Are y’all doing anything special with your regiment? Backstory: when I got pregnant with my son in July 2018, it was kind of a shock because my husbands morph is like, abysmal (seriously .05%). I was on folate, baby aspirin, berberine, coq10, a conception pill, a prenatal, fish oil, etc. My husband was on a men’s one a day, FertilAid, coq10, and fish oil. I was eating strict keto and working out 6 days a week. Still took more than a year and I was 32 when I got pregnant. Now I’m 34, and in quarantine, LOL not eating keto or working out regularly besides daily walks after dinner with the dogs and the stroller. I’ve been taking a prenatal, but I’m going to get new bottles of everything else. Have you guys found anything else to be helpful? Or any specific diets? *Grad warning* I added myo-inositol this time TTC after reading really good reviews on Amazon. Which one did you get? The Conception pill I was taking included myo-inositol but maybe by itself would be better?

If this cycle doesn’t work, I’m thinking of adding some more supplements. Maybe coq10? I need to talk to my RE. Thanks for reminding me!

Contacted my RE and she recommended COQ10 200mg 2-3 times per day if I wanted to do something. I think I’ll go ahead and get some this weekend.

how is everyone? onyx are you peeing on things yet? anyone else have uterus updates? 😂 This month has been... Chaotic. My children decided to “run away” from their dads and try to walk to my house at 6:30am. So they obviously got stopped by a stranger who called the police. Which prompted a DCF investigation on their dad and step mom, which has thankfully been closed after a home security system was installed. I don’t think they’re unsafe or anything other than my kids made a very, very poor decision. But anyways, aside from that, working, etc. I missed O pretty much completely. We had sex at -2. But I peed this morning and negative so I’m just waiting for AF. Mentally, I think AF will reset me from miscarrying and all of the other chaos. Oh, and I stress bought kayaks. I’m happy with my purchase.

holy shit onyx that is... chaotic indeed. i’m sorry your kids made that decision. can’t say i haven’t done the same exact thing as a child though. a hormone reset is good. i’m glad you’re okay with whatever happens. sometimes going with the flow for a month (lol, literally) is the best thing to do mentally.

They scared the hell out of me tbh. I’m thankful someone “good” picked them up. I was disappointed when it was a BFN, but logically I know sex has to happen and this month it didn’t for like 2 weeks lol

We’re having a baby shower at work today- for my favorite coworker- and while I’m happy for her and knew it was happening. I’m aching so much.

I’m in the same boat onyx. Tomorrow is the due date of my early loss. My sister in law is due in 8 weeks. My daughter’s new favorite you tube video is a song about being a helpful big sister. It makes me so sad. I had really hoped to be pregnant by now. It blows.

If it’s that fucking Bounce Patrol one about “mommy’s got a baby in her belly” I almost launched the iPad out our french doors this morning when it came on.

It makes her so happy and it would be the sweetest if I weren’t so frustrated about getting pregnant.

I hate that so many of us are in the same boat. My sil just had a baby and my due date before my loss was in a few weeks.I have no desire to see pictures and join the zoom meetings to ooh and ahh over the New baby. It's nice to have a place to vent about it. I don't feel like I have anyone to talk to about it in my real life.
Anyways, I ovulated early this month but still had good timing. I'm 7 dpo today.

EXACTLY. I’m like so many of my friends are pregnant. Their step mom is pregnant. And I so badly wish I didn’t have all these feelings but fuuuuck. I’m only “waiting” for month 5. But the loss is making it harder.
Coworkers were commenting to a male coworker about his wife who just announced she’s pregnant and they were all like YOURE NEXT.
And I’m like ugh. I want so badly to be next.

She's a "I'd rather have support" person so she always announces incredibly early. I've only been trying for a few months for #2, but it took over a year for #1, and I guess I'm still bitter. So I hid her. 🤷🏼♀️

But I guess my people aren’t good with it.

I mean obviously, kindly. But definitely jealous that I can’t/don’t feel confident at that point? Before my losses I was that way. I miss it.

hugs for everyone struggling. i’ve had 3 people message me on IG with the famous “you pregnant yet?” out of the fucking blue. no i’m not but i guess thanks for that slap in the face? i say no and then i get some GREAT advice! “have you tried praying?” “just relax!” hearing what works for other people’s sister’s cousin’s mom who had a friend who struggled with infertility and loss cured me. 🙌🏾
