*** APRIL 2021 testing thread ***

Morning ladies.

I just had to show you my bargain of the year. No one else would appreciate it. Even hubby was amazed

I got 18 first response tests for £7.20!!!

I think @Mrsbridge17 would be proud of me!

Oh and I relented and started using opks again along with basal temp‍ I have an instant surge over 24-36hrs, makes it tricky.

I hope everyone’s ok!

I saw an article yesterday about certain foods to eat and it mentioned protein from vegetables rather than meat , eggs and brazil nuts. So this cycle im going to eat a couple of brazil nuts a day, eat more eggs, and eat more green veg. I'd say I eat half meat and half quorn/tofu usually. I dont eat much red meat. X

I’m vegetarian so tend to eat quorn. Could eat more eggs though. Not keen unless they are fried lol. Brazil nuts are very expensive. I tend to get medley bags in pound land. Don’t think just Brazil’s count do they lol xx

Haha well it did say it's the York that was the important part of the egg, so it should be fine fried

Haha i don't know. I look earlier whilst I was in tesco and the Brazil nuts were £4 for a bag xx

I have broccoli, sprouts and spinach a lot xx

Ive been eating brazil nuts (1 a day) for a about 2 weeks now. I hope they work. On the top of that I started taking royal jelly.

Probably won't get a BD in today, husband came home an hour late last night and got maybe 3 hours of sleep the night before. I'm letting the poor man sleep today

Here's my chart of the last few days, I'm hoping we BD'd at the right time since the first "peak" wasn't actually my peak. Temp has gone up again so egg definitely released yesterday.

I dont really eat much red meat, its rare we do, but I do have milk often in my coffee (decaf), I think I'll swap it to oat milk x

Hey ladies....

just went and got more opks! Promised myself I wouldn’t lol. I’m due to ovulate any day now, Tuesday I think!

picked up some Brazil nuts in Poundland too. Biggish bag 75g for a £1.

I’ve actually gone up to semi skimmed milk as it’s better for baby. I Normally have skimmed milk, I can’t quite manage full fat lol!

we’ve also added a glass or orange juice each day to help with vitamin C! Xx
