So my temp is the same as yesterday. Would you all say this is a good sign that I'm not having progesterone issues? I know temp can't tell a ton but I have a short luteal phase (11 days) so I'm hoping the fact that it's up is a good sign. I've never been able to figure out my fertility issues and was hoping temping would shed light.

I really should read through before I reply I end up posting loads of responses at once [emoji85]

Your chart is looking good so far! The fact your luteal phase is over 10 days is good too. Why were U wondering I don't remember was it just that you aren't conceiving as quick as you'd like/most?

Mines still looking ok today! Am expecting a nosedive tomorrow.. If it stays up I'll be testing for sure! X

Is the SP supposed to be a big factor? The Vitex & cranberry are the most important right?

I just checked and yours is like mine but a day behind! I conceived my first right away and my second took over a year and I ended up getting an IUI out of impatience. I'm so scarred by that I assume something has to be wrong with me even though all of our testing was normal. I just had an u/s so I should hear about my lining soon.

Are you having your blood tests tomorrow? I want to stop temping today but I know I'll kick myself. It will be so heartbreaking to see my temp go down. I can't even test early because a bfn is hard to take.

Sorry you got AF Lauren FX November is our month!

Congrats Netti and Has2!!! Those lines are looking good. H&H 9 months!

Hopper, don't fret over eating breakfast. You've been on the diet awhile right? I ate breakfast, snacked, took vitamins and basically didn't eat LE for an entire week while I was pregnant but Atomic assured me it's overall condition that matters. A few blips aren't going to undo months of dieting. Are you still having blood work done to figure out what's going on with your cycle?

Quinn, last cycle I was super emotional a few days before my BFP. I'd start crying over stupid things then I'd be a major grump and lose my temper with the kids. :/ I swear pregnancy symptoms and AF symptoms are so similar I always think my period is coming when I'm prego!

Still waiting to O over here. Had some more ovary pain yesterday and I'm having some other fertile signs. My temp went up today which is weird but I guess they'll be wonky for awhile.

Thanks hun. Been on diet pretty much except for a couple of blips since May 1st. Have lost about 10-12lbs since then and think my muscle mass is fairly non existent! I'm planning to wait til tomorrow if AF doesn't show today and see if they can fit me in for BW. If AF doesn't show today I have no idea what's going on but will test tomorrow if I have to before going for Bw. I just hate seeing BFNs so am putting it off!!

Hopefully your body will set itself right shortly hun and you will have a nice early O and a sticky bfp next month xxx

I thought it was LR and cranberry OR OLE. DH can definitely only take OLE or cranberry as I have asked Atomic about the benefits of both several times now, she recommends cranberry BUT mostly because the stats just aren't there for OLE just yet.

None are getting stellar results and I would have anyone drop them after 3 months if you haven't gotten pregnant when using htem.

I just looked into it a little bit more recently and it seems like it definitely has helped sways in the past. I'm just thinking of other things I can throw at my sway to make it as pink as possible! I'm not into the Vitex at the moment although this cycle is definitely making me question that decision! If it doesn't regulate I will look into it. A lot have dropped the Vitex since I joined, it was very popular in 2014 then we postponed ttc so I didn't check in here until earlier this year and Vitex seemed to be less popular. I think if it's helping your cycles regulate then it's working for you. Cranberry is recommended for DHs but not us, right? Or at least it was when I got my personalised plan in 2014.

It is licorice root OR peppermint tea

AND

Olive leaf extract OR cranberry.

I recommend cranberry for men who can take it (those under 35, in good health, good sperm quality, not on blood thinners or other meds that may interact with cran) because I am not completely convinced yet on the OLE. Most of the people who I had on OLE up until 2015, were on it because they had some issue (they were older, poor sperm health, fertility challenges) that could have had them more "set" for pink. It's not that I think the stats on OLE are bad, they're actually great, but i am not yet convinced that it's because OLE itself is great or if it's because up till this last 9 months I was only giving it to a certain subset of people who may have been overall more pink-friendly to start with.

Girls, it's impossible for me to keep up with these support threads. I just so happened to see one of the questions come thru in the "new posts" and so I could reply to this. PLEASE put your actual questions into the main forums for me to respond to because if 10 people get confused, it only ends up taking me longer than if you had just asked me in the first place.

(Please note I am not mad or annoyed, it's just that literally every time I open a support thread there is invariably some level of confusion going on, please just ASK when you have questions rather than guessing "I think it's this or I think it's that")
