    Some info here:
    http://www.fertilinet.com/Cervical%20Fluid%20and%20Fertility.htm

    Spermies can't fly, they swim. So they need something to swim in:cool:
    Semen helps as well.

    My longest was about 54 days:o I was never prescribed Metformin.

    What would be average for you QQ?

    I saw that website a couple of days ago, and decided that I probably didn't have much to worry about. So it's probably ok. (Anything to avoid the grapefruit juice!)

    Sounds like yesterday was a peak time to BD, and you ov'd today:)
    Which CD are you?

    13, on a 27 day cycle.

    So yeah, that would make sense :o

    And we hit that target... :)

    When you took clomid were your cycles still sporadic or did they regulate a bit?

    Sorry if this seems like grill QQ time :D

    With Clomid, one can start from CD1 to CD5, with CD5 yielding better quality eggs and CD1 more quantity of eggs.

    I was always told to take it from CD2. I think that was one of the reasons I never caught the eggy:o I don't know why the doctor didn't start me off later. Me being older, my eggs are bound to be slightly off. Stupid man:naughty:

    Have us cd 9ers starting bding yet? :-D Will start tomorrow night. Tink we will be out this month though as hubby going away with work on Friday. So will only get a quickie in Friday morning before he goes. :(

    Hey Rebekah, with the ridiculous amount of grapefruit juice I'm drinking this week (about 500ml per day), I expect to OV around next Monday, CD15. So the plan is to BD on CD10 (tomorrow) eve, CD 12 eve, CD14 morn, CD 15 eve. Hopefully that'll do the trick! :D

    Good thing about grapefruit juice is that it makes you insides more sperm friendly:cool:
    Other than that, there are things like Green Tea or cough syrups (without decongestant) you can try:)

    I thought I read somewhere that you should stay away from green tea when TTC? Or have I just read so much info about TTC that random words like green tea start ringing alarm bells in my head? :o
