I woke up this morning and wiped pink. I think it's the start of the but I'm not upset or anything. If this is the start of a new cycle like I'm thinking, last last cycle was 40 days and this cycle was 28 days... Just excited to start using OPKs this month and the Pre-Seed we bought. Good luck to the rest of you ladies and here's to a new start!

It seems like things are finally getting to be more normal since the loss. My cycles were all over the place! But I got exactly 28 days this cycle. Hoping for a + OPK sometime this cycle...

I'm using the Pre-Seed because as DH puts it, "I'm dry as the Sahara" and we need some type of lubricant. I don't know if I've O'd since the loss so I'm getting the OPKs to check. And I'm thinking about temping too... but I don't know how to start...

Have you thought of using something like evening primrose? Evening Primrose Oil (EPO) – Its Role In Trying to Conceive

Robitussin works well for CM around O time, robitussin for cervical mucus & ttc

I meant in addition to the lubricant to help naturally produce CM

I'm sorry about AF, but I'm glad that you are able to move on to TTC! I am trying to temp, but keep forgetting... 4 times in 13 days! OPKs seem so expensive, but I may have to buy those too. I hope they work for you!

Hey, just thought I'd chime in... cheapie OPKs can be bought online, for example at Ovulation Tests (Test Strip Format) - I got 50 of them last time. Warning: they are a bit on the difficult-to-read side, and you have to pee in a cup (which is easy to get used to but a little weird at first). I've never used any other OPKs - the drugstore ones cost WAY too much for me.

Yay for normalizing cycles!!! New cycle, clean slate. Good luck Mrs. Trimble!

I use the same OPK's as the PP and I love them- occasionally they are harder to read because the dye can spread, but 99% of the time for me they're good. I hope the OPK's and Preseed help. And Celena's suggestion of the Robitussin is great too- I used it for a few cycles and I think it helped along with the Preseed. My DH like the preseed a lot too I'm glad your cycles seem to be regulating- I'm hoping mine does that soon!

Oh, forgot to add- as for temping, just get a basal thermometer (some women use regular ones but a basal thermometer is recommened) and take your temperature the same time (if possible) before you get up. Try going to Ovulation Calendar and Ovulation Chart - Fertility Charting and go through their charting school/lessons. It helps explain a lot! And you can use the site for free or you can upgrade to the VIP. Good luck and let me know if you need any help!
