I, the Ginger, have a plan!

Yes, I do! My plan is to be pregnant by Christmas.

Of course, that was also my plan *last* year, but I won't mention it if you don't mention it!

So, cycle 18 ...

I've started charting again, from day 1 of AF, and I'll think about whether to post the chart on FF or not. I have no idea how, but if I decide to, I'll work it out.

I'm also going to try and chart my CM so that I have an idea how that correlates to my temps.

I'll use OPKs next cycle.

I'm also taking liquid herbs internally 2-3ml twice a day to help things along. This is what's in them, with a very basic idea of what they're for:

Shatavari - Rejuvinating reproductive organs & infertility 80/200ml
Chaste - Normalise menstruation 20/200ml
Withania - For calming the nervous system, and diseases which produce inflammation 50/200ml
Damiana - General tonic for hormone related conditions, also thought to be an aphrodisiac, and used for anti-anxiety 30/200ml
Licorice - to help it taste a bit better, and used as an expectorant 20/200ml

Now, it tastes *disgusting* (ergo. the licorice does *not* work for that purpose at all!)...but whatever it takes, right? Those figures at the end are to show how many ml of the 200ml bottle the components make up.

I think that's about it for now ...

Oh, adn one other thing! I'm also treating myself. This weekend I am getting a skin analysis and facial at the place where I get my hair etc done, and next weekend I'm getting a hair cut. It's little things that give me something to look forward to in amongst all this other stuff

And that's the plan!

I agree with the licqorice, I had a concoction as well and they said that it would make it taste better, but I think it made it taste worse, blah. It would be helpful if liquid herbs tasted a bit better.

All the best Ginger. Are you Ginger cos you have red hair?

make sure you add in drinking robitusson cough mixture (the stuff with the "G" ingrediant) and 70% cocoa mass chocolate - the dark stuff.
Good luck ginger, hope it works for you. will cross my fingers, but not my legs for a special xmas present

Good luck with that plan sounds good

yup, the strong dark choc has something in it that is good for making babies. so eat eat eat!

good luck - hope the plan works...look forward to updates
and i too support the robitussin (or similar) plan...our is a cough syrup baby (cause we were both sick) and so is a friends new baby boy...they were also both sick...so not sure if it works if only one takes it...I highly recommend it...remember it has alcohol in it if u need an excuse LMAO!!!

< language=> good luck Ginger, hope you will be joining us in the Morning Sickness club soon.

Dont forget the must vital ingrediant lots & lots of .............you know Loving and try to make it spontanious sometimes adds to the forgetfulness of the whole purpose behind it......
