Hi Babyblessings, welcome. I also use the saliva microscope and find it extreemly helpful. Try to use if first thing in the morning, before you brush your teeth, eat or drink anything. I do a quick clean with my tounge and swallow a few times first just so the sample is clear. You will notice the sample gradually getting ferns on it and the day you see the most ferning pattern you are ovulating or are just about to. It's good you have a few months up your sleve to test it out, i needed that to figure it out properly. And yes you will know when you have finished because the ferning will be almost completly gone the next day.
3pink1blue - i hope the little guy turns around for you, it is still possible, but either way you will have your little bundle safely in your arms very very soon. Best of luck for your test on Thursday. xx
Have you joined the FertilityFriend site? You can enter all of your data in there and it gives you a graph to look at and tells you when you are most fertile. It would be good to track Temps, OPKs, Saliva, CM, and Cervical position to get the most accurate analysis. There is also some very helpful information on that site you can read through.
Yes, I only want to DTD on O day because I can definitely tell a difference in my pH on O day versus before or after. And I usually O very quickly after a +opk. THat's why I'm worried about the line being there at all today is because it usually looks like this around 2 days before O.
Kris - I've heard of many babies having complications from breech delivery. I've also seen pics of babies coming out horribly bruised. Yep so not worth it! No matter what I'll heal and get over it.
Babyblessings - we all asked a ton of questions in the beginning especially when trying to reprogram our brains after IG. There's quite a few long time swayers and a bunch that have gotten it almost figured it out and all of us are happy to help:)
5- I know I've told you this a few times but the month I got my bfp I was positive that AF was on her way. It's not over till it's over, regardless of how grouchy you are lol ;)
Cinss - Thanks hun, fx for smooth cycle and a BFP!!
Babyblessings:
I would get on Fertility Friend and start tracking your cycles that way. Have you been taking your temps? FF will tell you when you O'ed and I think it is pretty accurate, most of the time.
As far as opks, you can get cheap ones from Amazon (50 tests for 10 dollars) and you test your urine daily (or several times a day if you are obsessive like me!) starting around the time your CM starts to seem fertile. I have a 26-28 day cycle, and I usually O around CD13-14, so I start testing on CD9 or 10. That way you can see it fade in.
WHen people say "cut off" for TTC boy it is different than a "cut off" for TTC girl. For TTC boy, what people are talking about is the ammount of time that DH hold off from releasing. So before your attempt, you want your DH to abstain for 2-4 days if you can so his sperm count will be high. Here's a thread that explains everything:
