So AF wins another one (month that is)....?

Question

So my good old friend AF can yesterday while i was out with the BF. I should of been upset but I wasn't because as I stated before its not over till the fat lady sings. This month I'm going to give it all i have. I have one more month of clomid left (100mg), I bought a fertility monitor, I bought pre seed, and yes, I plan to chart. I'm treated infertility as my personal cancer and I will not let it win. Any TTCers with me??

Answer 1

Right On!!!! i completely feel the same way. i have been ttc for a good year and a half. but basically just doing the baby dance and on a few months using OPK's. for the past few months i have been down on myself and getting really discouraged. HOWEVER....i decided to get positive and take charge. i went out and bought a thermometer, i've been checking my CM. my cousin gave me the book, "taking charge of your fertility," and i read to take 2Tbs of robitessan daily leading up to ovulation because of the Guaifenesin, it helps thin out your CM if you think it may be too thick for the sperm to travel in. So i am totally on the same page as you! CONGRATS!!! Best of luck to you! Lets stay positive and make THIS month the month!!!

Answer 2

Oh yeah, AF arrived for me yesterday as well LIKE CLOCKWORK, which in a way was a good thing for me.  I miscarried in March and have had off cycles up until July.  July and August's cycles were BANG ON and I'm actually excited about that because now I know.  I have been trying everything -- opk's, preseed, robitussin, started charting 2 months ago, checking CM and now I'm on evening primrose oil which I was only able to use for 1 week instead of 2 last month and it made a BIG difference in my EWCM (I actually seen some for the first time in 7 months!)  Hubby has also agreed to start taking zinc and whatever else I want him to do (he's so awesome!)  I won't let it get me down, I know I can get pregnant (have a 3yo and one miscarriage), it's just not something that comes quickly or easily to me (6mos and 10mos to conceive).  Instead of looking at AF as a bad thing, I look at it as another month of "fun fun fun" lol, life goes on and I don't want mine to be miserable while I'm waiting!  Best of luck to us all and tons of sticky baby dust!

You Go Girl! Keep that Positive Attitude! I am testing in the next couple of days so I am still in the waiting game.  Just wanted to say my fertility monitor is just sooo cool.  Wait until you see a peak day, you'll prob get all giddy. Best of Luck! Baby Dust!

Answer 4

Yeah good attitude I thought Aug was my month too because I was 5 days late and I'm never late but my period also came yesterday.

Answer 5

It's so great that you are upbeat and determined to not let this win!  Congrats for being so positive!  Good luck to you and I hope I can stay as positive as you are!
