Yes they love each other so much. They just started playing and talking together more (my younger son is 2 in a few days so he is the end of 2015, and my older is 5 in April), so with the younger talking more and more it’s been fun watching them finally able to play. Best friends and constant fights, yep! Such fun, brothers.

Atomic, could I add to this thread a question about irregular cycles. Since I can’t do the exercise this time around, is there anything else I could be doing? My cycles are never the same, so it’s a long annoying wait to try again when it doesn’t happen. Like a 30 day cycle to a 40 day cycle. We were doing E4D and will do that or one attempt again but sometimes that ends up with maybe another attempt at positive OPK (again) because I get two at different times. Should I take something to regulate my cycle? Or is that boy friendly? I can’t quite ask for Clomid I don’t think because it took 2 cycles to get pregnant this time and now they know i haven’t been waiting 6 months.

Oh I'm so sorry BB.
Listen to me on folate/folic acid, not Google and not your doctor. I want you guys to wean. No one else thinks it is important but I do. I don't think this caused your miscarriage but I just like you to be on the safest side.
I want you on folate only from here on in. You're going to have to track down a prenatal with folate instead of folic acid. If you are one of the minority of people who can't take folic acid then you need to stay away from FA all together even in food.
I want you to take one or two (whichever you feel more comfy with, your body just pees out the excess) and then add your prenatal (folate only) into that. This may make more sense if you're only taking one of them and not both. Take higher dose all thru the entire first trimester and only once you're at 12 weeks, then gradually wean off of them to the amount in the prenatal and again, I want you on a prenatal that has only folate, no folic acid.!!!

It's fine to take more folic acid for those who can tolerate it, too. Those of us like me who had a baby with an NTD are given 4000-5000 folic acid (I took it with my last two pregnancies after my 3rd son had mild spina bifida) Folate is safer for the baby's sake because some people have the mutation that can make folic acid build up in your body (which can cause issues eventually even for you but this is mainly a protection for the baby) and it's better for them to use the folate.

I think little boys should come in pairs like shoes and I sometimes have guilt helping people with swaying for a B/G family since I love love love having 2x boys so much I did it twice, separated by 13 years! My older two are 26 and 22 (and are roommates!) and my younger two are 8 (in 2 days) and 9!
And since everyone always wonders, yes same husband. Baby fever is a powerful thing. Poor man. LOL!!! Questions?? Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

Atomic - with prenatal vitamins specifically, are you advising folate only (not folic acid) for those who've had miscarriages, and if so is that what you think I should do as well (when I get BFP again)? I've been doing folate the whole time I've been swaying but the prenatals I have have folic acid in them. I've found it pretty dang near impossible to find the perfect prenatal - they all seem to have something I don't like (too much of something, too little of something, the wrong "form" of something, stuff in it I just don't want at all - like extra herbs and whatnot). For example I try to use one that has the beta carotene form of vit A b/c of the concern about getting too amounts of whatever the other synthetic form is, which a lot of them don't use.
Just curious!2013 2015

I can see that - I come from a B/G family and my brother is 5 years older than me, we have almost nothing in common and we have never been close at all. It also seems like the dynamics in the B/G families I know versus the B/B ones are very different. I do feel like my two are always going to have a very special bond, even though their personalities are very unique!
Your family sounds fantastic, Atomic! And that little girl of yours is too adorable!!!2013 2015
