AF is Here But I'm Cool With it

aside of the annoying cramps that is.

We are going to put TTC on hold until July bc the nature of my business- (it just isn't smart to give birth and be on mat leave Nov-March)

What's great is that this allows us to put a bid on our dream house that might be out of our price range if we had a baby in 08 and take a really nice anniversary vacation in the spring. I/we are excited about this.

I also learned something about my cycles. It turns out I have a super short leutal phase. I O'd on day 19 and got AF on day 28. Last month I O'd on day 21 and got AF on day 30.

For the future is there anything that can be done to lengthen my phase???

TIA and best of luck to all of you lovely ladies that are expecting and TTC Chat Icon

Re: AF is Here But I'm Cool With it

that's good news - good luck with your house!

i also have a short LP, about 8-9 days, so i started taking b-complex viatmins and they worked well enough for me to get PG! B6 is the important viatmin, but you should get b-complex because i think the other viatmins help your body absorb the B6 more efficiently. good luck!!

Glad to hear you have such a positive outlook! It sounds like the house and vacation opportunity is great.

Thanks to headoverheels advice, I just started taking B complex vitamins.

Good luck!!Chat Icon

Hey Brittny~ you sound like you are in a good "place" emotionally.... It seems I may have a short LP phase as well.

I've read that B6 can help, but to REALLY help, your Dr. can prescribe progestrone cream that you use from O til about 14 or 15DPO.

I'm going to chart one more month and if it's still too short- I'm going to call my doc.

i agree with this: b complex vitamins with B6 may help some people, but the underlying cause may be a progesterone deficiency, and if the b complex doesn't work, definitely consult your OBGYN!
