Ok, so this is my first full cycle post-partum since I had my 1st PPAF a couple of weeks ago at over 10 months post-partum after completely weaning my son.

I'm starting to think we're dumb for even trying this cycle. We probably should have taken the NTNP route since I have no idea what's going on. I'm on CD15 and have no sign of anything happening, although I know before getting pregnant I O'd as late as CD18.

It's hard to tell what my CM is doing, b/c I've been taking Mucinex....I never had very fertile CM before and we used Mucinex to conceive #1, so I figured we shouldn't even mess around and might as well use it from the get-go this time. But it's making charting confusing...that and the fact that I'm terrible at distinguishing ummm the effects of BDing from CM. All my OPKs have been negative so far. I did O before my 1st PPAF, so I was hoping I would this cycle as well.

I'm thinking I'm going to O really late and have a short luteal phase again, even though I'm taking Vitamin B6. Sad. I mean, it's been almost 11 months since I gave birth and a month now since I've weaned. When is my body going to get back to normal? I'm kinda frustrated The LAM method really worked too well for me...DH and I are really ready to have another baby.

Anyway, my question is...

Has anyone had much success at TTC the first PP cycle? Or is it pretty much just a bum cycle? Did you O later than usual?How long did it take things to get back to "normal"?

Thanks for your help!

I'm on my first PP cycle right now, but not TTC. I charted my first PP cycle after my first pregnancy and it was super confusing. I got positive OPKs but I really don't think I Oed. My second cycle was A LOT more clear (though I also started temping vaginally that cycle).

Good luck!!!

My frist PP cycle at 15 months PP, I think that I O'ed on day 35 or so. I know that it was a very late one for me.
