Hi my people,its good to know u are all doing great, am doing great here too,I can only imagine how good u girls are feeling right now and am glad we are all making progress together losing weight. @ RocksQueen. Congratulations Dear, am so......................very happy for u, well done, keep it up and before u know it, u'll get to ur desired weight.@ udoka, looking good is truly good business,u better get ready to change ur entire wardrobe because by the time u get to ur desired weight eh, na u go run go change am quick quick.I have not really done well in the last few days, i can't even dare log what I have been eating and am so scared that I might have added the 1kg back, my cousin's wedding last weekend also didnt help matters atall.by God's grace I'll be more stringent with my dieting and add some small small exercise to it. Dh is not just helping matters atall, he no wan hear dieting now, he is always buying all the things that I shouldn't be eating while am dieting but anyhow shall,I'll just try to discipline myself to be able to say no to the things I know are not helpful. Udoka, I can't wait to have u join us, am sure with u joining us we'll try and improve. this cycle will be for u girls a miracle for God will give u a pleasant surprise.

google is your friend Dear, u wont be disappointed

udoka2: yes ooo, but if the fasting finally ends, l fit add the weight back ooo, e bi like say na by force WL hehehe. Anyway, l didnt fast last week because l was on period, but his week na only morning food l dey skip. My only prayer is to maintain it ooo. The total WL from April till now is 10kg.

u wont add the weight by God's grace, I believe u'll maintain it if you continue to eat healthy, 10kg of weight loss no be small thing abeg, well done plenty eh, I finally climb the scale in the morning and its just 1kg that dropped o, atleast I try small.
@ Rocksqueen, where u now? abi u don tire for this our dieting, come on babe, don't give up ok.

@ seanbell,I usually do not produce cervical mucus, infact I can never remember since I started ttc seeing that EWCM,I have heard alot about robbitusin (main composition should be guaifenesin)and decided to try it along preseed, out of curiosity, I started reading extensively about it and found some not so pleasing materials about it, below is one of the materials I found and there are many more that I can't seem to get hold of at the moment, pls since you are in the medical field, could you make some research about the side effect? Especially where they talked about birth defects so we can know if its safe to still use. Thanks in advance.


Home Shop Guaifenesin Instead of Robitussin for Fertility
Robitussin for Fertility - Use Guaifenesin Tablets Instead
If you're trying to conceive, you've probably seen Robitussin cough syrup recommended to enhace fertility. Here's why you shouldn't use Robitussin -- take Guaifenesin tablets instead to get the same benefit.
Why is Robitussin suggested as a fertility aid?

* It contains Guaifenesin.
Some kinds of Robitussin, and many other cough syrups and cold remedies, contain the active ingredient guaifenesin. It's an expectorant, which helps loosen the mucus in the lungs by making it more watery, so it's easier to cough it up.
* Guaifenesin improves cervical mucus.
Guaifenesin has the same effect on the cervical mucus found in the vagina, as it does on the mucus in the lungs. Normally, cervical mucus (CM) naturally becomes slippery and watery near ovulation, and sperm can swim right through it on their journey to the egg. But if your cervical mucus doesn't thin out around ovulation, and instead stays thick and sticky, it can be a barrier that entangles sperm and prevents them from reaching the egg. Guaifenesin can help by making cervical mucus more watery.

Why Robitussin isn't the best source of Guaifenesin for fertility.
Robitussin
If you're TTC, Robitussin doesn't have your name on it.

* May NOT even contain Guaifenesin.
Many Robitussin cough syrups don't contain guaifenesin at all. You'll have to stand in the drug store peering at the ingredients on a bewildering array of Robitussin products to find the ones that do. (You'll find Robitussin CF, Robitussin DM, and a bunch of other letters, but there's no Robitussin TTC!)
* Contains additional active ingredients.
Even if you find a Robitussin cough syrups with guaifenesin, you'll find it's combined with additional active ingredients, which may reduce the effectiveness of guaifenesin in thinning cervical mucus, and could even have adverse effects on fertility.

