let the games begin!!

All of my goodies have officially arrived in the mail - - my pre-seed, my Fertile Focus Ovulation Microscope, and the FertileCM Cervical Mucus Enhancer (just in case - because i haven't noticed too much EWCM and I assume that i should).

So tomorrow's CD10 - I'm going to start testing with these AND the OPKs and hopefully this time I'll figure out when exactly I'm O-ing and hopefully this will be a successful month.

Wish me lots of luck ladies Chat Icon

keep us posted on the oral opk



definitely! It looks like I'm the only one doing this technique, so I am definitely recording and I'll probably make a thread on it later just to fill you all in on if it works or not.

With the oral OPK, you're just putting saliva into a microscope and reading the results. When you look in the eyepiece it just kind of looks like craters in the moon (lol). When it starts to "Fern" then you're ovulating.

Right now I'm on CD11 and I definitely saw partial ferning up in the corner. So that basically means that I'm very likely about 2-4 days away from actually Oing. We'll see what happens the next couple of days. I'll keep you posted. To me this seems so much more reliable than the OPKs, only because the results can vary so much depending on when you pee, KWIM? With this it's just done every morning before you brush your teeth. But we'll see as the week progresses. Hopefully this time I'll finally KNOW when I'm ovulating Chat Icon

Re: let the games begin!!

Sounds really interesting. I usually just go by CM, b/c I never get up at the same time to temp. I also have issues with OPK, I totally know what you mean. I always thought I could trust the CM to tell me when I was O'ing. We shall see, if not I will be investing in the oral OPK too.

Yeah, I can't just go by the CM cause I don't understand it at all. lol. And the OPKs are so difficult for me because I never see a positive and I have to use FMU since it's so hard for me to hold it in that long without drinking and so on. Also I can't temp because I sometimes have very restless nights and I know that can screw up your charts. So I think this is what's gonna work best for me. Hopefully Chat Icon
