The EPO Experiment: Chapter 5
Hi ladies...
Since we filled 14 pages already, and I'm bored, I figured I would jump the gun and start the new thread! Hopefully the start of a new thread will brng in some new ladies to chat with our amazing group!
For those who are new, I think it's appropriate to give a little spiel:
EPO is supposed to help create more cm when taken from cycle days 1- Ov. Stop taking it from Ov until your next cycle, which we all hope to ride through with warmer temps, high high cervixes and a BFP, not to mention love and support.
Some folk switch to flax oil after Ov, but some of us just quit and hope for the best.
Also maybe a quick introduction for any new-comers and a refresher for everyone else?
My name is Joy
I'm ttc #1
Have been ttc for nearly 2 years
I've had 2 m/c's
My last pregnancy I got pg on my 1st cycle using EPO!
I am currently on cd31 of a 30-34 day cycle
Hoping for a bfp, but not feeling too optimistic
didnt try the epo this go around, but if af shows this week I plan on giving it another try!
Good luck ladies!
Here's to another chapter!

Hi Ladies
Im back ttc now. Cd 6 and waiting to ovulate. Taking epo and prenatals. Might take mucinex, havent decided for sure. The break was good for me and I feel ready to deal with all of this again, I think. next month will be a year for me so I hope it happens soon. I have a fertility clinic picked out I just need to make the phone call, but dh wants to wait. Ugh.
Joy so happy for you!!! This will def be your take home baby. So exciting that your past the danger weeks.
Aryian I think about often and I really hope this is your month. You deserve it. Hoping their is a bfp coming your way!
Bee hope everything is good!

Thanks ladies! Sorry it took so long for me to get online!!
My apt was amazing, baby has a good strong heartbeat of 168bpm and was moving around like crazy during the ultrasound! He or she was literally jumping on me like a trampoline! It was awesome!!
My birthday was lots of fun too... but nothing topped my morning seeing my little monkey moving around and healthy as can be!
Hope everyone had a great day!

Ayrian - Thanks hun, you're so sweet! I actually started to tear up a bit when we first saw our little one's heart beating away and when he/she started moving around! It's just such a relief after everything we've gone through!
Glad to hear FF changed your o date to when you thought it was! I have such high hopes for you this cycle!
AFM - My birthday was awesome, aside from the most amazing part of seeing my healthy little bean, I got spoiled by my family as usual... got a new little camera since dh broke mine a week or so ago, got some clothes, make up, halloween and Christmas decorations (my Mom always gives us that kind of stuff!) and then from me neice and nephew's I got a cute little pair of baby sandals with little ladybugs on them (Should have seen my neices face when I told her right now the baby wasnt even the size of one of the shoes! lol) and then from my sisters I got a beautiful "no-sew" winnie the pooh blanket that matches the baby room perfectly! So cute! It was so neat to watch my niece and nephews look at the ultrasound photos and video though... they were absolutely facinated!
Anyway, hope everyone is doing great! Fingers crossed for 2 bfps coming up soon!! (Ayrian & Becca obviously!)

Hey Ladies
Joy So freakin happy for you girl!!!!!!!! Your u/s sounds like it was amazing. Such a relief to see that little baby swimming around in there. Sounds like you had a wonderful birthday! So are you planning on finding out the gender when the time comes?
Aryian stuck in the waiting phase. Hopefully your wait will be short with a bfp in another week.
Afm cd 8 today. Planning on attacking dh when he gets home. On average I ovulate on cd 11 so its time for some action. Lol migrain is better today so thats a relief. Have a great day ladies!
