Hello ladies. I had my glucose test yesterday and all came back normal but my iron is low so my doctor started me on 325mg of iron per day. I've recently had a harder time going poo, I know iron can make you constipated even more. Any suggestions so I don't get too backed up? Is there a better time of day to take this? My stomach is sensitive TIA 😊
Starting TWW. Anyone else? I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
I had such a fun time abroad but I'm SO ready to be home and snuggle with my babies!!! ?? 10 days is really too long but I had loads of fun in Germany and London. Next time I go back, I'm toting everyone along with me. Way too long without munchkin kisses.
LADIES !!!!! IM IN SHOCK!!!! so my period showed up a day earlier than expected, as you know I took those two blue dyes, both had a faint positive. Well the next day, I tested with a FRER and a Walmart 88 cent test and both were very very negative. Then I had a temp drop below coverline. AF showed the following day, a day early. I just knew i was out !! Well, yesterday I was sick as hell when I woke up, i get to work, and discover that my boobs are very sore as i ran into a wall coming around the corner, lol.. i NEVER get sore breasts or nauseated during my period.. EVER !!! Something told me to take a pregnancy test although I had been bleeding for 3 days at this point. Today makes 4 !!! Still bleeding, and even had clotting!! To my surprise, myy test was positive !!!! I tested again this morning, and it's even darker !!!! How is this even possible.. I dont know what's going on, I'm in total disbelief right now!!! 10dpo, my FRER was negative, no hint of a line at all!!! Here I am, 14dpo, bleeding for 4 days now, with a positive test that keeps getting darker !!! Looking at my chart it looks like baby implanted on the same exact day AF was actually due, although it showed a day early!! I took my period off of my chart so you ladies could see my chart as a whole, but my period started on cd32, the last day of the big temp drop.. now the temps are back up !!! The test I took yesterday evening is the dried one.. its yellow tinted as it's old . The other is from this morning , first morning urine !!
This is NOT happening !!!!!!! I swear I had given up! But I'm 5 days late and I just got my BFP ???
There was once a time when I had a lot of time to myself lol So I crocheted. I kinda miss it 🤷🏻 ♀

Yes...colace for sure! I was anemic with my first 2 and the colace helped tremendously. The iron pill was awful too. Nothing like tasting metal throughout pregnancy. 🤢😩

Colace/off brand stool softener and a magnesium pill every night. It helps with leg cramps and is a mild laxative. Studies have shown it’s very beneficial to the baby as well. Drink lots of water too.

I second the colace.

Even if you just add more fiber in your diet you shouldn’t need to take anything. I like having a leafy salad for lunch, and that helps.

Yes it's over the counter basically like a stool softener I took it during both my pregnancies and after during post partum. It was easier for me than eating prunes or drinking Metamucil 🤢

@a.lares thank you for the input girl. What is colace? Is it over the counter?

Take colace. I'm severely anemic during pregnancy so iron is a must for me. I took it along with my iron but double check with ur provider first to be safe
