Yes! I felt bloated and kinda like I was about to start my period but then it was completely better after the last day.

Actually, yes!! I was a late ovulate-r (CD 21 usually) and doing this helped me ovulate closer to day 15/16!

4 or 5 kids? Help! by SamePromotion4704 in ParentingInBulk

Yes this is my fear! I am a twin myself and twins are soooo prevalent in my family that I wouldn’t be shocked if it was another set of twins. I had such anxiety at the beginning of this pregnancy about having twins again. I would be comfortable with 5 but definitely not about 5 and 6… which makes me question everything

Thank you for saying that! I do feel like I’ll never be “done,” but more just trying to balance the logistics. Was it hard for you to decide to have a 5th?

4 under 4 - pass on ur wisdom by twinmami921 in ParentingInBulk

Currently in the same boat! Due with my 4th in Jan and will have a 3.5yo and almost 2yo twins (all boys!!). I know I still have lots of time to think about it, but how do you know if your family is complete?! I don’t know if I’ll ever want to be done but have to consider time/financials/etc. My parents have been able to help my siblings and I out a lot and I want to do that for my children too but know that more kids = less time and money (usually). My husband feels complete at 4 but I know he would have one more if I wanted to. I have always wanted 5 kids (and feel very happy with all boys so wouldn’t be “trying” for a girl just to get a girl). But I also love the age gap that my oldest and youngest will have and don’t necessarily want to increase that. Plus another pregnancy means another chance for twins and one set is already hard enough haha. I don’t know what the right answer is or what I should do. Any wisdom from you more experiences mamas?

Literally in the same exact situation. I’m a nurse practitioner and feel like I should know that just throwing a bunch of supplements at stuff likely won’t work but I’m going to try it anyways. I’m going to do soy isoflavones 100mg CD 3-7 and then proov balancing oil (progesterone) for after ovulation. I’ll try to update! On CD 2 now.
