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!

Thanks Joy: How are you feeling? Any morning sickness or anything else?
Liz: So excited for you! Congrats on the Boy!
Bee: How are you doing and feeling? Recovered fully from the flu, I hope?
AFM: Well, Im feeling better today. Actually feeling more like myself, but I have only been awake for about ten minutes. :) I am looking forward to having this week off. It will be fun. I have a lot of small adventures for us to do and I also plan to sneak off and see my side of the family. :)
I'm not sure what signs I've been having besides flu signs. Tummy is still feeling sensitive but I''m hungry so I'll try something more besides the BRAT diet today. :) Hope everyone has a lovely day. I'm so happy to see blue skies and sunshine outside - Lord knows us Seattlites needs some Vit.D!

Ayrian - So glad you're feeling better sweetie! I really do hope you get some good news soon!
I am doing pretty good, thanks for asking! Still hasnt really sunk in yet that I am pregnant. Have had some nausea but thats about it, havent actually gotten sick or anything, and it seems to be fairly controled by eating small meals throuhgout the day. I am loving every minute though! I will happy hang my head over a toilet all 40 weeks if it means I get a healthy little bundle this november/decemeber!
Hope everyone had a great weekend!! Not over for us yet, its spring break here, so I've got a busy week planned with my neice and nephews, my sisters and my mom!

Hi girls,
I think we're already 4 in 5 right? Me, Liz (November), Talless (january?), and now Joy. I'm hoping for 5 in 5 :)
Ayrian, I am glad you are feeling better and that you have the week off. You work so hard for your family, I think you deserve the break :) Have a great time visiting your side of the fam!
Jaime, I'll be keeping fingers and toes crossed on April 1st! Or wait... it's April fools day, so should I do the opposite?? Anyway, I'll be thinking of you :)
Laura, What are you up to?
Joy, I think vitamin B6&12 help with sickness. The downside is that you may feel anxious with no symptoms ;) Your body is doing its very best to create.
Liz,yay for a little boy! that's exciting.
Bug, if you're out there, we're still sending you love.
Afm, Had my 20 week u/s, and I have a low lying placenta but the baby is healthy. I figure I have another 20 weeks to let the placenta move up, so I'm not going to worry yet. DH just got home, so it's dinner time!

Joy: glad you're feeling good so far. Have fun with the family!
Bee: yay for an ultra sound and 20 weeks! yay!!! Do you have your site up on Countdown my preggo?
Bug: good to hear from you.
AFM: First official day of vacation and I think I'll still take it a little easy. I'm still feeling a little 'hangover' from the flu I had. I'm able to eat this morning, so that's a good thing. I have my test day for this Friday - trying to hold out until then, but it's hard. Even my DH is after me to test, especially since I was so sick this weekend. It's the first time he has asked me to test - so it makes me even more curious. I told him it's way too early to show, so we will see!
Happy monday everyone!

Hi Ladies
Sorry for not updating in a while. Ive been a little down, Hubby and I are going through a weird time. We talked last week, but things have been a little off since then. We need to sit down and talk again to see if we are going to ttc again next cycle or if we are going to take some time off, although I may still take the soy/epo again just do I dont get stuck with another LONG cycle.
Im currently 13dpo-expecing af to come tomorrow or wednesday. The only strange thing is that I normally have sore bbs a few days before af arrives and so far nothing, and last night i had some weird stabbing pains in my uterus area, so I went to the bathroom thinking af was making an arrival (i usually only get cramps when af arrives) and I had a large amount of cm (sorry tmi) when I wiped, then today when I woke up I went to the bathroom & I had another large amount--which is weird for right before af arrives-I usually dry up. Other than that, no real other symptoms except last last week I had some twinges aroune my left ovary-kinda similar to O pains but not as strong. Im not getting my hopes up because im not expecting anything this cycle except af since bd-ing timing was not great.
Hope you ladies are doing well.
