@pastorchrisparker My son is two years old now. He latched once, ever. He just refused to after that. I tried pumping but produced almost nothing. He was bottle fed from the start and EFF from three weeks old, when I followed my OB's advice and put the pump away. If anyone tries to tell me this...

@lettielove The bigger differences are in the follicular and luteal phases - total cycle length is much less important. 17/12 is pretty darn different than 14/14, and, as Devbio says at the end of the post, this means that anyone who is simply using an app that assumes these numbers for their...

@okmarius I'm putting it out there as general info, not specifically at you, because most people have no clue what the amounts are.

@okmarius Keep in mind the amounts that constitute one drink: About 12oz of beer (a standard can at about 5% ABV) About 5oz of wine About 1oz liquor (I think a shot glass is about an ounce?) A single mixed drink could be several servings worth of alcohol in one, it's pretty easy to find beers...

@gossippk10 Lol, 6-7% is low for craft beers, even! Up to 10% can be found pretty easily, and I know there are a few that are higher. Wine is up to 17% typically.

@mcg1102 Like, even if it was just something they release on their site instead of publishing in journals etc., it would be really cool to see.

@mcg1102 Welp, saving this post! This is really, really cool. And also not surprising in the least, honestly! It lines up so much better with what I've personally seen over the years here. Especially with LP length - I see 11-13 way more than I see 14+. I wonder if FF has done any sort of...

@jonna13 Nope! By 10DPO most implantation events will have happened, and the hcg signal can get the CL pumping out more progesterone very quickly.

@missourian101 It does say that cycles over 90 days were excluded and less than 1% were over 50 days, so I doubt the longer cycles skewed things all that much in actuality.

@gregj222 I just double-checked our settings and flair is definitely enabled, so I'm not sure why it's not working for you! Very odd. We can set a flair for you, though, if you can't get it to work.

@etolkk123 That doctor is wrong. Formula is so highly regulated to make sure it meets infant nutritional needs and, in fact, is a more nutritionally complete food than breastmilk is - breastmilk lacks sufficient levels of iron, vitamin D, and vitamin K, all of which formula is fortified with...

@ril1 There are now instructions for the official app on the flair page!

@katrina2017 Well the thing with that is, "sharing what worked" doesn't actually help anyone. TTC is so much luck, outside of very specific situations (undergoing TESE to obtain sperm in the case of azoospermia, for example) you really cannot contribute any one thing to getting pregnant. And at...

@4jesus1 It very much is. A common thing I see, not just in the survey responses but in general, is that TFAB doesn't seem to be for people who haven't been trying long. This isn't true, but I can see why the perception exists. In any community, people who have been around for a while are going...

@msrathore They're certainly allowed to have iron (there are basically no rules around supplements), but it's not as easy to put iron in a gummy as it is a pill or tablet. That's why most gummies don't contain iron.

@amandahorselover The OPKs themselves are fine, as far as I know. They're just easy@home with a new name on it and e@h has been a reliable brand for years. But there's a bunch of good brands - wondfo has been the most popular for years, pregmate is really popular lately, I usually used clinical...

@lc627 And this is honestly one of the biggest problems with it! I do photography as a hobby; not too often and I'm not some fantastic photographer or anything, but it's taught me enough to know that an app like Premom is inherently extremely flawed and cannot work with any real accuracy. To get...

@mcg1102 Yeah they really could have picked a better term there. Peak doesn't matter, unless you're using CBADs where it does, but it doesn't actually mean anything has met peak levels, just that this hormone has started rising, aaaaaand this all gets way too confusing for no reason at all 🤪

@adaeuse The only difference is one uses ferrous sulfate and the other uses iron pyrophosphate - just different forms of iron fortification. The other differences are likely just as I said - differences in labeling laws between countries. In the US, at least, any ingredients that are less than...

@timingham No, you're right - "peak" only matters with the Clear Blue Advanced Digitals, where they also measure estrogen levels and peak means LH has started to surge. But for regular OPKs (the cheap dipsticks), it only matters when you got your first positive, and it doesn't make a difference...
