Wheatgrass juice WORKS again!!

[kathrynlee]

Well I am in my 4th FULL IVF cycle. 6-7 yrs older then with my first cycle and I had the MOST eggs r/t yesterday than I have ever had!!! I had 19!!

Out of the 19, 16 fertilized and 15 are still growing today!!! At this same time in my last cycle I only had 6 still growing!!

This time I didn't workout! Did nothing . I started taking Wheatgrass shots everyother day. I also have been taking Veg and Fruit pills. It is called Juice Plus!! It is a pill of dehydrated vegies and fruits. You can look it up. I don't know what did it but I have 15 still growing. Even when I was 26 I didn't have this many I think I had 11 at this point. I wasn't even able to do a 5 day t/f the last 2 times.

I just wanted to let you know that i think the Wheatgrass and vitamins helped!! ..... now all I need is a BFP!!

kathrynlee~ WOW~ Congrats on such a successful ER! Did you take wheatgrass for your other successful cycles? Did you take it during your pregnancies? I have been taking it every other day as well but I am doing a DE-IVF. I feel pretty good--my beta is on 6/17. Hoping for my 1st bfp!
Good luck and continued success with your ET! Hope you get your bfp

Where do you get the shots and stuff? I've been looking everywhere and asking at GNC.. I've been getting the "deer in the headlights" looks from everyone..

HELP!!!!

That's awesome! Wish it worked that well at 50 - I guess one can only expect miracles to a point.

Congratulations!!!!

kathrynlee- at what point in your cycle did you start doing the Wheatgrass shots and where did you get yours?

Congrats on your great ER too.

HELP!!!!

I get mine at Whole Foods. It comes in powder form. I just add a tablespoon to water and drink. You can also mix it in a smoothie. Here's the one I use http://www.amazinggrass.com/organic-...ss-powder.html

I found them at our Natural Food Store. It is not a name brand store but it is all we have. They are the only ones around me that do it. I have been doing them since I started stims. I go in everyother day. I asked them just on a whim and they said OF COURSE!! They knew just what I was looking for. I just do 1 oz b/c it is so gross. I have found that if you put honey on your tongue first then do the shot and then put more honey on it doesn't taste so bad . The honey coats your tongue and makes it so you don't taste it.

I do think that the Juice Plus helped too!! My DH and I have been doing it for 3 months and we have SMF. It is in easy to take pills. We take two a day.

Does anyone know if the Super Foods products at GNC would work? I stopped by to check them out today and both the Super Foods Supreme and Maximum Greens powders have wheat grass listed as a primary ingredient. You get 30 days supply. Here's a link to their products: http://www.gnc.com/shop/index.jsp?ca...926&cp=2167112
