    OPKs

    I wasn't going to use opks as did that when ttc my boys (conceived 2nd month x2 and first month with the third) BUT coming off the pill, would it be wise to or not??? I'm on the mini pill so my bleeding is so erratic anyway - I haven't had any sporting in nearly a month and it was over a month before that since I had anything more than spotting. According to FF it's been 67 days since My last "period".x

    It depends, will it stress you out more to do the opks or to not do them? Because of my type A, boy mum typical personality, I decided for my sway I wouldn't use opks because I obsess over testing twice a day and analyzing if they are positive, etc. However half way through the month I realized I was more stressed about not knowing if I was about to O or not, so I bought some opks and felt relieved knowing that I had some idea of what my body was doing. Whatever makes you feel more relaxed is what I would recommend you do!

    Coming off the pill you're going to have to either do e4d or else OPK.

    If you don't get anything happening within 2 months being off the pill, I'd make a doc's appt. because sometimes they can give you something to kickstart it.

    NO, it makes it take LONGER for cycle to come back.

    I am not messing with turmeric. I know it may supposedly do some of the same things as V and SP (but of course would also have the same potential to mess with your cycle as well) but I have personally witnessed lots of people taking V, SP, pep tea back on IG and getting girls doing that. I hesitate to recommend anything for swaying that I view as experimental where I have not seen at least a couple dozen gals use it and get their DG first!!!
