re: BBT

maybe i'll just do that too b/c last month my CM was pretty easy to read...even though i'm not sure what the differences are except when it's egg white b/c thats obvious.

I was pretty sure when i Oed last month because of those signs...i think i found a box of OPK at the local drug store...i think they were $20 but i don't know how many were in it.

Yeah, those usually have about 20 of them. I bought a small pack first (7 tests) and when all those were negative, I bought a bigger pack and they were all negative too. DUMB!

I'm relying mostly on CM since they say you're supposed to chart your BBT for a few cycles beforehand. I'm doing it just in case this month sucks, lol

ooh lol i'll look for the small pack first then!! I'm also gonna keep charting my BBT & CM even though i don't quite understand it very much and i'm guessing more than anything...

Just BD every other night or so and when you see circular spots (blobs) in your panties (vs lines), BD every day!

so when i see blobs BD every other night and when i have lines BD every day? whats the difference between lines and blobs? lol

No, the other way around. Lines=every other day and blobs=every day. Blobs are dried egg-white cervical mucous and the lines aren't. TCOYF says that's an easy way to tell without sticking your fingers up there and pulling the stuff out. You can also check when you wipe if you don't confuse it with semen...

okay great!! thanks! i think i did it right last month! and since my temps were up there too that made me even more sure...according to FF when should your most fertile time be?

FF hasn't told me anything yet since it's my first month temping, but I'm assuming my CM will be indicative enough. If not, we'll be BDing anyway so we'll just hope!

When you are on FF at the calendar tab there are green dots on your forecasted fertitle days and a yellow/orange dot on your forecasted ovulation day. This obviously isn't gonna be excat, but it at least gives you an idea of when!!

Ooh! I didn't know that! It says my most fertile days are the 23rd through 26th with O on the 26th. My b-day is on the 30th so let's hope for a late BFP present!

Mine lightened up majorly today (yay!) and it's old blood so I'm continuing on tonight. It sucked to wait two days between...impatient   I hope O comes faster than I think it will.
