Hello to all who read this!

My journey to pregnancy has been a long, painful, and tiresome ordeal. I have been journey for over 10 years now. At the age of 36 I figured something must be wrong, so I took trip to the RE. Initially I was told that everything was good. I did clomid and IUI. Nothing happened. I took a break from meds. and tried on my own. I got discoveraged and went back to the RE. It was at that time that the RE told me that the last HSG that I had showed my left tube was blocked. WTH!! Why did she tell me everything looked fine!? Anyway, there is where my pain began. I went through 2 IVF cycles with her. They told me my embryos looked good and transferred 4. Yes 4. None took. I changed doctors and did another 2 IVF cycles with no pregnancy. I was so frustrated because everyone was telling how well I was doing and I was cycling like a 32 year old (by this time I was 40). I am currently 41 and still trying for #1. DH has 2 children of his own and I would just like to have 1 with him.

I came across this site while looking at something on youtube. I'm glad I did. I have read so much helpful information and the products are actually affordable compared to others. Aug/Sep I started the castor oil pack and message. Three days before my cycle was to start, after doing the packs and message, I started taking Zymessence. I was actually surprised that I had no cramping and bleed for only 4 days. I normally have 2 to 3 days cramping and bleed for 5 to 6 days.

Shortly after this, on day 6, I started the fertility cleanse. I really can't say that I had the changes that heard some women talk about such as seeing diiferent changes with their cycle like heavy mucus and things, but everyone is different. What I did notice though was that my cycle length change by 3 days. I was not happy about this. It shorten. I relaxed and didn't get too upset because I was starting the Improve Egg Kit. I knew I had to do this for at least 3 months so I just hoped that it would go back to normal. I normally cycle for 26 days and I went to 23. For 3 cycles it has been short. This last cycle, which ended today was 25 days so I guess things are leveling out. I have about a couple more weeks to go until I hit 3 month of using the Egg kit.

What I'm doing now:
I juice every day
I take the herbs from the Improve Egg kit and others (royal jelly, maca, l-arginine, coq, zymessence-almost 4 months, multi-v, womens best friend-as directed for another 2 months and then I'll break)
I do yoga and walking
I'm nervous because I'm approching the time for us to start trying again and I don't want to get stressed if things don't go the way I want. Hopefully this journey will help me stay focused and calm.

Well. I have discovered something that I haven't seen in years with my body. EWCM. This was foreign to me. If I had any mucus at all it would be scant and sticky at best. TMI. This was oozing out and very strecthy. I was too excited. I guess this herbs are truly doing their job. I can't wait until I'm officially ttc again.

Hello again.

Now I know I am not suppose to be ttc until my 3 months of taking the healthy egg kit is over, but after noticing that I actually had cervical mucus that I could talk about, I wasn't think to straight. We b'd and I didn't bed thinking that I was ttc. I just didn't prevent but subconsciously I knew what I was doing. I didn't think about it until this morning. I believe however that it was kind of late in my cycle though for anything to happen, because normally I ovulate on day 12 or 13 and last night was 14 and it was kind of late last night so.... Anyway it was exciting because although it was late for me, I still had EWCM on , so who knows.
We'll see
