Pregnancy Info HOME

Hello ladies! I don't know how I missed seeing this thread! I've been doing lots of research myself about ttc twins NATURALLY. I will tell you a bit about myself, but first:

sisifrank - I, too, was confused about the "wild yams" and when I looked at pictures of the wild African Yams (Cassava Root), it appeared to be more like Yucca (Yuca) instead of Camotes. When I researched "Cassava Root," it said it was also called Yucca. Yucca is a very common root in Latin America (especially South America). So now I'm really confused about what a wild yam really is - the ones eat by the tribe in West Africa.

My stats: I am 32 years old, have a 4 year old daughter and a 2 and 1/2 year old son. They are 21 months apart and I would really love to have two more children. I would love to naturally increase my chances of releasing two eggs. I've also researched herbs and foods for my husband - to increase the quality and mobility of his sperm. We've never had problems conceiving, my cycles are very regular and I tracked my cycle 3 months before trying to conceive my son. It took two cycles to conceive him. I researched Shettles method to try to conceive him.

I read so many conflicting things about Vitex, but after reading through this thread, I'm thinking that I may go to Wild Oats and buy some.

Things I am doing:
AF to O - Red Raspberry Leaf tea, Evening Primrose Oil, eating Yucca and Yams (since I have no clue still what a wild Yam is), taking baths with Epsome salt, eating healthy, including dairy in my diet, excercise etc. And of course PRAYING. So if I include Vitex, I will take it from last day of AF to O.

O to AF - Flax See Oil instead of Evening Primrose OIl, Red Raspberry Leaf tea, .... I'm considering a Progesterone Cream after O to help sustain any fertilized eggs. Since I have not problems with my cycle and progesterone levels (I chart my BBT and saliva each cycle), I"m wondering if using the cream will disrupt anything..............................
