i know nothing about the aspirin, i am assuming it thins blood, and maybe that has some beneficial effect? as for the B6 and b12- i know b6 lengthens the LP and kind of regulates the rest of the cycle so that ovulation is more of the median of the cycle i think? b12 - also beneficial to the reproductive cyel, but not sure exactly how, but i do know that all of the b vitamins work best together, so it is good to take thme in a complex.

for b6 to help lengthen a horribly short LP (like mine) you take 50 to 100 mg, whihc is a huge amount - i take 100mg, which is 5,000% the RDA.

i just googled - one said baby aspirin helps with implantation. it also said that you need to take equal amounts of b6 and b12 - i have never heard that, and did not need to last time, - even this time, obviously my LP has lengthened, so i think they must be talking about the regular doses of b6 and b12, not the mega dose?? anyway, both b6 and b12 mean to lengthen LP.

gl!

i sqaw it stated that the baby aspiriin helps with implantation, not sure how.

i am the opposite of you- i have thin blood, if i take aspiriin, i get dizzy! so i never use it.

i saw your email but havent look at it yet - gerb is cranking up for his nap, and jane has a new pet bug that i need to make a home for, more on that later if you are interested) but i will TTYS!!

My dad is an entomologist, so fear of bugs was ....frowned on at my house, LOL. i have no fear or disgust of any bug, it is the running joke on the Nov board i think.

we get stinkbugs every year - they sound horrible, but really, they dont stink (unless you kill them, and i never have) Actually, let me amend that, we actually see 'conifer bugs' but they are very similar to stinkbugs in appearance, and the name is so awesome that i call them stinkbugs. I think they are soooo beautiful - they look like a Frank LLyod Wright piece of glass, with their markings. and they have these cute little spats on the edge of their legs, they are so awesome. So whenever i see one, i tell jane, look! Beauregard is back! (She thinks there is only one i think-- i have named all stinkbugs "Beauregard Q. Stinkbug" - beau-regard becaue they are beuatiful to look at, and the "q" is for questionable, becuase it is questionable as to whether they actually stink.

anyway, i just found another one crawling on the window, and caught it for jane. she is so excited - I THINK she "Lennyed" one to death the other day and so she said, 'i'll be nice to you today beauregard!!" she puts it in a dish with food of ALL kinds, and plastic wrap on top, with holes punched in for air. wE USUALLY MANAGE TO LET THEM GO OUTSIDE. NOT THAT I AM AGAINST KILLING BUGS, BUT THESE ARE SO HARMLESS AND BELOVED BY JANE THAT I WON'T. oops, caps.

here is an old joke blinkie i made a while back to celebrate our love for BQS, after there was an outburst of anti-stinkbug posts on the Nov board, LOL someone had an infestation, which i would NOT be happy about. but one or two? NBD.. Look at the markings!! tThis photo does not do him justice.

i dunno, yes i am weird ( i was just called an enigma for the umpteenth time the other day, which alwasy surprises me) but really, if you could just MEET Beau... LOL i know, i am over the top. but they are so delicate, so pretty, and those spats on their legs get me CRAZY!!!!

anyway, here is what jane rigged for him - a container full of food - deli meat, cheese, carrots, celery with nut butter on it, LOL and plastic wrap to keep him captive, poor guy. You can't see him, but he's in there, apparently eating swiss cheese. The dolls and stuff on top actually are the cage's handle. they are taped in place. This is the kind of stuff jane builds, LOL.

They would! and jane is aware that some people dont share our love of bugs - tighe is deathly afraid of spijder, a true phobia, so she asks people if they are afraid before she 'bugs' them, LOL.

she really does make creative contraptions. she learns from her mistakes, too - Yesteerday's cage was too heavy, it was apyrex bowl with a pipe cleaner handle - she imporved on it, with some help from mom :-)

what i love is what she does with stuff she has. she was given a barbie drem house, and she completely tangled that thing up with thread form my sewing basket, and basically made a pulley system from her dresser drawer to heer house - let me see if i can find the pic--

aha - here -
