Hi & happy weekend! So, AF is finally almost gone and now my brain is going non-stop about what to do different. I looked at some PG charts on FF and I think maybe we BD too much last cycle... by the time I O'd MH was probably worn out. I think I am going to try to tone it down a notch this time around.
I bought POM juice last night (holy crap expensive... dh almost died) and green tea. I am REALLY bad with drinking a lot of water so i'm trying to do that this time as well.
Question 1 is, how much POM juice should I drink? I drank one cup this morning.
Question 2, should I try pre-seed for the hell of it? I have heard mixed things about whether it helps or doesn't help with conception but I figure it can't hurt can it? I have noticed ewcm but not a whole lot of it.
TIA & enjoy the weekend
Re: POM, Green Tea, BD and a question about preseed
According to the Newbie Link:
PreSeed
You can also buy PreSeed, a sperm-friendly lube. You can order this from early-pregnancy-tests.com or by checking the PreSeed website for stores. This is the only lube safe while ttc, regular lube and saliva can kill sperm. If you do order preseed, don?t use too much, a little goes a long way
Pom
Pomegranate juice can help to thicken your lining which would help with implantation. If you don?t like the flavor, try adding some sparkling water. Drink 8oz of juice a day from CD1-O. You can drink it past ovulation, but it won?t impact your lining at that point.
I would think maybe a 1/2 cup to a cup of POM. You can also buy pomegranates if you like them (though the season is ending). There's also other brands other than "POM" that are a bit less pricey.
I tried Pre-Seed this cycle just for funsies. I don't see the harm in it if you go in with the mindset that it's just lube and not some miraculous means of getting pregnant.
Good luck, hope you have a nice weekend too
I'm on CD 4 today so I hear you about trying to think 'what can I do different?'
