We got ku'd on our first cycle with #1 so I didn't get around to trying any other tricks. If it takes a while for #2 I may buy some OPK's. Lots of people use those. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-and-tricks-1#post-2196751 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 13:23:50 +0000 ms.line 2196751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Using OPKs to pinpoint ovulation and then having timed intercourse is really the best "trick" there is. There's no research to back up the use of pineapple/herbs/positions - usually when they seem to "work" it's really just coincidence. If you've been having well-timed intercourse for over a year, I would suggest scheduling an appointment with an RE. :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-and-tricks-1#post-2196690 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 12:59:15 +0000 lady grey 2196690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>bumping...and following</p> <p>edit: I should add that it took me 6mo to concieve #1 and I got KU the cycle the I started actupucture. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-and-tricks-1#post-2194471 Sun, 31 May 2015 07:07:52 +0000 hellobeeboston 2194471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are you tracking? I found using Ovulation Predictor kits (OPKs) very helpful as I didn't really know when I was ovulating. Or temping is even better. Are you tracking cycles with an App or anything too, also helpful to see patterns. I would also suggest seeing an RE as it's been 2 years. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-and-tricks-1#post-2194451 Sat, 30 May 2015 23:34:47 +0000 Mrs. Bee 2194451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i would definitely see an re. :heart: </p> <p>we had charlie after 2 miscarriages, 2 years, 2 rounds of clomid, 1 iui.... then wine worked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-and-tricks-1#post-2194447 Sat, 30 May 2015 23:15:18 +0000 mrscobee 2194447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took FertilAid and FertilCM, green tea, cut carbs, but I'd agree after 2 years to see an RE. There could be bigger issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-and-tricks-1#post-2194422 Sat, 30 May 2015 21:03:22 +0000 Mrs.Someone 2194422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At that point, I'd say see an RE. Sorry you're having a rough time... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-and-tricks-1#post-2194314 Sat, 30 May 2015 15:42:48 +0000 Kixy1104 2194314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone have any tips or tricks to get pregnant? I've heard everything from eating pineapple cores, to keeping legs up in the air after BD, to taking mucinex! Any tricks that really work?? </p> <p>My TTC journey is reaching 2 years (got pregnant last year but lost baby to triploidy at 9 weeks). </p>
