Hi,


Firstly here's a quick background on me.


I'm 34 from the UK and TTC #1 DH is 36.


I was on Depo for years (with no AF), then had 3 months of nothing after Depo.


Then 3 cycles of no Ovulation.


I finally O'd last cycle and I am just coming to the end of this cycle.


Both last cycle and this cycle have been very similar. I O'd on cd 14/15, started spotting at 9

Amy,


I know what you mean about the time we spend researching. Especially in the 2WW.


DH and I tried Pre-seed last cycle (the cycle that just ended). I honestly thought it would have worked.


As for the sex of a baby we aren't bothered either way. Funny thing is over the years whenever I've thought about it I've always thought we'd have a boy.


I'm tired today, I have been all week, and I had hoped it was a RPS, but alas, it was AF.


Julie

Hi Girls,


My AF has been short and light too.


I read somewhere last night that the Depo shot can cause Vit B6 deficiency.

ok...??? does a short lp make it harder to conceive because it kinda gets flushed out? does it make implantaion not able to happen? mayb dum ? but just wondering...never knew why it should be longer...

Thanks so much Rebecca! i went online last night after posting...ah the wonders of the www! And found out some good info, but your site was awesome too! tyvm! I'm not sure what is exactly going on with my lp! I know it has been short since getting off the nuvaring in july, so it could just be my body getting rid if the synthetic hormones and regulating itself again! Sept was an 8day lp and Oct was a 10day lp so it has already gone up a bit. I am taking 100mg of b6 everyday as I heard this can help and it is good for you anyways! I am looking forward to this month, because I know what to look for with charting and stuff! Hope my dh gets over this cold he has...we start bding soon!! I plan to start cd8 eod until cd20 or so! I want my bfp for Christmas! Have a great day! ttyl Amy

Rebecca and Amy,


How's it going?


Rebecca, your LP seems longer.


AFM - We are being very strict on the EOD BDing.


I have some 'feelings' in the ovary area today but I have decided not to use the OPK's this cycle because it doesn't really matter if we are sticking to EOD.


I will stop taking the Evening Primrose Oil on Tuesday and on Wednesday I'll switch to the Flax seed oil as EPO shouldn't be taken DPO bc it can cause cramping / contractions/


Baby dust to all. Here's hoping for BFP's for all of us before Christmas.


Hugs


Julie

Hi Julie

Doing well here.

I'm going to test today... My DS has his 15 month checkup today so after that we are going to stop at the store and pick up a couple first response tests. I tried my last dollar tree test and see a faint line there. Still totally nervous about it all though. So we'll see how long I can hold my pee and not drink much this afternoon so I can test again :-)

But I figure if nothing else the B6 did its job and extended my LP.

How are you doing? Here's hoping for BFP's for us!!!!!

Rebecca - Go POAS again and see if you get another line YAY!! Your LP has increased wow.


Amy - How are you? Hopefully busy BDing.


AFM - I certainly have more EWCM this cycle so
