Trying for a 2016 baby

Hi Ladies

Sorry I haven't been on here for a while - felt like I just needed a total break of trying everything to conceive. My thoughts and even dreams were centered on trying to fall pregnant with obvious huge disappointment every month. I know 4 months of trying to get your BFP seems so silly compared to how long some of you ladies have been trying. Anyway, the good news is we're going to really start actively trying and doing everything we can to make this happen!

Hubbie was so skeptical with me doing opk's which I had since stopped but upon arrival of AF this morning, he wants me to start using them again.

Today I had a very interesting conversation with someone that struggled to conceive for 5 years. They had done IVF and something called the GIFT with no results. After they started seeing the homeopath who then suggested they see the reflexologist as well. It's a multi-disciplinary approach which entails acupuncture, homeopathic remedies and reflexology to enable the body to reach a state of homeostasis. What do you ladies think of this?

I'm seeing a new gynae on the 2nd of September - yearly check up and to check everything is all good. I changed my gynae because apparently my current gynae was too pro c-sections (which I have nothing against if it's absolutely necessary but, my personal preference would be more the natural approach), which apparently this new gynae is very pro for.

I haven't had a chance to read through all the previous posts - I think I will be here for a very long time So I'll try to catch up as we go along

Hope you are all doing well

Morning Ladies!

The heartburn has left the building thankfully My temp is back up at 36.5 this morning after yesterdays dip to 36.3, the last time I temped it dipped down to 36.3 and stayed down until AF arrived so who knows.. Maybe it had something to do with me being so exhausted. I had a good +- 10hr sleep last night and feel better today. I really have zero expectations of getting a BFP this cycle so just waiting for dreaded AF to arrive to get started with the conceive plus and OPK's next month.

@Liza - Whats happening on your side?

@Nikita - Are you going to use OPK's this month?

@Ninies - I must say I am not used to my bbt staying at 36.4 for so long, it normally fluctuated never used to stay the same is this "normal"? (I know that everyone differs but this is new to me)

Hallo ladies,

@Nikita - Yeah just one more day!
You are gearing nicely up to O! Enjoy the bd'ing!

@Liza - Any news on your side?

@Chanti - Hope you feel better today hun! Is the heart burn better?

Morning Ladies

@Ninies - One more day to go!!

@Jay-Bee, I also did all those tests in January this year, and that is the amount I paid for all those tests, it is very expensive.

@Liza, How are you?

Currently on CD8 bbt at 36.4 for the past 6 days. Should O around CD10. Lets see what happens.

@ Chanti, hope the heartburn eases a bit, I heard that milk helps. Please do not speak about pizza as I LOVE pizza jum and can eat it anytime

@ Ninies, its funny that they say once you try not conceive you will get your BFP I would love to see the look on your Gynae's face when you step in for a scan... priceless!
Thank you so much that is very kind of you for offering to courier some for me . I tried the Getpregnant site but they took it off their product list and only have Pre-Seed which is way too expensive. We only have a few Dischems in Cape Town and will ask if they will be getting in, if not I would really like to take you up on your offer

@Jaybee - I did not temp this last cycle - I wanted to give myself a bit of a break.
I also heard the applicators can be a bit too much, but I also used it all and was surprised at how pleasant it was.
Yes you will get your BFP very soon.
Goodness the FS is expensive, and all those tests!
Just say if you would like me to courier some conceive plus for you. I can always buy it here and send it to you if you struggle to find some more.
Otherwise I think you would be able to buy it online aswell.
