Is anyone taking any supplements while ttc? I’m taking pregnacare conception and maca root. We was trying last year my last time trying turned into a chemical and I was so distraught we stopped. So this month we decided enoughs enough and giving it another go.
I’ve done my research in these supplements and they have quite the reputation of delaying or messing up cycles now I’m terrified I’ve been taking them for 3 days now has anyone had a bad experience with these or any successful stories?

I’m following this I’ve just ordered the exact same supplements to try!🤣 well I’ve tried the pregnacare before I didn’t find it affected anything and I don’t see how it could, it’s just natural vitamins we need in our bodies anyway but maca root is new to me! Just for reference if you didn’t know, only take maca root until you ovulate as if you end up conceiving maca root can be dangerous apparently! So I’ll be trying maca root until I get positive ovulation test and then stopping until period shows just in case! xx
I did try maca a few months ago go and I was 6 days late but I don’t think that had anything to do with maca as I’m usually late anyway 😂 I know I know I’ve done my research it also increases the chance of twins 😅 x

Same my periods are irregular anyway so makes no difference to me, I’m kinda more concerned whether I’m ovulating or not which is why I’m gonna try maca! And good I’m glad I was just saying as I didn’t know until someone told me yesterday about only taking it until ovulation!🤣 oh lovely, I have a lot of twins in my family anyway so my mums a twin and I have 6 sets of twins on my mums side 🤣🤣 xx
that’s also my concern I’m new to tracking LH as well I don’t think I’m ovulating every month which is why I’m taking maca, we have the powder so we made cupcakes with it last night instead of drinking it with tea became that shit taste rank 😂🤦🏻♀️ we also have twins in the family I went to see a pyschic as well while I was in blackpool and she said was pretty much accurate with past and current she said she sees twins or Irish twins in future so maybe hahah xx

It’s totally normal not to ovulate every month tho it’s probably more common than you think! 🥰 I totally believe in pyschics they were definitely correct with my nan and she went to Blackpool as well how funny!🤣 she was told she’d have twins and she didn’t believe it but she ended up having fraternal twins boy & girl! How bizarre, I’d love to go but I’m totally scared what they’d say!😅 xx
ahahah me too, I know when they’re talking shit and when it’s genuine and this woman was spot on 😂 keep me updated I wanna know if it works for you x

Thank you beaut! Keep me posted on yours too! 🥰 xx
How far are you into your cycle? If you don’t mind me asking. I should be off my devils week tomorrow then I think 5/6 days till fertile week xx

I’m 22 days late currently waiting for it to show 🤦♀️ all preg tests negative it’s just being chaotic 😩😩 xx
Omg did you use maca this month? Or is this your norm?x

Nooo I haven’t used it yet! It was only delivered today the maca lol🤣 that’s why I wanna try maca to try normalise it a bit, some months it’s on time and others it’s just horrendous!! xx
That sounds like a right nightmare!! Hope the maca sorts it🤞🏻x

Thank you!!! I’ll let you know if it helps 🥰 xx
