tm29, maybe I'm too tired/sick, but I don't quite understand your situation. Do you have charts I could look at it? I'm much better with those. I hope I can help solve your mystery.[/QUOTE]

thanks Maiden. I was at the hospital today. I had 3 d and c's after a miscarriage. The last one was very very minor, on Jan 10th. My cycle still hasn't got going. I had a tiny bit of spotting last month after a +opk - but I don't think I actually ovulated or actually had aF. They were both almost but not quite what they seemed to be - ie a surge that didn't do the trick and bleeding that was just breakthrough bleeding.

Womb lining currently thin as you'd expect it to be post-AF apparently. Some enlarged follicles on the right ovary. I've been sent away and told to keep trying. I feel so sad and hopeless and depressed. I'm not even getting a chance to ttc! And I have no time to waste.

Sorry that quote didn't quiet come out properly. Those were your words at the top, maiden!

I need to vent: Remember in early Feb. when I went to see the fertility ob/gyn, my first time ever going to an ob/gyn? I got the bill today (for some reason insurance didn't cover it): $85! All they did was weigh me, take my blood pressure, and she told me I needed to take Creighton classes in order to chart my cm properly. What a ripoff. Never again.

One piece of good news, the first crocus is blooming!

xx, I can try the olive oil, but oats are a no due to my food allergies. I think all the grapefruit this cycle helped, still not great, but the first signs of improvement. Or maybe it was the acupuncture? I go for my next treatment later this week.

smarston, sorry if this is a dumb question, but what does what does PNV mean?

tm, *hugs*!

Sage- pre natal vitamin. Also, I had a ton of EWCM when we conceived the boys..have you tried Mucinex to increase your CM?

Ah yes. The pre-natal vitamin. I took the one a day with DHA or the Centrum Specialist prenatal with DHA. Calcium and vitamin D.

Thanks sage!
I had tons of ewcm while conceiving my boys too... Also did high protein diets and lots of healthy meats and fats. Didn't realize this at the time. We also DTD allllllll the time. 1-2 times everyday for sure. DS1 we DTD all the time for fun, DS2 we were finally out of the honey moon stage hehe, but we loved it up for old times sake during Ovulation. Also I had the big O both times conceiving.


Im starting to feel discouraged about my sway, therefore "falling off the wagon" regarding diet and exercise for my next cycle.. I don't know if I'm pregnant let alone pregnant with a girl.
I started about a month ago By coming of birth control, LE diet; gave up meat was a big one for me. Also I started doing 30 minutes Cardio EVERYDAY (also huge for me going from not excercising at all). I took Femera CD3-7. Had sex on CDs 9, 11 & 15. Didn't "O" and DTD 'from behind' (lol sorry for the visual description). Side note: I have a very long canal- which is why we didn't do shallow release- also may be tmi, sorry! Haha
Anyways, I know on cd10 I had a 10mm & 13mm on right side (does the right side produce more boy sperm attracting eggs ???)
Im so worried that I'm pregnant with a boy. I would love him. But I want a girl more than anything in the world.
I also ended up with a UTI that probably started on my CD12 and I mistaked the discomfort for ovulation cramps. I just started antibiotics yesterday- and won't be ttc any further this month- though I think if O happened it has came and gone already.
Any words of wisdom out there or things that I should possibly do differently or suggestions?

Oh my god.lol. We were supposed to be bd last night and Sunday to be in with more of a chance of getting pregnant this cycle. I did mention this to df the other day.anyway last night we dtd. I said to him today did u actually come inside me last night? He's like no I didn't. Oh my god!! What a waste.lol. oh well. Roll on Sunday

Just to clarify, the bill was $150 for taking my weight and blood pressure, no exam, and $85 is how much our insurance won't cover. Things I can measure for free at home. Crazy!

smarston, yes, I tried guafenessin, all it made me do was cough a little while doing heavy breathing and bding. My cm gets watery already, so I don't think it needed a thinner. But I'm going to have to start checking cp and getting up there farther to see if some ewcm is hiding inside. This cycle I had what I thought was a little hint of ewcm and I've had tons of creamy as my dry state. It could be from acupuncture or from eating grapefruit every other day. Leading up to o, I took some epo on the non-grapefruit days, too.

I've been on Rainbow Light one a day the past couple of cycles.

hbuhs, when I had my girl I was battling Lyme and having lots of digestive issues. I was still eating meat, but I had to cut out all sugars and grains. I couldn't even handle rice or potatoes (usually ok for gluten-free) for about 2 weeks. I wasn't eating much and lost weight (I'm already thin, wasn't good). I was back on rice and potatoes in moderation when I conceived her, but that happened the month before. And I know dh had a hot shower right before because I remember telling him he wouldn't be able to do that when we started ttc, lol! Dd was a happy accident while I was still treating the Lyme, a month before we planned to really try. I can't understand why it's taking us so long this time.

Hbuhs - boo on the UTI! :(

Eleena - omg hahahahaha. How frustrating though! But gosh...men...what was he thinking!?

sage - boo on the bill. :( At least it was 'only' $150? I've heard of far worse horror stories of medical billing, that's for sure! Still sucks though.
