I've decided to try EPO this cycle too as well as my prenatal. Im on cd5 and also on my 3rd day of soy. Dh and I have been ttc for 6 months. I've only had af 3 times. Im pretty sure I ovulated my first cycle, didn't on my second and positive I did on my 3rd cycle, but it wasn't until cd74. I told hubby to get ready for lots of bding!

Good Morning ladies and to the new thread!!

My intro...
My name is Erika
I am 41, will be 42 in May
Hubby Ryan 42
TTC #2, I have a soon-to-be 3 year old DD Charlotte (also in May)

My cocktail...
EPO: this month I took it cd5-ovulation because I restarted it
Maca: 60 drops/tincture in the morning
prenatals
B-100
baby aspirin
Also took vitex for 4 days but opted out after some reading, didn't think it was for me just yet.

As of today, I think I'm officially in the TWW. "O" came right on time yesterday (following the chemical) for certain & it HURT! After doing some reading evidently that is common after a chemical pregnancy, no idea why.....I think the bd'n was pretty well timed so fingers crossed!!

Today is quiet, just workin' on music, cleanin' house & bein' a mom...life is good!

Peace out ladies!!

OH! and I forgot I'm drinking 2 cups of red raspberry leaf tea everyday too........Lord! So much stuff!!!

Great Scott! I can't believe we filled the pages again :)

Welcome to lmosier! I'm glad you're taking the EPO.
My short intro:

I'm Bee, 30years, dh 31. I took EPO for 4 cycles with these lovely ladies before getting a strong bfp (our first child). I'm now just hanging around to continue supporting the girls who were there for me.
I had some scary spotting and cramping at 9 weeks, but it turns out lil' bean is fine. Now I'm 15 weeks and finally able to tell more friends and family :)
I normally practice a wonderful martial art called Aikido, but recently quit in favour of prenatal yoga, since the falls and rolls were starting to worry my dh and other family members.

My success cycle cocktail:
Green tea, no coffee
Vitamins D,B complex, Zinc
Bee pollen
Vitex (but only for 4 days during FP)
I also drink raspberry leaf tea and nettle tea regularly, although usually in the TWW I stayed away from Raspberry since it *may* cause mild contractions in some women (so I've read).

Today I'm buckling down to my reading for school. Tomorrow I'm going to town for a bathing suit, and I'm going to start swimming at the rec centre once/week! Any suggestions on a bather for me??
Anyway, I hope everyone is having a great Fat Tuesday!

Hi ladies!

Bee - Yay for 15 weeks!! Congrats!

Ericka - Yikes lots of May birthdays! (Mine is in May too!) Sorry O was so painful - hopefully it was worth it!

lmosier - Welcome to the thread! This is a truly amazing bunch of ladies! with the EPO! Hope it works on the first cycle for you!

AFM - Bbt was 98.13 yesterday and dropped to 97.66 today, so I think af will probably be here tomorrow or Thursday for sure.

Hope everyone is having a good day!

lmosier - Welcome to the thread!

AFM: 3DPO and having some cramping (weird). Bbs are a little sore when pressed but nips are really sensitive. I'm exhausted - had a hard time falling asleep last night and also feel like I have a cold coming on. Yuck. hope it stays away.
Baby Dust and Sticky Vibes for the new thread!!!! May we all get our bumps on soon!

hehehe, i found u guys again!! going to another prenatal appointment today, in about half hour. peanut should measure 14 1/2 weeks! im going to video record this scan and see if i can figure out how to upload it here. if not i will have it on fb for sure! still having morning sickness off and on, thought it was supposed to be gone by now! also pretty sure i have been feeling little flutters here and there for about a week now, even one big tap just today that im sure would have been enough to feel from the outside! weird though, didn't start feeling movement with my first til about 18 wks.
joy: !!!!!!!!!! that witch better stay away from you! don't give up hope for this cycle yet! i saw the hpt imges you posted and was pretty sure i saw some color to it- a bit of a squinter, zoomed in, but im sure it was there! negative or not, how exciting is it to be poas again!!!??!!!
bee: when do you go for the official scan? do u plan to find out the sex? i think its really awesome and noble of you to give up something u love to ease dh and other family's worries! have fun with your yoga and swimming (get a 2pc!!!!! let the baby belly out!!!)
until next time lovelies!!!!
XOXOXO
