My VITEX Journey

[suregena]

Congratulations, Butterfly. I'm so happy for you!!!

We're going to attempt this cycle, but I am completely off diet... been eating breakfast (we've been on holiday this month - twice!) and pretty much, whatever, whenever. I'm sad because I feel like it will be a boy, though I will love a boy. I just feel annoyed I've given up already... but my body just wasn't working right. :/ And I want to get pregnant faster than this, sigh.

In fact, the only sway factor is DH agreed to FR... er... and... that's it. We're both vegetarian already but we conceived a boy as vegetarians so I'm not leaning on that fact much. I keep wanting to try to not snack/have breakfast, but not happened yet. Might try to stick to that now that we're back from the second vacation (We were in Scotland over the weekend...)

Thank you Surgena sweetie!
I think this is just what your body needs. And also not eating strictly will take a LOAD of stress off of you so you can conceive. And you've done the supplements now for a few cycles so that's probably fine to go without those too!
I wish you the best of luck this next cycle and I really think that you will be pregnant soon, just keep that faith. The GD is hard, but you do have a beautiful son. Maybe you will end up surprised too and the work that you did will pay off this next cycle. Just try not to stress and just have fun in the bedroom and let go of everything.

You sure go on some lovely Holidays! Take care sweetie, and I hope to hear happy BFP news soon!!!

I just could not wait... so I called up the U/S place and got in tonight!!!!
But it's confirmed ladies, IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!
There were three lines the whole time... nothing between her little legs!
Bare with me while I figure out how to get the pics up

I am just in shock and OVER THE MOON! The tech was an OB from Europe and he has been doing this for years and he was working at that place a few years ago because we saw him there.
He told us that he is the owner! So that made me Very happy! DH Is VERY Happy!
We called up his mom and we are going to have a gender party, and I can't wait!
The U/S tech said his daughter has 4 boys. I told him to tell her to try Vitex! LOL

I just can't thank you ladies enough for the REAL love and support you have given me for the many months I have been on this site!

Thank you GD, and THANK YOU Atomic!!!!!!! And thank you Mocha for the sweet counseling and advice you gave me after my loss.

Congrats Butterfly!!!! I loved reading the excitement in your posts. I only used Vitex for one month before I got pregnant. Do you have to take it for a few months before it can "help"? I hope a few weeks on it worked for me...

Thank you ThreeMen, I also only took it for one month... less than that actually more like 2 weeks and I conceived my loss baby and then I took it from the day after my loss until 5 days before O and that also averaged 2 weeks!
SO YES MAM It can work like that!!!!
I don't think it's too common though. If you are more sensitive to it you'll prob respond to it faster. I think the average is 3-4 months before it makes a difference.

LOVE IT!!!!! You've been a great source of information and I'm glad your hard work has paid off. Enjoy your little girl. I still look at mine and can't believe she's part of MY family. She's almost 3 and there's not a day that goes by that I'm not grateful to be blessed with both genders. Congrats again!!!
