It's been over 2 years since we TTC and what do yo know, I forgot almost everything

-We been dtd every 3 days, I haven't O yet, should I assume I'm out this month? I know this is silly, very silly....I told dh that for now on we have to dtd every other day to maximize our chances

-CM is almost none existent, what do you girls do to get it less dry? Do I make sense. back when I was TTC for our first, I remember someone mentioning to take something to get more CM, but I don't remember what it was.

Sorry for the amount of questions, but I have another. Does tenderness in one breast be sign of O?

Just because you haven't ovulated yet doesn't mean you're out. You're only "out" when you start your period. You could be having a long cycle.

Was it robitussen for cm? I've never needed it, so I don't really remember.

And I always have breast tenderness when my hormones change: ovulation, AF, and pregnancy. Especially after having/nursing babies. And one always hurts more than the other.

I think Robitussen is supposed to help. Also preseed works wonders. I used it with both my boys and got pregnant fairly quickly even though I have endo. Tender breasts can be a sign that ovulation occurred. Every three days is fine but every other day is best for ttc. Are you doing anything to pinpoint ovulation?

opk.

Was it Robitussen? I wish I could remember.
I never had tenderness in my breast when O it always been before AF or when I was pg.
Af before now was different because I was still BF ds, so this is the first cycle that I'm not bf so it's different.

[Pitridge]

By the way, yes it is the Robitussin. If no bfp this cycle I will try it next cycle.

Ok NEVER stupid questions!!! That is what this board is here for!!!

Preseed is a sperm friendly lube... it mimics your CM... I have used it and also concieved VERY quickly.. The first month I used it I concieved.. And then I the third month... I also used the robutussin.. But I would forget to take it. So it didn't really work for me.

For me My bbs would get sore after ovulation. It would always be a sign the confused me as pregnancy sign!!

To improve CM: Robitussin will work as will drinking lots and lots of water.

Preseeed is a sperm friendly lubricant. Other lubricants can impede the sperm from getting to where it needs to go.

Unless you're charting, you don't really know when you O - so you're not out until AF shows.

Breast tenderness can be a sign of O, or pregnancy, or AF. I don't really consider it very reliable anymore!

Ask away! My brain is so full of TTC information I'm always glad for an opportunity to share.

[Pitridge]

Has anyone heard of using oil as lubricant? I have a book that says it's ok to use as the natural way.

I suggest pre-seed for lack of CM...I used it on the cycle I got pregnant on since I hadn't had much CM since my D&C...Good luck!!!
