thanks atomic. As far as ewcm goes, do you think you O on the last day you see the ewcm? that was correct for me this month if the pains were infact O. I got the O pains at 10 and by 10 pm had more creamy cm.

Wow, haven't even gotten a bfp yet and already feeling the anxiety around gender. Not sure if you saw my other post about getting mega implantation/placenta burrowing pains/cramps last night with lower back pains. I just know I'm pregnant now. I had this with DS3 and had the spotting with DS2.
I wanted your opinion on whether you think getting pregnant after a chemical sways girl, also, it was my first month going off the vitex. You said you've seen lots of cases where ladies got their girl the next cycle after vitex? I also had a 3.5 day cut off with douching before and added refresh after and only used about a 1/4 of semen and only just wiped it on myself, nothing in. I then did a o+12 attempt but you could hardly call it that as it was a finger tip of semen after douching and then douched again 20 mins later. I wanted to make it really hard to get pg and my DH has huge loads...sorry tmi, so wanted to keep sperm count as low as I could. Do you think I have a good chance? I was on suppliments, and diet, but wasn't perfect on the diet.
No, you do not necessarily ovulate on the last day you see EWCM. Some people have a burst of EWCM a day or two before ovulation that then goes away, and then I and several other people have had EWCM AFTER ovulation (this happened the month I got my daughter and my ovulation was confirmed by ovulation so 100% certain) IT is all about the hormones and how much estrogen you are making and how it is affecting your body. IT can be different by the month, so you can't go off what happened in other months.Quote:

Just to clarify, and apologies because I feel like I"m being super nitpicky but just trying to keep things as accurate as I can here - you can absolutely have very severe cramping and pain in early pregnancy but it is impossible to feel a miniscule ball of cells burrowing into your uterus (and at this point it's really just sitting there, barely touching it). If your uterus was that sensitive, pregnancy and childbirth would be utterly unbearable. The reason why we have cramping in early pregnancy is because hormones are causing huge changes to your uterus - tons of blood is rushing to the area and things are moving around, changing, growing, etc. That having been said, occasionally hormones do weird things and it is not at all unusual to be tricked by symptoms in the luteal phase even when you are not pregnant. These symptoms may be more strong in the month following a chemical and vitex also makes them a lot stronger.
While anything can happen and rarely people do get pregnant with these super strict sways, if you really did all that stuff in the way you're describing, it would be pretty tough to conceive. Just to protect your emotions I would not get my hopes overly high for conception (taking your question to mean a good chance of pregnancy?? no, not a good chance). I don't guess at people's chances with swaying. Perfect sways fail all the time and laid back ones work, so I don't want to contribute to false hope or false despair by taking guesses on things I cannot know. :) Good luck.
I do appreciate your honesty. I will try not to get my hopes up for a bfp. I'll let you know either way. I should know within a week.
Af arrived and with far more cramps and more intense than i've ever had. HUGE clots. At first I felt a bit shocked because I felt so sure of what I was feeling...now I just feel super bummed...
Pinkhelp, sorry to hear AF turned up for you.
I just got of BFN, so I am also feeling bummed.
I"m sorry AF is here - what can we do to make this upcoming month your month?? are you ready to drop anything?
Ya, I think I will bd closer to O and just continue on my diet that's not super strict but keeping out the no nos. Thanks for kind words.
Atomic, I am wondering if you've seen others have what is happening with me after going off vitex? I O'd way earlier than normal Cd14, but then was spotting red on Cd24 (never had this EVER) and now am still bleeding. it's been 9 days since the start of the spotting. I've had weird cramps on and off the whole time. The day of my heaviest flow i had my normal menstral cramps that seem to come from inside and are painful.
