Thanks indigo, you always have such kind words :) Do you really think a chemical sways girl? i wasn't sure the hormones would be enough? Also kicking myself for having 11 days off the diet but then perhaps my body needed it.

So sorry about your loss, Mama xoxo You will get pregnant again! Positive thoughts coming your way~~~~

Thanks doulamama! I have an april 18th baby...such a lovely time of year for a birthday! X

Maybe that's where Tamara got the 80%? the flip side of the 20%?

Hmmm...good point!

One thing that has always bugged me about that 20% number is that a lot of people aren't necessarily doing everything in their power to conceive, KWIM?? Like a lot of people just BD on CD 14 even tho a lot of women don't even O on CD 14.

On the Deanna's Plan site it says that when people follow the plan 40% of them get pg...that makes me think the number just has to be higher. Now some pg do go onto be lost, but I'm not totally convinced that a lost pg always means a bad egg, you know??

I've no idea if the b6 really worked as I still spotted that cycle and had light flow 4dpo - 10dpo, but that was month 3 of taking it with no breaks.

Thanks Blue, I think that is the perfect way to ease off the B6. :agree:

No, but just be sure you are able to keep up with the prog supps throughout the first trimester without missing a day!!

Thanks atomic, yeah i can definitely do that!

Good girl!!
