Welcome Barbra and I am so sorry you have to be here. for Anthony. I wanted to TTC straight away but had to wait firstly 6 mths as I had a c sec (31 wk umbilical cord problem - wrapped around her neck) but I healed really quick so was allowed to TTC at 4 mths but it stil took us from August 2002 until Janaury 2004 to get a BFP. And since then it is now 3 yrs this cycle since we started TTC a siblig for Samuel and after 3 losses I just don't think we will ever get our last baby.
Most Drs will say that once you are physcially healed it is up to you when you are emotionally ready to try again. Good luck when you do.

Georgie there are a multitide of different ideas about vitex and each naturpopath is different just t make life more difficult!! Due to having losses i was told if I got pg agiain to continue to take it til 12 wks to help with progesterone as vitex has been known to assist in preventing m/c.. however with Joey I started dropping back the amount bit by bit so from 2 tablets to 1&1/2 at 6 wks, 1 at 8 wks, 1/2 at 10 then stop at 12... I didn't want to go thru a suden drop.. but lost Joey at 11w4d. So next time I decided I'd do as i was told and take the same dose every day all the way thru t the 12 wks.. but spotted and lsot him to infection at 7wks.. so if there is a next time i will just stop it as soo as i get a good beta or a very dark bfp.
In the meantime I take it every day all cycle thru. I was taking 2xblackmores tablets (660mg each) but now I just take the nature's own or Godlen Glow 1000mg one a day. They do help with my PMS dragon moods and also stop the AF headahces which I can get lasting a week at a time and incurable with anything even like panadeine. ouch.
The only time you don't take vitex is when you are on a clomid cycle and then you stop from cd 1 until about a week after the last clomid tablet.. so I was told anyhow.
My clomid cycle was a waste of tablets and moods and pain... I am not tkaing it this cycle as everyone here is sick and if I get it I know my chances this cycle are nix so I won't waste it on the off chance.
hug to all
Judy
