Thanks, it’s certainly worth a go isn’t it!

Vespa this might sound a silly question but I keep hearing about the grapefruit juice lol so my silly question is does it have to be like any in particular/concentration/ organic or anything?! Lol I don’t think I’ve ever noticed grapefruit juice anywhere! I’ve just found some maca in Aldi not sure it’s going to be the best /top of the range stuff but I figure if I can stomach it il buy better stuff. I’ve also started on the pregnacare vitamins but only this past week! Was folic acid only before.but I noticed a real drop in mood this month so hoping extra vitimans will help.

I got the 100% Grapefruit juice by Tropicana, should be in any of the big supermarkets. I drank 200ml per day from about cd8 and then stopped after ovulation.

Did you notice a big change in CM? I'm tempted to give this a go, on CD10 today. x

Yeah, I did, far more and better quality than other months.

 

[Mandy123]

I’m sort of gutted I’m the wrong side of ovulation to try it! Lol the things that excite us!

 

[Vespa]

Completely agree Mandy, I was all geared up for Maca next month! Hopefully this sticks, I’m trying not to get too excited.

I have actually never tried grapefruit juice and will be adding this to my shopping list.
Every little helps, ladies haha xx

 

[Mandy123]

Haha I’m tempted to throw it all out of the window next month & just eat crap, not take vitimans get drunk as that seems to work for others! (Not meaning us here!) Maybe il keep that for December & have mulled wine literally every night after work!

I really do hope one day I will see that second line... just feels like that would be like winning the lottery right now. I’d struggle to believe it x

Mandy - cycle 5 is your lucky cycle.
You wont be allowed mulled wine every night because you will have a little bean growing inside you

Golden grapefruit or pink grapefruit juice Vespa?! Hahaha. Getting some after work now! Did you say stop after ov? X

 

[Stacey89]

Congratulations vespa, really hope this is it for you.
I will be adding the juice to my shopping list! X

 

[Mandy123]

I hope so Char fingers crossed for us all but if not I’m defo on the mulled wine!

 

[EmmaN27]

Hopefully Vespa is the start of loads of October BFPs x

 

[chattychar1990]

I use to be quite a big drinker but since TTC i have properly gone off alcohol. I know this is a good thing because it helps but it has really surprised me that i never really fancy a 'bev' at the weekend now.
Maybe its my age creeping up on me too haha!
A hot choc and a blanket in front of the sofa sounds more up my street these days. HOW SAD!!

 

[EmmaN27]

Hahaha me too Char, but I am 34! X

I used the golden. Yeah, I stopped after 1dpo as we stopped

 

[Vespa]

Mandy, this was our 6th cycle and we did everything right for the others so I know what you mean. And I’m a hypocrite saying to keep the faith when I literally could not come on here at the weekend but your time will come

I think she said 200ml a day x

 

[EmmaN27]

I think 200ml is size of small plastic cup?! X

 

[chattychar1990]

Vespa - i have a FF question for you
How do i get my chart as my ticker like you? Will it update automatically when i put my temps in every day?

xx

Do you have a measuring jug at home Em?
I would measure it like that and pour it into a cup and then use the same cup so you know exactly where to pour to xx
