It's the diet. You can totally conceive without seeing any fertile CM (and you very well may have some up at your cervix) and creamy/lotiony sways pink. Bc swaying can mess with your cycle and make things unpredictable, I strongly suggest using OPKa or BDing every 4 days all cycle long.

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 remověng 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

Mandy, remind me when your going to make your attempt?
Maiden - thanks for the reply - I was becoming curious about cm too - I've only been on the diet properly for 6 weeks and already everything is cray-cray.

Hitme, I'm in the process of ttc now so will attempt every month until I get a BFP, what about you?
Thank you for that maiden, just wanted some clarification on that as I was just a little concerned, it's good to be able to see a physical result of the diet, at least I know I'm doing it right :-) I will invest in some opks then as due to work etc we don't always get the opportunity to bd regularly. Thanks for taking the time to reply :-)Last edited by mandyp85; May 4th, 2015 at 04:05 PM.

Omg GL!
I'm Ttc next cycle - just idk when that will be. My fertility is definitely lower - although I did start getting some ew it was a trace amount, and then I had globs of that creamy action. I also never got a pos opk, aaaand im on cd 43. Sooo as soon as Af comes and goes were dtd every 4 days and then testing I guess a lot - which reminds me I better order a ton of hpts

Thank you :-) I'm very excited and nervous at the same time, I quite like this diet but I will be glad to be able to eat normally again :-) good luck to you also and I hope af comes soon, it must be a nightmare not having regular cycles but bding every 4 days sounds like a good plan, we don't have the energy for that lol. I really hope I've caught the egg this month as I have been ill and had a chemical last month so think those things would help me with ttc pink. how old is your youngest? If you don't mind me asking.

I think the chemical does help (as unfortunate as it is).
My youngest is 13 months.
I don't have the energy either to be quite honest but I gotta give it my all.
Are you doing cardio too?

If you get on eBay you can buy a tonne of OPKs for really cheap. I got 50 OPKs for about $8!!
