agnus Castus when we first started trying but taht was nearly 3 years ago. I have to say I have a very low sex drive anyway and didn't notice any difference.

    Maddie good idea about the cakes although have to say I have to make a chocolate cola cake for work for thursday so can I do that one!

    I'm cd 26 today and have no idea how many dpo due to no cbfm this month! Have to say though that have been having very sore nipples the past couple of days and quite often errect (sorry tmi!) but keep thinking it's just because it's so dammed cold!:rotfl:
