Grace- I'm so sorry about AF showing up. Personally I think it must be the miscarriages that are messing things up so much for you, me, and TM29. I really am just now hoping for what feels like a miracle. Since the miscarriage I seem to be having such bad health luck and I know being on all these medicines are just making everything much worse. I just keep telling myself that every failed cycle brings us closer to a spring baby which would also be great, and hoping hoping hoping it all works out for us soon. Although normally my charts have been such a mess that I don't even have hope

I just had to be given an insulin shot in my stomach because the high levels of cortisone raised my blood sugar. I'm never going to get pregnant if things keep on like this

[Grace]

Thanks Junie! I agree about a spring baby, though so far I've only had winter babies. Three times I was due in spring or summer but ended up having two mcs and one premee....:-(
Hope you get better soon xxx

[Junie]

Thanks Grace. I hope you have another winter baby coming- I've always liked having January for a birthday

I'm sorry Grace.
It's my 3rd cycle TTC too.
I don't think it's only our age. I think it's our pink away which makes it super difficult.
Hang in there!

It takes fully fertile couples doing nothing to sway, 3-6 months on average to TTC a baby. That is why your doctor won't see you for fertility treatment until 9-12 months - because you DON'T NEED IT and most people will get pregnant within that time. If you got pregnant with your boys faster, that's because you were fortunate, not because you are ever after issued a guarantee of how long it will take you to get pregnant.

Swaying can make it a bit harder, I just hate to see you guys misdiagnosing the problem and looking for some "fix" when it is probably just one of those things. If you look in our stats, it is taking most people an average of about 3 cycles to get pregnant.

I think it's definitely the pink sway that makes it so difficult for you. And I think you're right Junie, mcs are also a big factor because even though I'm doing a BLUE sway I'm finding it difficult too. Grace, I am really sorry to hear what's going on for you. Can you get clomid? It wouldn't be a bad idea if you're swaying pink after all. Or is there a reason you can't take it?

Junie - these awful health issues just have to stop. I wonder if they're also related to the mc. It is such a terrible thing to go through. Like being hit by a truck. Why wouldn't the immune system suffer? Makes sense. Poor you - I really want it to stop so you can get your cycle back together.

I have to make a big decision THIS SUNDAY about whether or not to take clomid on Monday. Imagine you wanted a baby boy just as much as you guys (most of you!) want a baby girl. Imagine you've been doing a really good, careful blue sway, gained 14lbs a lot of it muscle and really improved your condition and that this has been a really big tearful hard fight for you to achieve. Then imagine you have 2 cycles where you get AF at 10dpo then 9dpo and you are 39. Would you take Clomid - knowing it really does have an effect on cm and could undo some/a lot/all of your good work? I am ovulating naturally...

But I also so so so want this to be over. I started swaying August 1st last year!!!

Clomid or not? If you were in my position? I have to decide this weekend. I'd be so grateful if any of you have a view.

Tm29- I would take Clomid in a hot minute, if it were me. Clomid is NOT the holy grail of pink sways, by any means! There is NOT a magic bullet! While it helps people get pregnant and can HELP a pink sway, it DOESN'T sway pink by itself! If it did, hell I would've gladly taken it when I had the chance! It only helps a pink sway if you are doing all the other things. YOU are doing none of those things! I don't think you have anything to worry about! Oh and another friend who was swaying for a boy and took Clomid, just texted me a sono pic of a penis and ball sac! She is having a boy and just turned 38!

Take it, lift some weights, have a protein shake, and have your 3-4 attempts in your fertile window. Plus, take ALL of my patented baby boy dust, PLEASE (For DH's sake!) [emoji4]!

Atomic: I know you are right- it is also what I tell everyone else but telling it to other people and listening to the logic myself are two different things LOL. Plus I sincerely believe that TTC makes most of us a bit crazy
I do think my cycles are very messed up after the miscarriage (last one was 50 days) but overall I know being on cycle three isn't at all a long time. It is just hard feeling like everything has not gotten back to normal even though the miscarriage was 4 months ago.

TM29: For me no question, I would take clomid. You've been doing a great sway and I think the diet, frequent BDing,etc will make up for it. Although I can't guarantee it

I have also been told this - about it taking an average of 3 cycles - by atomic TODAY and I believed it 100% for a whole two hours. Then I began going crazy again. You're right Junie - ttc does make you crazy. It sounds right that it should take a few cycles. It's weird that we all got pg so easily before. Not that I would take that away from any of us - it was great!

Thank you Junie and XX for what you say about clomid. XX I love the sound of your friend! She must be so happy!

So you'd take it. Hmmm.
