BFN... No!

So I had vomiting and diarrhoea yesterday, and today AF shows up. What a fantastic week this is becoming : ( Give me strength!!! DH is giving it one more attempt, then he will stop the diet.. Don't blame him, but oh so frustrating...

Oh Maple, I'm sorry to hear that! I hope it happens for you on your next attempt. I'll be thinking of ya.

Ah Maple!!!!   I'm SOO sorry!!! Big hugs!!!

aww Maple...I know how you feel :( FX for BFP for all of us for the upcoming month!!

Oh, I'm sorry. Wishing you huge luck next cycle... to both of us ;)

 So sorry Maple!   I know how frustrating it is, it took me almost 6 months to conceive with DS3..

FX for a BFP next month!!!

Oh, I'm sorry. Wishing you huge luck next cycle... to both of us ;)

 

Good Luck to you too Krystal!!   Hope you get that BFP next month also!! 

Thanks Dreaming!!!! DH and I were actually on a break for 3 months since we were trying to avoid birth months around Christmas. And then this month, we missed out on because DH likes it to be spontaneous so he can't let loose (LOL) inside every time otherwise it's too obvious, so of course the night of ovulation, his friend comes by and we can't dtd. Ugh, men LOL!!!

I am so sorry to hear that, Maple. That is so unfair.... Are you still on strict diet and supplements? Hope you get BFP next cycle. Fingers crossed!!! 

Thanks ladies : ) I'm really glad I snuck that latte in yesterday before I saw AF, lol. Roll on another month. Good luck to those who are attempting soon! X

Thanks Cilantro : ) How have you been? Are you keeping well? I have been thinking of you. I am still following the IG diet and supps. It will be 6 months after my next attempt. I did reduce the supps however (after that crazy Feb we had). I cheat a bit in the 2WW - I really don't think I could continue if I didn't have those treats though. It's only really the odd coffee and chocolate/scone etc (never red meat, tomatoes etc). I am wondering about my douching. I only douche prior to DTD (not after), just to get my Ph below 4.5.. Not sure if I am comfortable dropping the douching if my Ph is too high for TTC pink.. Hope all is well X

So sorry to hear af turned up maple, it can get really depressing when she rears her ugly head again after another attempt... It's such a hard diet to follow, but you've done a great job so far and hopefully you will get a bfp next month! Even if dh does stop or really loosen up the diet, it's more important for you to be on it... As difficult as it is! Wishing you the best of luck for next month Maple!!

Thanks ThreeWillys - yes, it really does get depressing.. But, I would like a March baby, so fx for this cycle! You must be due this month??? I'm so excited for you, you must be desperate to meet her and very ready! Will you keep us updated on how things are going? All the best, enjoy the amazing time ahead XX

So sorry about AF:(  Are you doing lime douche?  How about using Rephresh before dtd or replens in the days leading up to dtd?  You should do something about pH if it is too high but it doesn't have to be lime.  Lots of pink dust to you this month, I hope this is your month!

Hey MountainView! How are you? I am using Acigel daily prior to O, and use it after DTD to lower combined Ph. I may drop the lime and use Acigel prior to DTD instead... I wonder if that would be worse for sperm though? Lime Douche VS Acigel... I like the idea of the lime douche because (TMI) - I feel like it gets right right up and around (being liquid) to lower ph. However lime does lower my Ph quite dramatically, compared to Acigel which lowers it gently.. What do you reckon?
