2WW - for those TTC-ing

Piggling said:
I also heard a few people recommend, good for women overall.
But I also feel your MIL is nice as I feel really not many will do extra for people who are not their own children.
I agree the role of women is not just to have kids. I think should be based on personal preference. Just like I don't think getting married means must have kids and if don't want kids, shouldn't get married. I think that is not a v good thinking. Getting married should be because the two people are in love and want to be together forever, like stay together, etc.

My mom also thought I am being a bit .. cranky and sensitive. arrrrrr.....

Haha .. my MIL herself also had fibroids (and endometriosis??? i am not sure) and she didnt manage to have more kids other than my hb...Even if she did.. The only thing I can say is.. It isnt a sin to not have kids , plus the role of a woman isnt just to make babies. Women can earn big bucks and be very successful too.

Ba Zhen help in TTC meh? My problem is ovulation ah. I dont have problems with cramps, as with flow (just nice, not super heavy or v light ).

Yes we can be a wonderful women for work and kid, i think only women can make it.

Regarding ba zhen soup, one of my friend told me it is good for our womb and body.
 
Piggling said:
Why she thinks that way?

Cos I told my mom i feel like my MIL is tracking my AF cycle..she will know when i am not having my period and when i am mah right? haha...And she said the same thing as what u and LoveG said.. that my MIL is v nice and she regards me as her daughter so she boils the soup for me.

If there is an additional benefit of giving me crystal clear skin I will be more than happy to drink that .. ignore the fact tt it is for my womb, and drink it for the sake of beauty!! wooo!

:)actually can understand from your point of view.
As probably we did not have a MIL like this, so we will feel like is very nice but maybe for you, you want to have your own space too. your MIL maybe not want to track your AF cycle but just trying to find topics and to see if her soup helps you.
Sometimes the way elderly show their concern, quite different also. Can make us feel naggy but maybe we will be like that too when we are their age! LOL

I think the ba zhen soup, can go TCM and get the ingredients then brew the soup.
As for the red date tea, I think the method you said is workable. What I read is rinse all ingredients, add hot water let it stand for 15 minutes before drinking
 
I finally manage to bd yesterday but today temp still no spike yet still on the low side. How ah? No more positive opk liao. Shld I bd tml again?

wash the dried longan and red dates (seeds removed)
Boil a pot of water,
add in the red dates,
after the water starts boiling again add in the longans.
you can add the wolf berries last.
turn the flame lower and boil it further till the color of the tea turns darker.

thank u babe. hope to find time this wekeend to do..
 
gammahedging said:
hmm i am drinking my longan reddates wolfberry drink every day (sometimes every other day, cos lazy to wash the stuff). just dump the ingredients into a small flask, enuff to make 1 cup. i nv remove the seeds .. mm. acty if i am drinking this, does it make drinking ba zhen soup redundant? if i am drinking this maybe i can tell my MIL save the effort of making ba zhen soup... make me sth yummier instead. =X AND i dont need to tell her if i am having my menses?????? Plus i dont suffer from menses cramps.. So i tink my body generally is ok except tt i got pcos??!

very nice of your MIL.... I can only say... most ppl will find that they are in a better position (good MIL) when they heard all my stories....

At least she bother to cook something for you to bu shen.... My MIL will only buy me some food that I'm avoiding when she want to show me how unhappy she is (she know i'm avoiding seafood esp prawns *too toxic* and she bought me prawn soup noodles.... =(

Piggling i let it soak for 1.5-2 hrs at least so the taste is stronger.. 15 mins i feel like..not much taste haha . do u add any sugar? i dont .. like for 1 cup i have 5-6 rred dates, abt 10-20 wolf berries, 4-5 longans

yar food-wise... just try to know what you should eat and what you shouldn't lor... our bodies are for ourselves to protect... my mil also dunno anything... and everyday force me to drink all the liang soup and liang drinks... say weather v hot must drink every morning and evening and night... super duper bad for the body but bobian... it actually comes from a naive thinking, not purposely want to harm to womb... >.<

I think you haven't o yet but will o anytime, maybe you want to BD till temp rise up?

Our eggs can only survive between 12 to 48hrs, why Doctor or even TCM always ask us to BD alternate day at least 3 times? Can still catch an egg after 48hrs?

hard to say... 12 hrs is just an estimate. Also, what you measure is all hormonal surges etc, is not exactly the actual release of the egg... which happens some time after the hormonal surge... tt's why must still bd after to cover all bases :)

Twinkletot don't delay too long to test after AF due if you have spotting, some people might have it in early pregnancy, knowing it early so that you can ask for extra support. I was told during ivf.

Dun worry dear, we have a few late 30s in here, u r def not the oldest and we are def young at heart.

Actually I have something to share, I am a Christian, I hope I dun offend anyone here, but just wanna have faith and hope in here.

There was one day our pastor shared about a sermon about sometimes we will wonder y everyone gets pregnant so easily and some of us keep waiting and wonder when is our turn. And he just want us to know bec we are special, That's y the delay. Our baby who came late will be a special baby. Press on my dear sisters!

I usually buy live flower crab from extra, just steam it with salt and ginger, don't have to kill them before cook. More easy and yummy.

I have just bought durian for the next 7days till my implantation over. Hope it really help.
