Sorry, if this is a stupid question, I'm new here. DH and I will be trying to sway for a boy soon. I have severe, and I do mean severe allergies, and have been taking prescription allergy medicine since I was 9 yrs old, and am currently 25. I cannot function without my allergy meds, and I'm a lawyer often in court so I would otherwise just sneeze and be congested the entire time! I believe this is why I have absolutely no CM to speak of? Am I ruining all chances of swaying blue? :bluesperm:
Not a stupid question at all!!
We can do some things that will help make up for it. You need those meds to function so you can't just stop them, we have to work around it.
Yes, it's prob. why you have no CM. But that's ok - if you add in some Robitussin/Mucinex, it can help and even if you were just able to cut back a little bit, that may help as well.
Atomic- would Preseed also help her? At least just during their attempt(s)??
It looks like my post didn't go through. I'm currently on CD 9. Should I start taking mucinex today through CD 14 or so just to see if it produces some CM? We're not currently trying, but I'd love to see if this will help me get some cm!
YES! Totally. Great idea.Quote:

Nice! Good luck!
Well it's CD 13, and I'm still not getting any CM :sad:
Are you taking fish oil? drinking lots of water?Quote:

I was at a conference today, and only once in the morning did I notice what seemed like CM right after I peed (sorry if tmi), but then it was immediately gone. Could that have possibly been it??
Fish oil was really the only thing that worked for me, thats why i would recommend it. Have you been charting? Maybe you get a little cm for a day or 2 them more right around O?
I've charted 15 cycles. I pretty much never get cm, and have never got a positive opk either. But I have 28 day cycles like clockwork, and haven't been on any bc for 5yrs.
fish oil can def help with cm :agree:
