I checked the mail this morning and there it was, waiting on me! My OPKs and my FertileAid pills. I just popped my first pill of the day and will be using an OPK next time I go to the bathroom. Pretty sure I couldn't BD even IF it came back positive, but taking the OPKs will help me figure out where I am. Unless I've already O'd, but I'm only 22 days post-partum and was pumping for my first few days, so I'm thinking that's not likely. Maybe if I'm lucky I'll O after my PP appointment and sometime around six weeks, which should give my body enough time to heal pretty well. AND enough time for me to have a good start on my charting so I can see the temp shift, and enough time for me to clean up my act a bit. I think starting today I'm going to stop the "I couldn't eat/drink like this while I was pregnant!" indulgences and get back on my healthy track. Gotta make sure my body is somewhere some beautiful little soul would want to land
