Fantasy Feb 2016 TTC

[Laurenk1424]

I fell pregnant in December but miscarried January I would stick with e3d. That's what I'm doing BUT I'll probably add an extra attempt at pos opk as I just want to get pregnant regardless of blue or pink. Only started the diet and cardio to keep busy

Oh PBN I'm so sorry. It's so heartbreaking. I'm glad to see you back and not feeling defeated. We will get out squishies.

Ok this thread moves fast! Sorry pinkin and Nann, still got fx. Pinkin I feel like you, I'm starting to winder about my fertility. It all happened so easily with my boys without even knowing when I ovulated, pregnant first attempt both times, and the egg split 2nd time so 2 for the price of one! I guess I was very lucky, but had a scare with my ivf as dr said everything was looking so good they didn't expect me to have such a high number of abnormals. I'm so close to giving up completely now. Want to give it another shot this cycle but things not looking good. Day 18 and still no positive opk.

Lauren I just checked with another clomid user and its 3 days after your last dose. So if your taking cd3-7 then don't start opks until cd10. Are you still using the digi's or do you have a pile of cheapies?

Glass of wine during tww seems fine right? How about wine coolers do they fall in the "alcohol" section for girl sway

It sucks seeing all my close friends pregnant with girls again! Being able to give their daughters a sister and plus having one of each gender. Why is so hard for me

Princess Mom - I had wine in the tww, I don't think it is that bad as long as its just one. Of course I'm not drinking now.

Lauren - good luck with the clomid! I don't find it bad when taking it but it does make O pain more intense for me. I hope it get you that bfp! I was about to hit the 1 year ttc mark too so I know how much it sucks

Goodluck everyone in the tww... I'm waiting to see some more BFPs!

I didn't buy more digis .... I'm sticking with cheapies. Do you think that's okay??

I think its better as I'm not sure how the digi's would be with clomid in your system as they dual test?? If you've got heaps of cheapies I would start at cd8 so you can watch it (the false surge) fade out and see the true surge come in. Thats just me though lol. Its completely unnecessary but gives you something to fill in time lol.

I would stick with the cheapies Lauren, less complicated if u are used to them. Good luck on your Clomid cycle, hopefully it does the trick for you.

Lauren, Pbn3 is (almost) correct, you should not start testing with OPKs until the 4th day after your last dose of Clomid, so start on CD13 in your case. Otherwise you can get false positives. Thanks for mentioning that Pbn3. Cheap strips are just fine and you definitely should avoid the dual hormone CB fertility monitor/advanced OPK. The plain CB digis are fine to use but unnecessary. I highly recommend Wondfo OPKs from amazon, make sure you buy from Formosa Medical as most of the prime sellers on their carry fakes which are not as sensitive or reliable. I expect you will O around CD16. Oh and FWIW, my actual O pain was MILDER than usual this cycle, though while taking Clomid and for almost a week after I felt a lot more 'ovarian activity' on both sides. Not really painful though, at most mildly uncomfortable at times.

If you were REALLY not following the diet at all for 2 whole months I might consider doing one attempt at positive OPK this cycle. If you were following the diet most days but just had several cheat days, I'd stick with E3D. If your cheats were a third or more of the time for a full month, maybe do E4D? Did you stick to the cardio the entire time or did you stop/reduce that too?

Ttc2015, could you get Clomid/Femara to help you O on time and boost your odds of pink? I O late naturally and I hate it, it frustrates me soo much. My O moves around a lot too, it's never been very regular so I never know when to expect it.

Princess, I think alcohol in moderation up untik BFP/14dpoish is just fine. I also think occasional, small-moderate amounts of alcohol are okay while pregnant. Wine coolers are fine for pink, just have with a meal or as your 3rd meal if you only have 2 others, since wine coolers have tons of cals.

I stuck to the diet for the most part but had meat atleast 5 of those days and high fat probably 10-12. I didn't exercise at all. I have been full force with the diet and cardio for a two weeks now.
