Berries n Jas: Yup! Maybe non fertile period, you can use oral, but during fertile period, try not to do it. You can use your magic hands

Jas: Yup, try to relax. That happened to us also until dh had performance problem. What I did was... if I know tonight need to bd, I would apply the pre seed without dh knowing. Then I just attack him... like a tiger pouncing on the prey...

Good morning ladies! It's Fri, yippee!

Today is DPO 10... these 2ww is really crawling along so so slowly. I'm supposed to go on my holiday on 29 Sep, so this weekend, I will find out if I'm slated for Project B (baby), or Project S (shopping). If it's B, I will very very happily give up S. But if B is not meant to be, then I guess I can take some solace in S. Hee.

Have a great trip Berries! Go for a "Made in HK"!! *wink*

Mummyjay I have been TTCing for 21 mths already, SIGH!! But well, just gotta hope for the best each month.

Good luck to everybody testing!

thanks twinklely, reiko, jas and bbcripps!!!

reiko : u can plan a hoilday too!! i find i too stress in spore le.. need some break.. and i can distract myself too in my 2ww.. else i will have alot of imaginary symptoms again...
dun stress urself!! sometimes no symptoms is a gd sign too.. *crossed everything for u*

jas : yes.. sometimes after shitting wen i wipe.. i will tend to see a long ewcm.. sry TMI..

joce : i tink maybe u drink tiny weeny bit? but i tink the best is dun drink if can.. but will cause suspicious...

bbcripps : hmmm.. my fertile week pass liao le.. tink cannot make in HK.. but really hope after the HK trip will come bk with gd news.. lagi best!! hee.. tink too much again here.. lol
dun give up my dear!!! tis might be ur mth!! gdluck!!
 
Berries, thanks for clarifying. I tot my ovulation came early.

joce: drink one or two glasses is okie. Just nurse &amp; guard the glass whole day can liao.
 
Jas,
Just say you are driving, so no drinking for today. Or you just recovered from (throat infection), so doc advised no drinking?

Yeah, SG so stressed. For #1 I always go holiday, but end up made in SG. This time round, hmm... i'm just taking it easy...
 
Oic.. haha.. ok. shall try to limit to 1-2 glass. >"< cus the event is drinking event and cfm have to drink. till now i still don't know when to start testing on HPT. Doc prescribe Duphaston tab for me till this sun. so is it i should wait till after sunday to test?
 
I read in some threads tat drinking grapefruit juice and eating dragonfruits helps in fertilization process (no medical evidence hor). so i went to buy Florida's Natural Grapefruit juice (1.75L) &amp; 5 dragonfruits last nite. Carrying heavy stuff gives me headache sia as i m slighlty low blood.
 
btw, for those who always takes folic acid, unity is selling them at $3.19 for 100 tablets, way cheaper den gynae! Its eactly the same as what my gynae gave me.. I bought mine last nite.
 
ya... medicine from gynae very ex.. i also dunno y... tats y i bought it outside.. probably i will try to buy the one u recommend at unity.. thanks!!
 
strawberries, yup just purely folic acid. But previously i oso bought pre-natal from GNC before gynae gave me folic acid. So now i take two together. Dun wan to waste my pre-natal cos still got one more bottle.
 
jas: Regarding the EWCM after shitting, I have experienced it too and asked my gynae but she said that is not considered fertile as it is from different holes (Sorry if TMI or crude :p)
 
TTCing: How is it different hole? After shitting, the EWCM is from vagina also right? Not from the ass hole?
happy.gif
 
Hi Reikohopes, tink drink before ovulation. It helps with the ewcm. But then again, its an old wives's remedy..

TTCing: thanks for the info. so our cm can come out from diff holes for diff scenarios?
 
jas: I m not too sure what is the ''EWCM'' that comes out after shitting but fertile CM should secrete from the uterus / vagina opening, not from the anus...
 
u can buy red dates and dried longan from any shop, ntuc, medicinal halls, etc. For me, i put few longans &amp; red dates in a cup &amp; pour hot water &amp; drink after half an hour. Not sure if this is the correct way onot.
 
Tips found online:
Grapefruit Juice: There seems to be lots of speculation on this tip. Some women swear it is one of the best tips for getting pregnant and others not so much. There also seems to be some missing data and studies that would either confirm or refute the viability of using grapefruit juice to increase chances of conceiving.

However, grapefruit juice may slow down metabolism of estrogen (estradiol) leading to increased levels in the blood. Estrogen is one of the things indirectly responsible for increased fertile EWCM (egg white cervical mucus) just before and during ovulation among other things such as the development of the endometrial lining which accepts and nourishes the embryo at implantation.

I do know one thing; it can not hurt you. If all it does is help increase your fluid intake for hydration, then good enough. It may also increase the quantity and quality of your mucus and increase the thickness and nourishing qualities of the uterine lining, and so on. Try it, it just might work for you. Plus, when you drink it, it can help with pH balance of your vagina. pH balance is necessary for the survival of sperm.

You should be sure to get the all-natural, not-from-concentrate form and drink about 4 to 5 glasses a day for about a week before you expect to ovulate.

Lemon Juice: Add some lemon juice to your tea or just add some to a cup of hot water each morning. A great tip for getting pregnant. This juice can help with the pH balance of your vagina making it more alkaline. PH balance is important if sperm are to survive the trip through your vaginal canal. An acidic environment is hostile to sperm and can kill them.

Your body naturally prepares for this, as your vagina is normally more acidic than it is alkaline. As you near ovulation fertile quality cervical mucus helps to tone down the acids making it more environmentally friendly to sperm making it more alkaline. But sometimes, our mucus isn't as abundant as it needs to be. Your body uses lemon juice to help make the vagina less acidic and more alkaline. And any help you can give it is all for the good.


Guaifenesin: Cold relieving products that contain this ingredient, such as Mucinex and Robitussin, can help to thin your cervical mucus. Thinner mucus is needed in order for the sperm to swim up through the cervix. If your fluids are too thick it blocks sperm from getting where they need to go.

Note: Make sure that guaifenesin is the only active ingredient in the cold remedy that you choose. Some other active ingredients that are in some cold medicines can actually dry up mucus.

Think about it. This is the ingredient that thins and breaks up bronchial mucus (phlegm) to make coughs more productive. It works the same way with cervical mucus. Take it orally as directed on the package for about 5 to 6 days before ovulation.

Evening Primrose Oil (EPO): Again, cervical mucus is most important to conceiving for transporting and nourishing sperm. Evening primrose oil (EPO) helps to increase the quantity and quality of your cervical fluids. Taken orally.

Drink Lots of Water: Drink plenty of water. At least 8 to 10 glasses a day. I can't stress this enough, this is one of the best tips for getting pregnant faster. Being thoroughly hydrated makes your whole body function most optimally, let alone your reproductive and endocrine systems. Hydration also increases your cervical mucus, which is vital to getting pregnant. Water just makes everything work better so drink up.
 
Cheeka : i think maybe she was afraid of being found out thats why she say she didnt know. How can 1 don't have menses for 9 mths? Its just weird that her tummy can fit into her army uniform.
 
ya, its so weird &amp; unusual. U may not know if u are in your first trimester or have irregular menses. But baby will kick u mah. den yur boobs will b bigger too.
Mayb her army pants are elastic?
 

Have you gals seen the tv show i didn't know i was pregant? That's pretty interesting how all of them went through 9 months without a clue.
I think it's on home and discovery
