There is only 1 thing I dislike about Glow, and that is that once you get to 10dpo it tells you to take a pg test. I decided I would ignore it....30 mins later guess who is waiting for lines that aren't there?!

Trying to convince myself that it is just too early but I'm feeling a bit like there's no point being positive. I won't take one that early again!

I'm taking the tesco pregnancy melt vitamins, 2 a day but they are chewable and don't taste too bad, so it means I normally get round to taking them!

kirtsypoos · 29 January 2017 at 11:14PM

Quick question ladies, does anyones OHs take supplements? I saw the his and hers pregnacare and wondered if it's something I should be encouraging OH to take?

MrsNubs · 30 January 2017 at 12:53PM

Twigpig can you move me on a day please? I was CD 9 yesterday, CD 10 today

Cherry so sorry to hear your sad news. Hope everything goes smoothly today and you can continue with your journey soon! Well done for having such a positive outlook, it's very inspirational!

I take Sainsbury's folic acid, v. tiny tablets so easy to take. DH doesn't take anything, I doubt I'd be able to convince him to! Although he is getting insanely broody! (He's always been way broodier than me! We'd have had a baby years ago if I'd let him, but it's definitely getting worse now I'm on board too)

Hope everyone's doing ok today. I'm just plodding along waiting for OV...

Afternoon ladies,

Sorry if this is TMI but has anyone ever had thrush? I haven't had it before but I'm experiencing symptoms very similar. I feeI very itchy, swollen and puffy down below. I don't want to go to the Dr as I'd feel awful potentially wasting their time if it's nothing. Is there anything I can buy without going to the Dr?
I know I shouldn't be symptom spotting but I can't help thinking maybe the symptoms I've got could be positive for a BFP.

I had it once ButterflyBabe and used canestan duo over the counter which worked for me.

ButterflyBabe · 30 January 2017 at 4:24PM

Thanks kirstypoos, I'll nip to Boots and get some.

kirsty I don't think I'd be able to my OH to take them, but just come back from seeing my brother and he told me he was taking zinc (cheap sainsburys ones) and selenium when they were trying to conceive.
Coincidentally talking about vitamins my sister in law gave her rest of her stock of pregnacare (while my bro was out we were chatting I let slip I was at the beginning of trying) so may give that a go for a month.

That's what I've been told is best for him to take. I mentioned it to him in passing last night and he just sent me a message asking if I want to go vitamin shopping for him later

he's probably trying to avoid the inevitable nagging :rotfl:

You'll have to let us know how you get on with pregnacare, it's what I'll move onto once my supply of superdrugs own runs out I think.
