How important is your diet during 2ww? Its been 1 week since our attempt and Ive completely slacked on my diet and supps but im so worried now!!! Pro bably will take a preg test this weekend
It is pretty important because if you get a BFN you have kind of slacked and it may or may not affect your sway for the next cycle, and if you get a BFP it is important to keep up the nutrients especially if you have a blue bean, they are more fragile and dependant on nutrients in those early stages.
I know its really hard for us girly eaters to change our diets so dramatically to the HE diet and stay eating like that once pregnant, i didn't mean to worry you at all just try to keep it regular and healthy in the 2ww, im sure everything will be fine, the good thing about the HE diet is it fills our stores with all the good stuff that the baby can take when we fall pregnant. I almost went right back to girly eating habbits when i got my BFP then i saw a post where Atomic said definatly don't do that.
Hi Zebaniee. Sorry but am having a giggle reading your post about DP needing your help to release. Personally, I'd tell mine to bugger off and figure it out.
I bought my DP some playboy mags after my 3rd DD as I had 3rd degree tearing and was out of action for a while. He was pretty thrilled to have permission and to be honest, I was happy for the break... Not sure how you feel about that but I thought I'd throw it out there. :bigsmile:
I have like ovulation type pains on and off :think: they're probaly pains I get every month but wouldn't pay much attention to. They're little sharp electric like pains.
GAWD where is AF??? She should have been here today at the lates. My last HPT was Thursday night, HUGE BFN...and I just can't bring myself to POAS again, it's just so devastating. If she does come tomorrow, means my O was off by 36-48 hours. AAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGHHHHHHH.
Have you a chart Anchor?
No, I have an app on my phone, but I can't seem to e-mail or anything. I'm terrible at remembering, so most of my charts are every other day anyway :oops: No implantation "dip", but my temps have been pretty average for the last week, no drop?
Sometimes a chart just gives a clearer O picture :)
I'm hoping you have your O date off by a day or two ;)
It's not over yet!
Hang in there anchor. The month I conceived I had no clear O (FF changed it after DTD) I had no clear temp rise and no implantation dip....
It's not over till the fat lady sings...(also, I want you over on the due September forum with me.:wink:)
Guys if you have a minute could you have a look at my chart please :oops:
I am just wondering if my post O temps are very low? To me they look very low - I hope it doesn't indicate problems.
Ok so I got a super light AF on the evening of CD29 and today is CD3, it's so light it hardly even makes it to my underwear, it's pretty much just there when I wipe. God knows whats happening to my body?? Surely sups wouldn't change my body that drastically when I only started them from O (so 2 weeks now). I am only taking Elevit, Folic, Fish Oil, Royal Jelly and B12....and I started EPO and Green Tea today.
It sounds more like spotting than flow Pop?
Maybe your cycle is adjusting with the supps, mine did too I had to adjust supps to fix my cycle & even then it changed again ?
True blue-
It looks like you had a rise then a stable elevation in temps. It looks good.
Anchor- yes, we want you to be a September due date buddy!! I didn't get my +hpt until 16 dpo.
Thanks Pom :) I was super stressed all day about those temps - it's another first for me, seems my cycle has decided to leave me double guessing everything :D
Looking good true blue. Fingers crossed.
Anchor.... How's it going?
Pom...been thinking of you again...hope everything's ok.
Hope you all don't mind me hanging in here, there's no one really to chat to in August due dates.... Maybe I should start a thread?
True Blue..when I started TTC in Jan 2012 I went from a cycle that was like clockwork, I got AF on Saturday morning every 4 weeks without fail and had been for 12 months since I had my Implanon out in preparation for TTC. The instant I was TTC my cycle went insane!! Temps all over the place, cycle was getting longer every cycle until my last attempt when I O'ed on CD 34!!! I'm not sure what does it, maybe stress or our bodies don't like being monitored (shy egg???). I hope it all settles down for you ASAP!
True Blue you had a high temp on cd12, if that one was lower your post O temps would look higher on the chart, i think your chart is looking great.
Pop the epo may be causing the weird AF, you just have to either stick with taking it now and you should start to see normality while on it, or drop it and it may take some time to go back to normal, i am sure it was the epo that made mine go all wacky at the start of my swaying, i was on it off it on it and off it again but in the end i wasnt on it for about 6 months.
Its been a week since we dtd and I took a preg test and it qas negative. ....is it too early to test?
Hi Alyssasmon. Most people don't see a faint BFP until around 10 or 11 days after ovulation and some don't test positive until after AF is missed.
7 days is a bit too soon as implantation only occurs after day 6 and it takes a couple days for your HCG levels to rise up enough to turn your test positive.
Wait another 3 or 4 days and then test again.
Best of luck.
Sorry meant to say implantation usually occurs between days 6 and 12.
I got one of these types of AF in September. I was very freaked out by it CD1 light, CD2 & 3 barely there, only when I wiped, then nothing else. I had myself half convinced that I was pregnant even though the tests were coming back negative. In october I then had a 6 day heavy AF. That was the month I got my BFP so it doesn't interfere with that side of things. I had been on the EPO since July and stuck with it AF to O.
Alyssasmom, 7 DPO is way to early to test. Give it another 5 days at least if you can before testing again.
Thanks pearl that a relief to know, you start thinking maybe your fertility is on it's way out!
Cinss...do you think if I keep taking it my cycle should be normal by June? As I am not TTC Atomic has told me I can take it all cycle and swap back to AF-O the cycle before my first attempt. There will be no more accidents so I feel safe doing that!

I know, I did the worst thing in the world after it happened to me, I googled. At best I found that it was possible I wasn't ovulating and at worst it was the onset on early menopause. I am only 30 with 3 older sisters still in full fertility, but I did panic for a little while :drama:
I did the same thing early last year after I had TTC for 6 months with no BFP and wacky cycles. Every other child I have been a OHW and I was convinced I was infertile!! Just call me drama queen!!
Princess of pink I took EPO all cycle long for many many non ttc cycles with no problems :)
Anchor... Any news?
Alyssasmom...I got a bfp at 8 dpo albeit faint! Good luck.

Hi blue swayers...apologies for my absenteeism but this cycle just stressed me right out. I thought I had O nailed down but maybe not. I really think the soy isos messed me right up. Is it possible that they added days to my LP? At any rate, the witch showed up today (after I spent days scouring the BFP after BFN boards...literally) and I'm going to drop the SI for my next go. Good luck everyone, and CONGRATS to our BFPs!!! Onwards!
I took one today at 10 dpo and it was negative but very faint barely there :/
Anchor sorry for AF grrrrrrr!
No the negative only got one line but soo faint I could barely see it. I tested first thing in the morning.
Sorry to hear she turned up anchor.
What brand stick are you using alyssasmom?
