    I think I can attribute my high pH (7.5+) to a lot of lemon water...good luck, ladies!

    Welcome Bec!

    YES!!!!!!! ITA, after a while, there is only so much you can control and get the way you want it.

    Hi Bec! Tink, you can test the semen ph if you get him to wear a condom one time, that's the easiest way.

    I am in the Zen mode also, I don't even test ph anymore. And apparently it doesn't matter anyway, I have CRAP EGGS now. ARGGGGGGGGGG

    Baby - I used to have almost no cm, always had to use lube. A few months back I ran out of fish oil and even with the guaifenesin I didn't have a lot, more then before the sway but not as much as with the fish oil. This month I skipped the guaifenesin but am back on the fish oil and have tons again. I've been at this since Dec and I honestly think it's the long term effect of the fish oil and diet.

    Bec - Silly girl lol, new forum for each month and we just keep rolling over

    Cheeky - My stomach is messed up from all the bsd, lemon water, and pineapple juice. I won't do it again. ACV is at many grocery stores but is at almost all health food stores.

    Tink - I have dh give me a "sample" in a cup.

    Lola my love, keep your chin up

    I am assuming wearing a condom while DTD? And testing immediately after as the PH rises the longer it sits right?

    Also thanks for all the warm welcomes! Much appreciated!

    I tried but the lubricant inside the pH gave a false reading, I gave dh a helping hand lol and collected it off his stomach if you get my drift, lmao!

    3PNB- thanks for telling me that- I am sorry you are struggling too but I must say it makes me feel better to know others are the same I may be joining you in the Zen approach if the ACV doesn't help......now to find somewhere that sells it with the mother....

    Bec- welcome
    Thankyou!
