Fab, that’s very reassuring!

Hiya, just an update for you and of course a request to pick your brain...
So, still no baby unfortunately [emoji17] but my LP increased to 13 days so I’m feeling more positive.
Can Raspberry leaf tea help at all? I know yin don’t usually recommend any type of tea but I thought I’d read somewhere that it can be used in certain circumstances?
I’m also taking Cefalexin antibiotics for a renal infection, can this adversely affect CM??
Thanks AS!!! [emoji8]

I basically use that when I have someone who is feeling so frustrated that I feel they are about to give up and they need to feel like they're changing something. I honestly don't think it helps anyone get pregnant and may sway blue. You're welcome to try it but I don't think it's truly beneficial.

According to the best data I could find Cefalehexin is ok to use when TTC and it shouldn't affect your ability to conceive negatively.

Cheers for the info!
I’m wondering if it’s now time to consider e4d plus attempt at +OPK?? [emoji848]

In a sense I’m taking it as positive I’ve not conceived yet so to hopefully avoid Covid issues at the hospital.

Ok tell me what you did this last month just to be on the safe side. (not diet and exercise, the other stuff)

[itsallaboutthepink]

No probs...
I’m doing e4d (72 hours), 1200mg folic acid, hubby runs and is taking 750mg OLE and is eating considerably less meat. He’s also lost a lot of weight since January but is still in the slightly overweight category.

Last month there was no j&d and a few female O’s thrown in there.

Is there anything else you need to know??

It’s never taken me this long to get pregnant so it’s beginning to take its toll a bit. I think I’ve mentioned before that I’ve had some health issues this year so perhaps it’s just taking time to allow my body to heal a bit.
This whole process is making me realise that despite how long it’s taking, I’m glad I feel like I’m giving it my best shot, so if I do end up with my opposite DG at least I’ll have my baby and know I tried my best [emoji175][emoji170][emoji175][emoji170][emoji175]

Let's have him wean off OLE. I doubt it's having a negative effect, but I don't think it's doing anything beneficial really.

How much is he running?? Running can be very hard on the sperm so we may want to cut it back.

You aren't doing shallow release, right? (I'm sure I already asked you but i have had SOO many people end up where shallow release was the issue)

You're starting the e4d after your period ends and continuing on till after you are sure you've ovulated right?? Not just having a couple attempts in the fertile window?

How many months have we done the e4d?

[itsallaboutthepink]

I did wonder about the running. He runs or cross-trains maybe 3-4 times a week for 40mins-hour. He’s on a massive weight-loss kick so I don’t think that will go down well [emoji85] But for the sake of a month or 2 he will have to suck it up, haha!

No, definitely no shallow release and this will be month 4 of e4d from a few days after AF finishes usually past ovulation (well into when CM changes).

I feel like I’m doing all the right things but it’s just not happening. I had my hormone levels all checked last month and they are all in the perfect range too, so I know things are working as they should [emoji2370]

Thank you thank you so much again, you are a marvellous source of advice and reassurance!!! [emoji8]

If he's not willing to make any changes then just add in another attempt at positive OPK.
