My SIL was trying with her husband 13 years imagine that eh? tbh i said to her i dont know how you cope..but now she has a wonderful life with 2 children which she conceived naturally they put her down as explained fertility and only when they looked into adoption did she catch.

I haven't posted for ages. I hope everyone is doing well.
QQ could you possibly update me? I'm currently on cd39. I gave up opk and temping this month and regret it now! My cycles are usually 35-41 days long so fingers crossed it doesn't arrive. If it does then count me in for operation NY conception!0 -

Welcome to the operation cc squad
((hugs)) for CD1 and painful cramps though.
I take one tablet each day of vit b complex. It is supposed to help with hormone regulation during your cycle especially in the LP. It's also supposed to help prevent mc (not sure how true that is after having two of them
although I was only taking b6 until recently). It is also supposed to be good to reduce morning sickness when pg. How true all this is I don't know but it helps to make me feel like I am doing something productive
