Time to begin TTC 2018!

@Jay-Bee, AF is due on sat and pre miscarriage I was like clockwork so if it does not arrive then I will probably test on sunday... although should probably wait until tues at least...

@nicolaf The meds for DH and I combined is about 700. These meds are a home based seller. In JHB our holistic healer was 300 a consult he gave us a whole new diet to follow and what foods are good for fertility. I'm still eating those foods and that, apparently foods that are not for the body is good for fertility but once pregnant it's bad for the pregnancy if you get what I'm saying. I'm eating alot of dates and dark green veg...carrot and ginger juice was another thing advised for fertility so I'm still doing all of that and cutting out processed and unhealthy oils, so just pure olive oil and coconut oil unrefined. It's actually interesting to see how our diet affects us. I don't know if all holistic healers are the same though. But it's extremely cheaper than a FS and I've seen positive results from this form of treatment and I think it's worth a try right? Hope it helps hun

Hello Everyone, how was everyones long weekend? My husband left for AU and SG on Saturday and wont be back until next wednesday so it was a bit of a quiet one for me and my boys. Not without event though, my oldest (he is 3) fell in my in-laws fish pond and then fell on his face and had a bloody nose...much more stress than one needs for a long weekend.

Anyway, reading everyones stories is both encouraging and heartbreaking. We are all in our own realities but its so nice to be able to chat with like-minded people that want the same things at this time. I honestly feel that it goes against nature to outlive a child, @Ayesha - my heart goes out to you, no one who has not gone though it will know what it feels like to lose a child, I am so terribly sorry for your loss may your rainbow baby be right around the corner.

So I was wondering something, anybody been on this group since it started? If so, has there been many/any ladies on here that got a BFP and moved to the due dates groups? Was just wondering no real reason...

AFM - (waaaaaayyyyy TMI) my lady bits seem to be acting up a bit...at the beginning of the year I had some issues and my doc sent it off for testing and turned out I washed myself too thoroughly so got thrush...what a mind bend...and it seems I have the same type of symptoms again...trying to treat with home remedies at the moment to see if I can avoid meds, trying to keep it as holistic as possible. Anybody have advice in this regard? I have read apple cider vinegar helps and I have also started to take a pro-biotic. Will get some tee-tree oil and see if that helps, but that is kind of all I have, any other advice?
Other than that, I am waiting...impatiently...my cycles have been 25/26 days recently, more 25 than 26 but around there anyway. I am currently on CD19 so that puts me at testing around (realistically) wednesday next week and I am PRAYING that our cut off was not too far away b/c my ovulation was off by a day...

Anyway, I still need to get some work done, hope everyone has a great rest of the day

@Ayesha if you don't mind me asking what is the cost for the holistic consultation, treatment plus meds etc? this is something a few friends have advised but honestly we have spent so much in the last year I just dont know how much more we can afford!! Hubby thinks i'm searching too much for solutions instead of trying to just let things be for a while but I want to try EVERYTHING!!! I just don't want to waste any time waiting waiting waiting!!

@chanti I'm on my 2nd month and hubby takes the coco his to give his little guys a boost lol. It's helping me lose a little weight around my tummy being on it so that's a good thing. And it's so much cheaper. If it helps all well and good and if it doesn't then at least it's all natural so not alot of meds with other chemicals...think my body needs the break from the meds 2 years of nonstop meds takes it's toll

@ayesha - Oh wow how amazing is that!!! How long have you been following this treatment for? Definitely agree with you

@chanti it's a coconut oil based tablet with a whole mix of other herbs there have been many success stories with it it's called coco hers. And I'm taking alot of vitamin b rich foods and greens. Broccoli is right on top n I hate broccoli. I think no matter what we always yearn for our own. I would love as many as I could have but I'm ok with starting with one and taking it from there
