Bah Humbug!!!!

I know, I know, wrong season, but I am spotting and Neg Hpt soooo, AF is just pulling up to the curb.  So much for catching the late CD28 "O" day.  But my LP turns out to be about 14days....Good to know.  On to the next cycle any suggestions on what else to do or not do?

I take,

1500mg metformin daily
2 prenatal vitamins
2 iron tablets 600 mg total
1 B6 tablet
1 Folic Acid tablet
1 B12 sublingual (under the tongue dissolving)
2 vitamin C's 1000mg total

Is there anything else I can take to improve my eggs (I'm 39 this summer, getting old as so are my eggs possible cause to the blighted ovum pregnancies as seen in sigi) am I taking too much of something resulting in failure, etc, etc, etc.

I have also taken 100 mg of Clomid cd5-9 for the past few cycles, thinking of taking a break, but unsure, I have about 4 days to decide if I am gonna fill this script or not.

Thanks for your help and suggestions ladies.

don't have any advice about your supplements....just wanted to say sorry about AF showing up (she sucks big moose balls)!!

LOL that made me laugh, Thank you for the giggles

Sorry girl!  I took Clomid 4 cycles before I got pregnant.   Your luteal phase looks good...I would hang in there another cycle or two.  Has your husband's sperm count/testosterone level been checked? Also, you're not having sex too much are you?  I think that hurt us in our earlier cycles.  I took clomid days 5-9 too; and MD said to have sex days 10, 12, 14, and 16.  Too much sex without giving sperm counts time to recover can lead to low sperm counts on the day you need the bigger counts.  Just suggestions.  Good luck!!!!

I dont really have much advice to offer but it does seem like youre taking an awful lot of vitamin supplements.  Does your OB have you on 2 prenatals daily in addition to the iron, B6,B12 and C's?  The only reason i ask is because the other day i was reading an article about taking vitamin supplements before and during pregnancy and it said to make sure you take the correct amounts, that too much of certain supplements can be harmful (as well as a deficient amount).  I'll see if i can find it and post it here for you.  Obviously, if your taking all the vitamins your doc is telling you to then completely disregard my post, but if not, then maybe check with your OB to see exactly what you should be taking in addition to your metformin and folic acid.

Good luck.  I know how discouraging TTC can be.  Hang in there!!
