You are one of the few, not taking Vitex and SP. I am not using them either. So, really excited to hear the result hope you hear pink !!!!!!!

[Sweet mummy]

Looks like an amazing sway EmmyRoo!! May I ask how come you haven't used more supps? Breastfeeding perhaps?

This looks exactly like the kinda sway I would like to follow!

[EmmyRoo]

Thanks guys, really hoping it works!
Sweetmummy - I tried vitex but it interefered with my migraine medication so I had to stop it, then was scared to try SP in case it had the same effect. I dropped antihistamines the cycle I got my BFP cos I didn't have much CM anyway by then. I took everything else I could though, so just hoping it was enough!
