Going all out TTC this month.. trying everything! opinions..

[kristenann]

OK.. so i have always been a bit of a control freak. this month i am giving up the opks (serious its really hard for me to NOT know when im ovulating or be testing, even now i wince at thought)

I am also going all out with trying some new supplements which may / may not help but id like some opinions!

firstly, regarding my diet i am lowering sugar as much as i can now - i am eating pretty healthy i would say and more balanced, before i was losing weight but eating fairly high sugar...

secondly, i am giving dh this .. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B001E177J6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 a "just in case" thing.. where if he suffers from motility we are trying to address issue .. but i am not sure what dosage to give him a day.

thirdly, i am taking this..
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0188F273G/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 but i am only having half the dosage so only 1 teaspoon not 2 so i dont completely knock regular cycles out of wack.. again opinions please? i take this along side zinc and 400mg folic.

I am also leaving all the "try" times to hubby.. again im so ocd and paranoid and structured its probably ganna drive me nuts to not be in control of it but i will instead let him decide and lead.

I will however insist on one try on when i "feel" im close to ovulating.. where we try we a menstral cup and hold the stuff there as we havent yet tried that method!

Im hoping #10 is my lucky number!!

Good Luck to everyone else.

menstral cup? now that is a new one on me! My massage lady is an advocate for those for normal purposes but this definitely is thinking out of the box!

I am curious about the menstrual cup!

 

[kristenann]

Menstral cup thing is where you put partners sperm in it and insert and let it all sit directly on cervix.. just heard it *could* help and since i am definately going all out with trying this month i need to try this atleast one cycle and soon!

*edit i am also doing 3 fertility yoga poses a day cause again..why not?*
