All the ovulation signs are there but no pos opk yet, day 16. Just going to stick with dtd every 4 days to cover ov. Just wondered if taking paracetamol or Ibuprofen for the cramps would have any impact on my sway? This is my first month off BC so not really used to having cramps or niggles! Tia x

No ibuprofen, it can interfere with O I've heard. Not sure on paracetamol but probably okay.
My Ovulation Chart currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP
TTC #1
- swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!
Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after removìng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic
Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

Definitely avoid ibuprofen. I'd try a heating pad or something! I've been having headaches from my hormones rising and I keep telling myself.. it will mess things up.. don't do it!

Paracetemol (Tylenol, acetominophen) is ok to take around O. Do not take ibuprofen or aspirin more than 350 mg around O, it can inhibit ovulation.

That's interesting! I'm an Advil junkie! When I get migraines I have to step it up into the realm of codeine... How does that effect swaying? Or does it?

Codeine would sway pink, we believe, but I have very little info to back it up. The old school people said "it was acidifying" but I don't think that even works, so I am just operating under the belief that most medications reduce fertility at least somewhat.

Codeine almost definitely sways pink to some extent and should not interfere with O. I take high dose opiates 24/7 and have for almost 6 years with no apparent effect on my cycle.
