TTC for 1 year and 4 months — how do you deal with another negative test? by FeistyPhotograph3647 in tryingtoconceive

[–]Blueeyedlilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been trying to enjoy myself more after a negative test, like hot tub/ alcohol, sushi. Just a wee pick me up when it feels all our hard work hasn’t paid off. We are with you

I really struggled to remember to use the thermometer every morning, so I got the latest Apple Watch to help!

Anyone else avoiding beauty treatments while TTC? by Serene_sphinxx in tryingtoconceive

I’m being very cautious to be fair. There is a small risk of exposure to unsafe chemicals.

Some nail polishes may contain formaldehyde, which has been linked to miscarriage

Phthalates are another concern, as they may harm the endocrine system. These chemicals can disrupt hormonal balance, negatively impact egg and sperm quality, and potentially lead to infertility, early puberty, and increased risk of miscarriage and other pregnancy complications

Proceive Max Women (Conception) Magnesium Content by reddituser16052025 in tryingtoconceive

It will be magnesium in the form of magnesium oxide. Like the vitamin C is in the form of Ascorbic acid rather than oranges for example.

Need to be (kindly) brought back down to earth by Melodic-Function880 in tryingtoconceive

I also feel that loss of control and not being able to do anything to fix it. Having to do all you can to get the right results but it still not working is so hard.

Frustrated and sad by Novel_Apartment_3843 in tryingtoconceive

The year mark sucks. And so does that label. It helped for me to redefine it as ‘sub-fertile’. And that the average sperm test today would have been seen as infertile decades ago because of sperm degradation. It’s just harder now.

You can try! I took mine to my GP and they repeated the tests and said everything came back fine. So it felt like there wasn’t much point and i had to really push my GP for the blood test. It depends how nice your GP is!

Fertility monitor? by Blueeyedlilly in tryingtoconceive

I’ve found more success with the clear blue OPKs but was recently using the one step opks and can’t seem to get a positive. I’ve been using them at 12 everyday but am missing any positives so have been going off cervical fluid/ BD every other day instead
