OK, having researched it further, pineapple is a bit of an old wife's tale, but it is true that raw pineapple core contains bromelain which can induce contractions and mc, but one has to take amazing amount to do that.

So some people are taking it safe, and are drinking juices that has been heat treated, it still contains selenium which is good for ttc.
There seems to be a lot of people undertaking IVF who are eating pineapple cores, so I'd say everything in moderation:p

Yet again QQ a fountain of knowledge!!! XxX

Evening All,

Fingers crossed for implatation QQ and for you to Mrs!!!

OH and i have been talking baby, baby, baby, all day - seems he is keen to get practicing ready for OV lol and he spent a lot of today telling me about OV'ing and what i need to look for - bless him he has been doing some reading of the book

Im on day 6 now (8 days since the last pill) and so far a normal AF gorey bits in white (although much blacker than normal - maybe thats the end of the hormones - or maybe my system has some old bits to get rid of)

Im really hoping that im one of the lucky ones who comes off the pill and gets caught straight away! I've only been on it 4 months this time and the non hormone coil for 5 years before that so fingers crossed!

Fertile thoughts and baby dust for all (and a hi to the lurkers)

Hmmm ..... if the heat treated juice is good for ttc do you drink it before ov or after, or am I thinking about this a bit too much? :rotfl:

The tail end of AF is like that for me every month, sometimes I think it looks a bit like tar

Now its stopped!!:o I hate not knowing whats happening, I would rather know one way or the other!!:mad::mad:

That sounds like the start of my AF every month, spotting, then stopping, then spotting, then light, then nothing .... for 2 days. It's blooming frustrating wondering what is happening and whether you're going to get full AF :mad:

i wish my hubby was a bit more like that, he's fine with the baby making but can't think as far as actually having a baby, he can't get his head round it

no longer a pre-seed virgin here can't say it felt that much different though. will save the rest for ov now.

Hi Ladies

Has taken me ages to catch up on all the chatter.

I am so sorry to Ali and Deb, am thinking of you.

Ali - so glad to hear that your OH is now so focussed on TTC, everything crossed for you xx

QQ - everything crossed that this is your month xx

MrsVicx - It is not over until AF actually arrives so good luck

I am in the middle of the 2ww, today is dpo8 and I am desperate not to test until Sat when AF is due but I am ssing really badly so we will see how far I get. I stupidly was that FR HPT double packs are on BOGOF so have 4 tests just sat there. At least I will hopefully know one way or the other before we go on holiday next Sunday - 4 more working days to go WOOHOO!!

SBDTA xx

grevesendgirl - haha funny that, I was pearing at my opk's and the advert for BOGOFF FR HPT's came on the radio, its funny how I then think 'this must be a sign' lol everything's a sign when you're looking for it I suppose. still I'll be off to the shops tomorrow to stock up

All this talk of fruit juice just has to stop, its the last thing I need when coming to this thread I'm allergic to fresh fruit and veg and would give anything for a nice glass of pineapple juice or grapefruit juice...............uummmm banana's - right back on track, enough dreaming of fruit

Hope the witch stops messing you around MrsW and eaither shows her ugly head or !!!!!!s off for the next 9 months! I'm still hoping for you

Puzzled - I hope it does work out for you, I've not been so lucky after BC but my sister got her BFP first month off and you can be more fertile the first month off pill, so all the best it's your month.

Just catching on on some on the thread, day CD23? :rotfl: and still low on cbfm! Nearly out of test days.

QQ - Glad everything wasn't painful. And as others have said, you only need one great swimmer. Fingers crossed!

Hi everyone.

Still looking promising Mrs, I have my fingers crossed for you. QQ when you be able to test?!!

Re pineapple I've also googled galore and it's a mix. I'm gonna give it a go but like QQ said, it'll be in moderation. I'm still at grapefruit stage and in fact that's running out so as tropicana (hope that's ok?) is on buy two and get third free I intend getting 2 more grapefruit and one pineapple. Perhaps I'm too optimistic about time of ov but hey ho, a good pma always helps.

Dh has flaked out so this months mission will start tommorrow and I'm gonna have a blast with pre-seed. Any suggestions with the amount to use?

Tons and tons of sbdta and happy fertile and baby dreams (they're a good sign apparently?!).

Night night. Xx
