Mwilson if you o day after pos opk you'll have a 2-o attempt which is fantastic timing. Good luck!

Jp15 fluids can really dilute a urine sample and affect your reading when testing. If this cycle is a bfn I'd strongly suggest using the clearblue dual hormone (purple) digis next cycle that use fmu.

Hey pbn3, quick question ... about probiotics do I need them and if so, which?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Filzma that's out of my sway knowledge range sorry...
Blue swayers, what's the latest on probiotics? Or xxforhubby if you're reading can you advise if you know?
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
No worries, hopefully someone sheds light on this. I’d posted in the ttc boy section like you suggested and someone mentioned probiotics
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yes probiotics are recommended for a blue sway!!
I am taking just these basic cheap ones, but these need you to take three a day and I hate having to remember another three things to take so as soon as I’m done with this bottle I’m going to switch to one that only requires you to take one a day.
You can find probiotics in your refrigerated health section at the grocery store or order off amazon. I believe the better strains require refrigeration, but maybe Atomic will chime in.
This is what I have atm.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...559e746922.jpg

Thank you hun, I didn't realise you could get fmu opks. I will have a look.
Just to ask, I have started having a cup of coffee in the morning rather than tea, but am only having the one as I don't like it haha. Is this enough or am I really not helping very much?
:nails::pinksperm:
IMO any little bit helps. Its the diet and one attempt that are the biggest factors for pink sway, the exercise has also shown excellant results if you can manage it as well. Everything else you do just adds to this I think :) Nothing on its own us magic though. I've always been a big coffee drinker (like 2-3 a morning when not pregnant) and have two boys plus I would've considered myself a moderate drinker (alcohol). I almost always had at least one drink a day, most times more. But my diet and exercise was strongly blue.

I have cut down my calorie intake, trying to have little of everything and skipping breakfast.
I must admit I am trying to add the exercise as I used to do a lot but am finding it hard to find the time.
I have just been to the toilet and have the egg white, stringy cm (sorry TMI), we last BD on Mon 27th, is that our one attempt or do we need to go again today. Or do we BD tomorrow as the e4d??
Sorry for so many questions, you have so much useful information :bowdown:
Bd tomorrow to stay in with your e4d. Ewcm can appear days before, during and even after o has taken place. Still no darkening on opk?
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
Ps. No such thing as tmi here [emoji12]
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
Going to test later today :fx:
Does E4D mean that you will always only ever have one attempt within the fertile period? I am so rubbish at this! Haha.
:ttcgirl:
Yes it does. An attempt 4-o and older has little chance of contributing to conceiving :)
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
Just thought I'd better clarify to allow for time zones. It's Friday here tomorrow so that would be the 4th day if my last bd was monday. I'm not sure what whether tomorrow is Thursday or Friday where you are. What you want is three full days between bds and dtd on the 4th. Example if you bded Monday then you dtd again Friday, then Tuesday, then Saturday etc etc You count forward in 24 hour increments if that makes sense :)

Here's a link to some info on the cb dual hormone digi opks that use fmu (or urine after longest sleep if you're a shift worker)
You'd obviously only be aiming at having an attempt at solid smiley to begin with :)
Maximise your chances of conceiving naturally with Clearblue
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
Thank you!
I have checked again and now have thick white cm so it changed within the space of a couple of hours :rolleyes:
We are the same, tomorrow is Friday. I am still going to BD tomorrow just in case, but I don't think the sperm will like my cm haha
Hi y’all took vit D and the probiotic earlier this evening and had some dinner. Feel like throwing up. Normal?

