    Decided to take the tabs for weight loss, when googling said ok during 2ww. Have also seen they've been used with people with PCOS who have high BMI. Side effects don't sound nice but any weight loss got to help TTC.
    Hope the tabs work, and side effects will stay away:)

  • Afternoon all,

    Well CD8 for me today and I can't quite believe it but i've already got my 1st high on the CBFM :eek:
    So in answer to your earlier question QQ I'll be trying my pre-seed today!!! Picked it up from post office this morning so I'm gonna jump on DH as soon as he walks through the door in the not so distant future!!!

    Congrats Angelcakes thats amazing news!!! Good luck to you!!! Havn't read back but I'm assuming you've dished all the goss for us about how u told your OH and the excitement you felt when you realised it was a BFP??? If not we want to know!!! ;)

    Go team sticky!!!!

    SBDTA!!!!

    Thanks Deborah,,

    Well I asked him to get me a test.. he was sceptical..but I was 2 days late.. I had tested on the friday..with a clearblue plus..saw the neg line come through..so just dumped it in the drawer..and thought I wasnt pregnant.For some reason before throwing the test away I checked the test again..and there was a very faint line going down as well as the thick one across.I read that any changes to the test after 10 mins need to be disregarded,so I wasnt sure, tested again today with the digital one and the word `pregnant` flashed up.. so much easier to understand.. so I woke OH up and told him his swimmers were fine and that he was gonna be a Dad!! :j:j ... our wedding is in 2 weeks!!:eek:..look forward to getting to know you and the other girls xx

    Same here, 22% motility and abnormal viscosity:(

    He is taking vitamins with zinc etc/vitamin E/brazil nuts/saw palmetto. And he has cut down on alcohol, and stopped caffeine. He doesn't smoke.
    so I woke OH up and told him his swimmers were fine and that he was gonna be a Dad!! :j:j ... our wedding is in 2 weeks!!
    How romantic:love:
    You are going to be glowing on your wedding:grinheart

    Up to 20.
    Depends on when you ov. How long is your cycle?
    I usually test from CD10 since I'm on Clomid, and you can't use CBFM for 3 days after the last dose.

    On my first cycle with CBFM, I only used 5 sticks, CD10-14.
    On my second cycle I used 13 as I got Peak on CD22.

    Don't feed sticks after you get your 1st Peak, as the machine stops reading them and automatically displays another Peak, High then Low;)

    when was his SA last done?? as it sounds like he is doing everything to help.. I got Fertilman for my OH after it was recommended on another forum.. but multi vits with zinc are just as good!.. also how many SA has he had.. ?? because if it was one then its not enough to go on really.. I think it takes 3+ months for things to improve..

    yeah glowing..and peeing alot!! lol.. x
