Hi all. I'm currently 12dpo and got a bfn this morning third month ttc :( (my lt phase is 13 days normally, 12 last cycle)
I had been on the le diet for just shy of 21 weeks when I oed cd15. From day of o through to today I had gone completely off diet. I've kept skipping breakfast but I've had meat almost every day and haven't monitored my diet nutrition intake at all!! The fat and protein levels would be very high. I'll be back on diet from tomorrow but my question is has the last 12 days of eating whatever whenever undone 21 weeks of work (I really really thought I was pregnant this cycle) Should I skip a cycle ttc so I'll have another 5/6 weeks back on diet?? Any thoughts/recommendations?

So sorry about your BFN Pbn3. Xx. I wouldn't stop ttc. I think it's your overall diet that counts. 2 weeks isn't going to undo 21 weeks. It's probably just what your body needs anyway. I did something similar the month b4 my bfp. I think that helped me get my BFP as I'd lost too much weight by then. Just pick yourself up, dust off, and carry on I say xx. Big hugs.

Sometimes the best girl sways are the most laid back! I wouldn't skip a month personally, since you've been on the diet for so long.

FX so hard for you!!!!

Oh bum Pbn..... sorry to hear about the Bfn xox I know everyone says you are not out until AF arrives and you are prob sick of hearing it - but it's true :)
I agree with the other ladies, don't skip a month, just do the best you can and get back on the wagon ;) I am hoping to ttc in Sept too - just waiting for my cycle to come back to normal after the m/c.

Thanks Immi! Hope you're doing ok and your cycle returns sooner than later. Will be nice to have a familiar face in September :) There's been alot of bfps in August so hopefully September will be the same!

I had a horrible diet this cycle too because I was sure I was pregnant. I don't plan on skipping this month. I am going to lose the two pounds I gained (yes, I gained two pounds!) and I'm going to be super strict on diet and hopefully it'll undo any "blue friendly" things I did the last two weeks. I hope September is your month!

After 21 wekeks on diet, do not take a cycle of TTC off for any reason other than an Act of God. :)
