So please share what else it is that you do to help increase your chances on concieving?

I heard some girls taking cold medicine, others drinking lots of water.... share what you do?

I have recently been really trying to get in all my water and of course taking my prenatal vitamin.

I don't really know how much it's helping, but I'm taking B6 to help lengthen my LP. This last cycle it was still only 10 days, so I'm hoping for longer this month. I also take fish oil and prenatals, but no robitussin this cycle because they were all out at the store. You want the straight guaifenisen(sp?) and they only had the blends. Boo. I temp, check my CP and am using OPKs this cycle. After last month I can tell when I should start using my OPKs by my CP, so I'm not wasting nearly as many. My CM has never really been reliable, I wish it were.

I didn't temp, I just used OPK, this last time I could not rely on CM because I had almost none. I honestly did not do anything different to increase my chances.

I take 1mg of Folic Acid (prescribed), Target Prenatal vitamins, I'm trying to temp and check CM, but we'll see how it goes. I definitely track my periods, but this will be the first time I'll check my ovulation. I have an appointment with a Perinatalogist for consulation tomorrow, so that might help with the long term goals.

Gosh I don't really do much. I have been tracking periods and O days for awhile. We tried on fertile and o day this cycle (our 1st cycle trying again). I've been taking prenatals forever because I have to take a mega mutli and just choose to take those. That's it really.

I am taking prenatal vitamin and folic acid. I watch when my cycles start and end...exactly 28 days. I am just looking into temping and opks and cm. Good luck. If you find out anything good, please let me know.