Dextromethorphan is a common ingredient found in cough syrups. This ingredient may be linked with birth defects and should be avoided when trying to conceive.
* More expensive than tablets.
Guaifenesin in Robitussin costs about 10 times more than an equal amount in tablet form -- about $2.50 per day compared to $0.25 to $0.45 worth of tablets.
* You've tasted the stuff, right?

Guaifenesin tablets are now available over the counter.
Previously, a prescription was required to get Guaifenesin in tablet form, but now it's available over the counter. Safer because there's a single ingredient, cheaper, and no icky aftertaste!

Hi all, so much has been going on here lately,welcome to all d newbies and to all our preggo mamas, God bless and keep u all.
@ udoka2, I have not used fertilaid before, but I think u should follow d instrution on it since this is ur first time, u may decide to change if u feel d dosage is too high for u subsequently. I also think u can continue wit ur 50m..g vitamin b6, I learnt d daily recommended dose for b6 is 100m..g. I thot they said fertilaid does not work really well for people with regular period. I wish u d very best this cycle.
@all, Af caught up with me last night, am doing nothing this cycle, just my folic acid and vitamin b6.
wish everyone here in God's waiting room s quick and fast bfb in Jesus name.

@udoka2,we de here o,we de slack small but we'll be back.

@udoka,I know say b4 ur fasting go finish na me go begin jealous u, my height is 5.5ft
@Rocksqueen,welcome 2 ur cycle of bfp, God will surprise u.

@swit2have, I completely understand how u feel, I felt the same way about a week ago and I tell u, that's not a good place to be,let me tell u a bit about my own experiences, I got married less than 2 years ago and in the neigbourhood where we live, I can count about 10-15 women who are my neigbours and we interact very closely that have given birth since I got here,just a few days ago,my niece that I got married about a year before she did gave birth and of course I was very happy for her but u can imagine the kind of thoughts that were passing through my mind, my dear its really not easy but like u said these our children are very special children and that is why they are taking their time before they arrive . No matter what we feel or think lets just keep trusting God the giver of children for he has not forgotten us. its well o my sister.

Hi all, the devil is a liar and all of his plans concerning us has failed,thank God for the power of prayers, truly there is nothing like prayers and thank God we've been praying and we will continue to pray, testimonies of answered prayers have started pouring in on this forum and there will be more becos we'll continue to pray.Leornard Ravenhill once said "one might estimate the weight of the world, tell the size of the celestial city, count the stars of heaven, measure the speed of lightning, and tell the time of the rising and the setting of the sun-but you cannot estimate prayer powers. prayer is as vast as God because He is behind it, prayer is as mighty as God because He has committed himself to answer it.
@Aladuni I don't know jack about these things but thank for our sisters like Beetle, congratulations on your FSH and LH levels,
@Beetle,looking forward to your post on estradiol
@all, I was really sick last week and went in for a series of test,it was discovered that I had a severe case of candidiasis,I have been placed on some drugs that I will take for about a month.I try to research on how candidiasis can affect fertility and discover that, it can make your cervical mucus thick and hostile to sperm and I think that explains why I have never ever remembered having this EWCM that am always hearing about.Am just praying and hoping for the very best after this round of treatment. sprinkling lots of baby dust to everyone.

kai Rocksqueen, dis thing no easy atall o,now that am dieting am craving for all kinds of things that ordinarily I dont give a damn about, DH too is not helping matters becos he no gree join me for dieting this time again and preparing some kind of food for him and not eat eh, dat temptation too much abeg. lol @ resist the-----and it shall flee, true true I dey try resist but the thing no de gree flee o. I must stop this long throat things becos this fat must finish by fire by force.
Btw what are u weighing at the moment and what is your desire weigth? as at this morning I weigh 74kg and am hoping to gradually come down 2 69kg. are u including any exercise now, for me work stress no allow me do any exercise yet o, before I dey try dance for about 30mins-1hr but its been almost a month that I have not been able to move a muscle. God will help us o.
