QQ you take Vit B 50 right? is your wee bright yellow? lol, i have been taking B100 for almost a week now i think and its flourescent!!!:rotfl:

Well that's just bizarre because I don't take B50 or B100 and I have had neon wee this week. I was starting to think I might have a water infection :eek: I drink tons of water so usually have very pale wee. The only link I can make is that I started taking Well Woman Conception tablets, but they only have small doses of B vits in :huh:

WW have you seen the doctor? i'd think given the fact that you've tried before that you shouldn't have to wait the 12 months they normally say to wait. sorry if that's being too nosey.

Hi LT, I went to see my GP a couple of months ago as I wanted a day 21 test done so I knew whether I was ov'ing or not, and thankfully all was fine. The 1st GP (male) I seen said they wouldn't see me again until after 12 months. The 2nd GP (female) said they would see me after Christmas if I still wasn't pg, but has already started the ball rolling by asking my OH to do a sperm sample - OH was originally happy to do this but the pot has now been sitting there for about a month. I can understand his reluctance to do it, as we both already feel like a pair of failures, and if the results come back and they aren't good then he is going to feel terrible. But on the other hand I would rather know so that we can deal with it and get referred sooner.

I just feel so sad inside each month when I see how much OH is hurting because of all this, and how much the pressure is upsetting him

Hey CM that's great news about your LP improving, lets hope it lengthens more next month, or even better you get your BFP this month

Well I think I'm going back to basics next cycle. I've been taking 3000mg EPO, 200ml grapefruit juice and 3 x 10ml Robitussens in the lead up to ov in the hope of improving EWCM and I actually think my EWCM has decreased not increased. I don't know which one has caused it, or whether it is a combination of any of them. Before ttc I used to be swimming in the stuff, now I barely get anything :mad:
So, as i say, back to basics for next cycle and will just take my Well Woman conception tablets and see what happens.

i'm just back from sainsburys and have got some epo and some robitussen, So i'm now taking Vit B 100, pregnacare, EPO, robitussen and metformin, Have pineapple juice in for after OV, along with using CBFM, OPK's, checking CM, taking BBT and using preseed, could i actually be doing any more??!!! Are all these things ok to take together? I tried to drink grapefruit juice but i hate it soooooooo much so just cant

It could be ov spotting,or just random spotting.
12, 13 day cycles are amazingly short:huh: Would you consider temping?

Hi QQ - I know - they're terrible! Hence my confusion... I came off pill in April this year so perhaps I am still getting into the swing of things?!? I might try temping after christmas if my cycle lengths don't sort themself out!

Congratulations notlongnow :T

mrsvicx ((hugs)) hope you get some answers soon
massive ((hugs)) Wonder Womble

Hope your reading is right Greener Gras

Just a quick pop in for me, going to walk the dog. CD9 for me and feeling normal. I'm sure I've already ov'ed as any later and it would mean a long cycle for me. I await with anticipation........

Can I join please x

I am 42 with 2 boys 13 and 6. I have just had my 2nd miscarriage and am desperate to try again as I now feel age is against me now as well as pcos!! My 1st miscarriage was at 7wks and this one was at 18 wks.I have just ordered some opks from amazon but not sure when i should start testing as I thought I had stopped bleeding but seem to have an odd bit here and there the last 2 days.My periods just before I fell pregnant were average monthly but can be all over the place. Any thoughts x

Hugs to QQ, mrsvicx and Wonder Womble.

cd13 here and temp is up but hoping that's just because of a restless night's sleep and then waking later than normal. I had the same last Saturday. Thought I'd ov next week as last cycle was 34 days. The next few days will tell.

I have a whole day of laundry and housework today which isn't much fun when the weather is so nice but worth it at the end when the house is sparkling.

Welcome jules68. I'm so sorry about your miscarriages. (hugs)
Unfortunately I can't give an suggestions but someone else probably will. Did your doc say anything about when you could try again?

hmm i've been taking it at night and my fmu is so bright! Think i will change to the morning too.

Do you think i should keep using cbfm this month then or just give up and use opks?

You should keep at it until you use up the 20th stick:o

Right ladies, I'm off to spend the day with DH so will prob not get in till later. I hope you all have a good day.

Have a great time:wave:

I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels like this. I agree with DL that maybe your friend doesn't want you to make the same mistake she made. I think IVF is an incredibly big step to take and that it can be quite gruelling and tough on your relationship.

Having never done IVF, I've looked it up. It doesn't sound so bad, it'll take 2 month, with 1 month of injections every day thing, but egg retrieval is done on GA, and putting the egg back in is like IUI. A breeze:whistle: (Ask me again after I've done it:p).

Sorry to hear your AF is bad. Did you find that AF got bad when you started taking Clomid. I took it about 8 or 9 years ag and my periods have been really heavy since then

No, this was my 4th Clomid cycle, but others were normal:huh:
Hope it doesn't stay that way:(

It's vitamins in general which make it yellow. So the tablets is probably it (unless you are eating lots of veggies as well:p).

OH was originally happy to do this but the pot has now been sitting there for about a month.

You have to get the pot out, and say to him lets try this together:D
Men are like babies, they want to be told what to do, and want us to help them do it:o I bet he's waiting for you to tell him, or wishing you have forgotten about it:p

I actually think my EWCM has decreased not increased. I don't know which one has caused it, or whether it is a combination of any of them. Before ttc I used to be swimming in the stuff, now I barely get anything :mad:

Good idea:cool: Just make sure you drink lots of fluid:)

I never tried epo, but others sounds fine, good luck:T

Welcome Jules68:wave: (((Hugs))) for your mcs.
I think I may have already said that, since I recognise your name:)

Would you like to be added to the front page?
Would something like this be OK?

Jules68 (42) TTC #3 since 10/10 (2 mc)

Perhaps you can use opks once a day for now? I swear I was oving just before my erpc op, and sure enough AF arrived 2 weeks later.

Hope it stays up:) BD anyway! (I think I ov'd after the temp rise;)).
