Low progesterone

Does anyone have a natural ways they got their corpus luteum to produce more progesterone without needing supplements? I had two babies back to back and recently miscarried a third not surprisingly. Since my cycle came back after my second, my luteal phases have been 9-10 days, usually getting my period on 10dpo. This cycle I made it to 12dpo the first time in the 14 months since I had my son but got my progesterone tested at 10dpo and it was 2 💔 so even if I implanted between 9-12 dpo there would be no chance of sustaining a pregnancy. OB won’t supplement because we aren’t “trying.” We’re very much “whatever happens, happens,” but I clearly can’t sustain a pregnancy without help or even implant. I’ve never had this issue before, but having 2 15 months apart clearly messed me up. Are there any ways to extent my luteal phase by getting my ovaries to produce more progesterone without needing supplements? Can I buy supplements over the counter? Because they won’t give them to me.

I lost my first and third due to low progesterone and needed oral pills every 6 hours the entire pregnancy to keep baby viable for my second and fourth pregnancies. I'm not sure of anything that will help other than taking progesterone itself.

Trying for baby#2 . No luck

My first is 2.5. Hubs and I have been trying for a year now (not EVERY month.. we have skipped a few). But im still not pregnant. I used the ovulation tracker and pee stick last few months and still nothing.. Im starting to get worried now esp. because my first pregnancy happened after just one try. It also doesn’t help that all my friends who wanted a second already have one and everyone keeps asking me when Im planning on having a second. Im feeling very anxious about this now.

Is this baby not sticking? Help/advice

Hey guys, I have been taking tests for line progression. The top test was two nights ago and the very bottom is tonights. I got a positive clear blue digital this afternoon (1-2 weeks)but then my evening boots test seems a lot lighter? Can this sometimes happen or is there likely something wrong. I will say too the second bottom boots test was only taken this afternoon! Would hcg drop so much in a few hours or is my urine just not great tonight? I’m panicking so any help would be really appreciated 🥺😢

Grandparents helping out

How much do grandparents help out?
Or do they not offer at all?
Interested in working parents, do they help in reducing days baby/child needs to be in nursery? Kids school holidays etc?

Do people think the boomer generation have the wrong reputation in not wanting to help with grandkids?