Hey girls hoping to be in this thread but still waiting on my first ppaf- I've been swaying since may this year and had hoped to start ttc around September but my cycles haven't returned yet due to bf.
any tips on how to get af back while bf? My Lo is 1 now but not a great sleeper!
Following all your ttc journeys and crossing my fingers for lots of sticky bfps this month!
Hi and welcome kittendreams! Sorry I have no advice on how to speed things up when bf but maybe start a thread under the ttc naturally general discussion forum? You'll hopefully get a variety of answers from quite a number of women [emoji4] I know of 2 family members who fell pregnant while breast feeding so it is possible, but I'm not sure if their cycle had returned in some way... One I know was shocked as her doc told her she wouldn't conceive while bf. Are you dtd unprotected for now?
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
Also kittendreams are you temping to see whether you are getting a regular sustained shift in temps or not to see if you are ovulating even though af hasn't returned?
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
Kittendreams if you can somehow give up night feeds I bet you will get af back quickly!
Good luck to everyone here! I feel so attached to all of you [emoji5] I’ll be following to see all of your beautiful bfp’s! 🤰🏽
[emoji170]10/2013 [emoji170]2/2016
Kittendreams – happy to see you on a TTC thread!
It’s only when I dropped all night feeds that I finally got consistent ovulatory cycles (had cycles for 8 months or so before that, but probably not ovulatory, at least not all the time).
If there is any way you can try to drop night feeds (or at least one, if multiple), that will up the chances of AF showing up (having said that, you can conceive before that 1st PPAf).
FX for you my dear – truckloads of pink dust headed your way!!!! :D
Thanks for the welcome and advice girls- so when you say cutting a night feed do you mean offering a formula bottle in the night I nstead of the breast?
Thanks Pbn I conceived ds2 while still bf ds1 so I thought this time would be just as easy but ds2 feeds in the night while ds1 slept through from 3 months but fed all day long, so I think the night feeds are the main problem.
I am temping but no shifts yet but heaps of cramps and pinching in last two months. Sometimes I think the witch is coming and then nothing... so annoying!
LMSM I've been thinking of you and that beautiful baby girl you are cooking! Thanks for the pink dust and everything else I am so excited to ttc I just need af to show ( lol never thought I'd say that haha!)
Oh well I'll just hang here and live vicariously through you ladies til my body gets into gear!
Hi ladies, I've not been on the boards for a few days, life has been busy!! What have I missed? Haven't got a minute yet to read through, can anyone catch me up on where everyone is at? Have I missed any bfps?
I also want some advice if anyone can help. We had an attempt last night and I've just got positive opk this morning. Shall we do it again or not? Eek [emoji51]

Hi mummy2boys! Greydore and dreamingrainbow both got bfps [emoji3]
I see on your charts that you haven't used opks since July? Is that right? I was going to suggest if you consistently o day after pos opk I'd probably hold off especially if you're really wanting only one attempt. If you're ready to up your odds of conception but lessen your sway odds in the number of attempts side of it then I'd go ahead and dtd again. You've been at it a long time now and I think you're at the point that atomic herself would be telling you to introduce the extra attempt at pos opk.... how do you feel about it?
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
Yey huge congratulations greydore and dreaming!![emoji322] Thanks pbn [emoji106]
I'm not sure what I want to do tbh. Yeah I've not used opks since July, previously I had even o'd on the same day as pos opk and otherwise the day after. But it has been a long time now and I'm 41 in Jan [emoji33]

Hello girls, it is 1st december and im 1dc, i :pray:to conceive my dream:XX:this month. I believe miracles happend specially during Christmas:HH:
Hi Girls,
I am cd2 and taking femara from day 3-7 as prescribed by my re. Hope this is my month.
Did af come today Noemi?
Ammue have you taken femara before? Exciting, good luck!!
[emoji170]10/2013 [emoji170]2/2016
Hi Greydore,
Yes i took it the cycle i conceived but sadly that was a chemical. I am really hopeful for this month.
Hello Greydore, how do u feel? Yes af came today so i started new cycle hope successful:pray:
Ammue I’m so sorry [emoji17] I hope this cycle results in sticky bub for you.
Noemi I’m feeling okay! Started vomiting last night, a week earlier than I usually have ms. Lots of hot flashes, keep opening our doors even though it’s 30 degrees (0 Celsius). Af sucks, but I’m really hoping for a Christmas BFP for you, what a wonderful gift that would be!
[emoji170]10/2013 [emoji170]2/2016
Greydore im sorry u r vomiting:( i hope these pregnancy symptons finish soon and i fingers crossed for a healthy baby girl:ballerina::ballerina:
Hi all - moving over to this board. Got another bfn today. Probably 9/10 dpo and bfn was on a frer. Feeling like I'm out. And now I'm sick - everyone in my house has a cough/cold/respiratory thing and apparently I have it now. My DS1 spiked a temp of almost 105 degrees F the other day and it was terrifying how sick he was. Thankfully he's much better now.
Anyways - so with my son's sickness and the BFNs and being sick now too, I'm pretty down. Have had a few huge crys the past few days including this morning.
Hope everyone else is well.... haven't read through the posts on this board yet but will try to scan through it. Glad to see you back Mummy - was thinking about you the other day & wondering how things were going!

Sorry abc that you are sick. I am also sick with a head cold and totally sucks and is kicking my butt. I am 1 dpo and dtd the day before my positive opk so hoping that sticks bc im not in the right state to try another time. I did plan to do another attempt tonight but that is not looking too good. Totally sucks bc this is month 5 of trying and after a chemical month 1 im ready to see a positive.
