@Taby82210@twin_angels We heard about it and read it online. It sounded weird and I wasn't sure about it, online they said it was safe though. So.....you use a clean glass (obviously) and crack an egg (make sure you ONLY get egg whites in the glass (if you get any part of the yoke then it would be unsafe. It needs to sit in the glass for about an hour (to get to room temperature) then you use a syringe (not a needle!) (I thought this was gross, but I want a baby so bad that I will do anything that is safe!) Then you ly down on your back and insert the egg whites (it is better to prop pillows under you for leverage so that the egg whites don't slip out.) Then you and your partner enjoy (there is really no nice way to say it) then they recommend to ly still for at least 15 min while lying still and elevated. The egg whites act as ovulation......this did not work for us but we only did it once.
My parwnts ate eggs 3-4x a day for about 3 wks and ended up pregnant. This was 20 yrs ago after yrs of fertility specalists and all the tricks.....couldve been luck but everyone my mother has shared this with had a baby shortly after ;;) good luck!
No egg whites, the whole egg. Like breakfast preparation. Egg salad or boiled eggs for lunch on the side, deviled eggs....anything egg! You will eventually HATE everything with eggs lol My sister and I are 8 yrs apart, my parents tried EVERYTHING. After the eggs they concieved.
I'm not a pro or anything but have had a couple anat/phys classes lmao and I'm pretty sure egg whites can't "act" as ovulation, ovulation is when the egg is released from the ovary. Maybe the egg whites help carry sperm to the egg, but imo putting anything up there does not sound like a good idea.
Try yams? Eat yams (real yams) they are supposed to induce ovulation because of a chemical that mimicks pregnancy hormones. Also, milk and other dairy will increase your ovulation chances. Plus all the positions and other things I'm sure you are trying
@ashes I know the egg whites were a crazy and very strange idea.......I don't think we will be doing it again I think the key is that you have to use the egg whites w/ ovulation to make it easier for the egg. idk we read a lot of articles & thought let's try it......& I've read the yams but its near impossible to get real ones in the US @Singlemomofsoontobe3 Thank-you!!!!
Have you been ttc very long? It took us 3 years, a lot of testing and finally 3 cycles of Clomid. We are 7 weeks pregnant now...If you have been ttc for 6 months and still no luck, it could be time to consult your gyn and discuss infertility testing. The sooner you start, the better. I soooooo know how it is every month to get your period and feel you failed yet again...it's agony. Try not to be so hard on yourself...it will happen eventually, you just might need a little help is all...Good luck and God bless
@iemommie Yes, hubby & I have been ttc for 17 months now. We first saw my primary dr, she then sent me to the obgyn then I took provera & prometrium (got very womanly sick, she then senr me to a fertility specialist who put me on bc to jumpstart my system which put me in the worst pain & I had the worst month of my whole life then once af stopped he put me on Clomid 1st round was 50mg & I went jan19-march 2 no af, March 3 af started, then I was able to start my 2nd round if clomid March 5 (100mg) now I'm just waiting to see what happens bc hubby & I had intercourse fri night & saturday late afternoon I started to bleed & I'm totally confused!!!!!!
Sounds like ur on the right track...I did the bleeding all crazy between periods for a long time too...have they checked your prolactin level? Just throwin that out there. That is what started my whole journey...high prolactin. 10% weightloss is almost always helpful. Keep going with the Clomid...it ttly sucks...all of it and is so frustrating...and that in itself could be the reason u aren't getting pregnant. You are probably so in tune with your body that wether you are tracking ovulation or not u know when it is and isn't occurring and so therefore it's almost impossible not to think about it...I know and I am sorry u gotta go thru this...but thank God there are other women out there that understand because honestly I felt like I was utterly alone...I had to do all the hard work to get pregnant and he just got to do the fun stuff lol I was becoming bitter and we decided not to try anymore for a while and then ban we were pregnant lol like 2 days after we decided we conceived...literally 2 days lol crazy!!! Maybe try a vacation too...lotsa babies are made on vacation because mommy is relaxed :-)
@iemommie I felt soooo alone before I found pregly, & yes its great meeting others that have gone through this too! I hate that we have to go through such heartache & work & put strain on our bodies & it just doesn't seem fair!!!! And then there are some woman who get pregnant when the sneeze I also think that I get upset w/ hubby bc I feel like I am the one going through this and all you have to do is one thing.......but then I stop and realize that when it does happen & we are blessed w/ our lil miracle(s) then I get the honor (and I mean its going to be the best time of my life no sarcasm) to carry life inside of me!!! I can't wait! I am to the point that I just take the clomid when I'm suppose to & then if it happens it happens bc there have been a few times that I haven't experienced the awesome pleasure bc I am too focused on ok what can I do different this time to get the sperm to the egg (sorry tmi) but now I just try to not worry about it though its hard & I just try to relax & have fun & I am working hard to drop some lbs plus that's beneficial for me & bby Congrats on ur bundle!
@Gods2ndplan Thanks!!! Now that. I have a new job things are going to get better & my stress level is gonna go wayyyyyy down! I went from a sexist, jerk boss who cornered me & yelled @ me & repremended me for being cronically ill w/ my female issues to a super nice very understanding laid back boss! Hopefully this will help!!!!! And what does a hot tub or pool do???
