Pink swayers' December thread

Thankfully, light AF from yesterday turned to HEAVY AF today...Whew! I've started up the Vitex, Pep & RL tea again. I'm pretty sure our plan for next time involves a lot of BD again (:p) but I'm still on the fence regarding RepHresh...:worry: I think my O date will be around the 15th of January (give or take a few days). Today is the second day in a row that I've eaten breakkie...I feel much better but I'm still working on skipping dinner. I had something light at 7 last night...I'm hoping to do better today so that I can have my last meal by 4pm if not earlier...:fingers:

Aaahhhhhhh! Don't say that! One set of twins is more than enough for me!!! :worry: With my luck it would be twin boys again anyway....

I totally agree with your thermometer ban, btw - I think we read waaaayyy too much into the 2WW temps. When I compare the my BFP cycles that are stored on FF, they're completely different from each other anyway.

Jen - I like your new diet plan. Personally, I find skipping breakfast easy (I've never been a big breakfast eater) and look forward to my dinner/night time snack too much to do it your way, but I think since you found skipping breakfast hard this is a really good choice for you. Low blood sugar is low blood sugar - I'm sure it makes no difference what time of day it is!

I still need to catch up but I did see a question about if I tested again and I did. It's so hard not to overanalyze everything but I don't know if the line progressed enough from yesterday to today. I'm now 11DPO (but like I said yesterday really closer to 10 because I Oed really late at night like 11 on the 19th and I took this test at 4am). Here they are both pics are from 4-6 minutes.

And so you don't have to go back and find it here is yesterday's about 5am

So, I think I am feeling better about my AF. I did a little online shopping to get some needed supplies for this attempt. Bought OPK's, HPTS, CBE sticks, SYLK, and some Phion PH sticks from Amazon yesterday. I am on CD5 and thinking of DTD from end of AF through O+1 and or O+2 or whatever. Anyone used SYLK? Thinking of no supplements this month other than my regular meds to help with my extremely low hormone levels, folic acid and maybe baby aspirin. Not sure about the baby aspirin though because I have extreme anemia, so low blood, and I think aspirin can thin the blood? If I don't have much then why thin it lol. I just don't know what to take. Since my sickness sways girl, I tell ya, I really hate to take my meds LOL!!! Cause they sway boy LOL!!! Ladies help me with my attempt!!!

Oh it looks darker to me!!! I am so happy for you!!!!

I think that's a fine line for 11dpo Jamie!

Mocha - I laughed at the comment about twins on your behalf and imagined your reaction! Your symptoms sound really positive, I'm so hopeful for you :D

Blue - It's a tricky one I agree. Personally if I were doing frequent BD I wouldn't drop the Rephresh (although did you use 1/2 tube every other day? Perhaps once every 3 days is better?) because all that BDing has the potential to raise pH a lot but, on the other hand, perhaps sperm count being so low in conjunction with the Rephresh was just too much. Would you and DH consider doing frequent release (not BDing) and having less attempts closer to O and using just one application of Rephresh in advance of those attempts? Perhaps slightly less frequent as he released from AF last time around - stick with 7-10 days in advance of your attempts?

KraizyDaisy - I don't know about your condition but if baby aspirin is not recommended for you because of it then definitely don't risk your health by taking it. Most baby girls are conceived without baby aspirin!!

Thank you so much ladies for all the support! This forum is so much more supportive than many others I have been on and I really find myself invested in your journeys and hoping that everyone waiting for a BFP gets it soon!

Ok so I'm truly an addict and couldn't resist I held my pee and took this at 12:30 so I guess it's official!

Yay, Jamie! There's nothing better than seeing that word on a test! :cheerteam:
