Really need to trust my body and stop thinking "oh ewcm, must bd" at the first sign of any. Cause all that's happened is DH is worn out and refusing to BD anymore and I have loads of ewcm and haven't ovd yet. This is the best ewcm I've had since I came off the pill. Grrr.
Oh no. Do you think it's going to happen in the next couple of days perhaps? Sometimes I get like a small bit but nothing happens, but when I've had lots I tend to ov a couple of days after. Do you think if you have a break today he would do it tomorrow?0 -

What cd are you on?
I've never really found anything that helps.
I tried lunaception & I did ovulate the earliest I ever had, however about 6 months later I ovulated at the same time & was doing nothing so I'm not so sure plus one month I did it & still ovulated late & I got sick of sleeping with an eye mask on. Plus hard to do in winter.
Not sure about taking Angus castus incase it messed it up even more. Bought soy but the tablets were too big to take.
I give up!!0 -
Cd 36,000 by my estimation lol. Cd26 todayDS born November 2013 :smileyhea0

congrats comp!
I have just been on facebook and have a feeling a sneaky pregnancy is soon to be announced. My brothers fiancee has put a comment about lots of exciting things happening this year - they are getting married and several people have commented about her having a baby....
They have already jumped ahead in the queue for weddings, will be gutted if they have jumped ahead in the baby queue too
(I know that sounds horrid, which is why I am ranting on here. It may not even be that so may be over reacting about nothing)0 -
Congrats COMP! Have a wonderful pregnancy.
Commiserations Tia- it doesn't sound horrid- I'm sure there are quite a few of us (me included) who've felt the same about relatives/ close friends.
What's lunaception Claire?0 -
Big congratulations comp!!!
:j:j:j:j:j
Just popping on for that and to ask if i can kindly be removed from the first page please.
Some of you may/maynot remember i had a chemical in December and since then have stayed off the threads as my pma was too low to come back. Stress levels from ttc are now through the roof as i know things arent as regular as they should be.
Staying online is causin my mind to run away with me so im staying off google and mse fom hereon. Well ttc related stuff anyway!!!
Its bin a long 10mths and i thank all of you for your help and support and i hope we all get our bfps very soon (me included:p)
To all those agnus castus questions, ive used it for the past3mths and it has shorted my cycle, regulated things a little more and i think i ovulated all3mths so i would recommend it.

What's lunaception Claire?
Lunaception - I first read about it on here by another poster who got pregnant after doing it.
I am remembering from when I did this about 6 months ago so these details could be wrong but if you google it youll find it anyway! Basically you know how they say that women who share the same house their cycles can like sync up? well its based on the theory that that happens because they share the same light, not the same space. And thats why we are supposed to have a 28 day cycle, because back in the dark ages before electricity and houses/curtains etc, the light at night was just from the moon - which changes every month.
The idea is that the light makes you ovulate - so when there is full moon. So in order to get a regular cycle you basically create you own light.
So from cd1, up until around cd13 you wear an eyemask at night and if possible blackout your bedroom as much as you can. then take the eyemask off, get into the sunlight in the day time and if you can sleep with a light on, or switch a light on right next to you in the mornings for 15 mins or so. You do this for a few days and you should ovulate. You then wear the eyemask for the 2ww.
I did this and ovulated on cd19, when before that I was ovulating on around cd27 as an average, so sometimes longer than that.
However the next month it didnt work for me so who knows if it was just a coincidence. But its free and easy to do - apart from in the winter months because you need to get yourself into the sunlight in the day time at your fertile time, although to be fair it has been sunny here in the day quite a lot recently.
There are tons of websites on it if you want to know more.:) I just got annoyed with the eyemask straps constantly riding up and digging into me!0
