Haha weekend what's one of those??? I would kill for one. I work all weekend, the disadvantages of running a Sports Club and working on the bar. I've got to go to work in 15minutes, and I really really don't want to move. Nothing worse than going to work when I am feeling touchy, it's all men that go in there.

What's the grapefruit all about?

When should I be drinking it?

If the forum told me to stand on a chair to get pregnant, I wonder if I would try it?????

Drinking grapefruit juice is supposed to give you good EWCM.

TMI* I am 11/12 days after my withdrawal bleed after coming off the pill and think I'm having cloudy white CM since Tuesday. Hubby and I BD'd Sunday and Tuesday. Am I right in thinking I'm a couple of days away from ov. or am I just close to getting a visit from AF? Also, would I have had CM when I was on the pill? As think I did but didn't know if that was stupid question...

I used to have CM whilst on the pill, quite a lot sometimes, its no a stupid question!

Have you read the info on any websites about the differences in CM in your cycle?

You are supposed to get 'egg white' mucus around the time of ovulation. Fertility Friend has some good articles.

If youve only just had your withdrawel bleed 11 days it seems unlikely you would get AF so soon. So you could be gearing up to ovulate.

When I came off the pill, I read so many websites of women posting how long it took them to get a first real period after coming off the pill. There are such huge variations, it really is just a case of wait and see unfortunately. I think for me it was about 6 weeks. But for you it could be shorter or longer.

if you want to know when you are ovulating for certain youll have to use opks and/or temping.

Or you can wait til you get AF, and count back approx 14 days before that. But of course your next cycle might not be the same length anyway!

Thats why I started using opks as I find them useful as I dont know what my cycle length is since coming off the pill.

The weekend is when I do all my housework, study, get the shopping done, do family stuff etc etc-by the time Monday comes I'm desperate to get back to work for a rest! (not that I'm a slacker at work of course :rotfl:)

Vit B's should be Vit B complex, but no need to take it with Soy.
Also, you only take soy for 5 days, so it's before ov so shouldn't have much effect to the baby?

Anyway, it could all be old wives tale:o
Hope you catch the eggy this cycle and there's no need to take anything:)

Sorry to drag up an old post, but I just about to buy some soy and wanted to check I had the right doseage.

No sign of AF yet, I really hope it's not playing silly !!!!!!s with another 40-odd day cycle. My temp went up this morning and I've felt all watery mouthed all day which got me all excited- then I've just realised I had my first ever flu jab yesterday and that's probably the culprit.

If AF hasn't arrived by 5th November I'll have to POAS before I go mental. That'll be 16DPO.

Is it stupid that I felt like deleting saying I'll test in 2 days time because I feel like it's jinxing myself...

*Moan alert* OH is freaking me out at the moment. One minute he is happy to TTC- talking about taking them to football and can't wait to have his own family etc. The next he comes out with comments like 'I don't like responsibility' and the like. I swear I'll end up biting through my tongue soon. It just makes me question how much I'll be raising any kids and if he even wants them at all. He's starting a business at the moment so I know the pressures on, I'm not really speaking to him much about how I feel about TTC and how upsetting I'm finding it because I don't want to add to his stress- I just wish he'd have the same bloody curtesy. Then I get furious at myself because I never in a million years thought I'd be *this* woman... Pffff.

Sorry, just had to rant somewhere- my usual ranting buddy (aka the cat) is currently licking his bum and I felt he just wasn't giving me the attention my rant deserved...

thanks for your help claire, you're all so lovely on here. I've also read some of those sites and wasn't expecting AF til Christmas but also don't think my body would be ready to ovulate yet, intriguing... the site i put above I stumbled on and is SO graphic that I thought, how can I have a baby coming out of there?!! but also really informative - only read if not squeamish or just brave id say. I didnt want to do the whole temping/stick thing as thought that would make me paranoid... and yet here I am daily, if not twice daily reading a message board dedicated to TTC whilst/instead of doing work... oops!!
