| Officially Trying! Well we have now officially started trying, unfortuanlty only going to have the pleasure every other weekend but hopefully it wont take long!
I have started taking Folic Acid, quit smoking/drinking and attempting to eat healthier, anything else I should be doing? | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | Only other thing is to work out when you will ovulate, if you dont know already?
If you only get to BD once every other weekend, then Im hoping you ovulate the right weekends!!
Only other thing which I am considering is taking Evening Primrose Oil too, as it increases CM apparently!
Good for you quitting smoking, I keep saying I will quit the min I get a BFP.....its such a tough habit to kick!
Lots of luck TTC. | | | | Status: Offline

| Whats CM?
I am really looking forward to this, think we are both getting into it a little. Will probably get put off trying though if the little one starts playing up!!!
OH may be working from home next week so hopefully can get more tries in hehe | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | hey hun, what point is your cycle are you? At least you know if you will be able to do it at the right time. when my hubby had to leave early for work in the morning, i ovulated the same day, i was tempted to get him to leave me a pot of sperm so i could put it in incase we missed it.
-i didnt lol, you think some crazy things when you ttc

I'm Currently Feeling: | In my personal opinion if you're just starting out I wouldn't jump into the deep end of charting like crazy. Perhaps use some OPKs around CD12-16, that way you know you're ovulating.
Good luck and enjoy yourself! |
