    Hi everyone,

    Didn't manage to get on yesterday. OH and me def going to try preseed next month is dreaded AF arrives in 2 weeks. Quite excited about it :rotfl:

    I also decided to kick myself in the butt and get back onto my diet :(. I've been eating very healthily (most of the time) for the last few months,upping my fruit and veg, cutting down on snacks etc, but I'm not losing any weight and I think this could really help us along, so now I'm desperately trying to get pg, and I have no not eat any crap food.... at least the end result will be worth it :)

    madbird - can you maybe post what the tesco box looks like for the ov tests that you used? Think I might get some of these but I'm notorious for buying the wrong thing....:o

    Greener grass, I don't know the answer as I use the sanatogen for mothers to be. I'm sure an answer will come along soon :)
    TTC #3..........

  • Sorry to bring this up again but can someone shine some light on the vit b complex thing?

    I bought some Vit B Complex today with the hope of lengthening my LP, is this the wrong one, Read back that QQ says she takes Vit B 50, i'm totally confused, Have read both those articles and it seems its all about vit b6? Well my vit b complex only have 2mg of vit b compared to the recommended 50-200 mg to help. What should I be taking? Helllllllp! I got these ones from sainsburys and they were really hard to find, Can anyone shed some light on which ones I should be taking and where you got yours from? THanks in advance! My mum to be pills only contain 2.6mg so hardly helpfull!

    the b-50 comes from holland and barrett. it is b6 that helps lengthen the luteal phase but it's best to take all the b vitamins, rather than just the b6 alone. i can't remember why that's the case though. :) holland and barrett also do b-100.

    That's right, I take B50 (50mg of vit B6), but B100 is recommended for lengthening LP. I take smaller amount as I'm on lots of other fertility medications and the doctor does not believe in Vitamins.

    B vitamins works better with other B vitamins, so taking B6 alone is not recommended.

    morning lovelies :)

    Jen, to make you feel better, my OH woke up and squeaked that "it's arrived" this morning as well.

    Mind you, it was then followed by a "I can't believe you know my body better than I do, I thought I wasn't due for another week" - she thinks her cycle's 35 days but today means it's actually 29...

    Grins all round from me, and comments of "at least I now know why I've been biting your head off" coming from my OH... :)

    Maybe it's nature's way of saying that our offspring shouldn't have their birthday in July, same month as their mummy, and that next month will be better...

    glad you've worked out the cycle whowants2brich & ur right - mummy should have July all to herself! :) good luck for next month x

    hope everything works out ok with you skint_catt xx

    mrsvcx not sure what that means but fingers crossed for a BFP! x
