Last month we only BD once after a long  and a business trip.
But this month, everything has seemed to fall into place like the first time. I got a +OPK, used pre-seed, and plenty of
I promised my SO that I would keep the obsession talk to myself so as not to drive him crazy as I feel.
Who and how do *you* obsess during the TWW?  to everyone!

He thought I was going mad...it could be cos the  is approaching but im trying to remain positive!!
Had a few other symptoms..headaches,watery CM, constipation! but that could be the  too!
It might be all in my head!

I'm Currently Feeling: | We BD'd at least once a day, if not twice.
And I used OPKs to find out when my LH surge was taking place, so it would give me an idea of when I was ovulating.
I did BBT most of this cycle (but not all of it), but I'll still check the next few days to see if I start hitting the 98 degree mark (I run a normally lower body temperature).
I also had very distinct ovulation pains yesterday afternoon.
My recommendation is to BD as much as you can and use the OPKs to find out when the absolutely crucial time is. If you BBT, then you should also start to see a pattern after a couple of months.
This board is a great source of information - feel free to ask away!
