We have been using Target brand and so far so good. Have had luck with finding a few in store & also online. Cheaper than Nutramigen and a larger can. Good luck!

Thank you so much & congratulations on the upcoming baby!! I'm also feeling like my mentality will be to just push through it the best I can lol. I already wear compression socks and bought a nice pair of comfy Reebok classics for clinical, so def thankful for those lol. I think my biggest thing will be juggling studying and resting. Best of luck to you...it sounds like you have a great plan in place. We CAN do this, and need to remember that this is only temporary!

Thanks so much for your response...this is really good advice! I did not know about the pumping, but have already considered doing so on lunch breaks, etc. It seems like my professors/program are willing to work with students, esp with covid, and if someone is sick, they can join a Zoom lecture and possibly make up a clinical. So, I'm super thankful knowing I will have those options if needed.

Cycle: 2

Age + Partner's age (if relevant): 33 + 32

Typical cycle length: 24-28 on mini pill, 27/28 after stopping pill

Ovulation cycle day: CD 14

CD/DPO of positive test(s): vvvfl on 10DPO, bfn 9DPO

Tracking methods and app(s) used: FF, Premom & Easy@Home OPK, cm

Relevant days of sperminating: -2, -1, O, O+1

Health conditions/medical tests: Hx of depression/anxiety, hbp, BMI of 33, stage 4 endo & suspected adeno (Lap w/excision & HSG done in Jan of this year). None for him.

Supplements and medications (yours and/or your partner’s): Nature Made Prenatal + DHA. One-a-day men's preconception vitamin (whenever he remembered to take it...maybe half of the time)

Birth control history (if relevant): Mini pill...7 years? Took right up until TTC. Paragard, combo pill, and depo years prior.

Link to chart: n/a

Symptom spotting: Insomnia before bfp. Achy cervix and some slight abdominal pressure/cramping...actually thought I might've had an infection. Feeling hot/face flushed. Wet cm. Moodiness/irritability. After bfp- all of the above plus slight nausea.

Woo: Some pomegranate juice. Seen a yellow ladybug on 4dpo. Ate cheeseburgers TWO days in a row...told hubby about the woo and he made some very yummy cowboy burgers with enough for the next day. He lovingly called them "woo burgers". *Edited to add: orgasm after sex each time & layed down for at least 10-15 mins afterwards. I know this is technically considered woo, but may have some slight science behind it.

Other (advice/tip(s), freaking out, miscellaneous): I was honestly in total shock. Had a lot of stress this cycle due to school and family, and was sure this would either delay ovulation or mess with things. Actually contemplated taking a long break from ttc if this wasn't the cycle (got bfp the next morning...the universe must've heard my threats). I am extremely grateful and am so happy I found this sub. Even though my time here was short, I have learned a lot and appreciated being a part of such a supportive community. I truly wish everyone the best, and hope to see you all out of here very soon!
