Whats ferning? Xxx
Ferning- is where you have this microscope, and you put ONE drop of saliva on it. then you wait five minutes or until dry- (very important for an accurate reading) so i set it up when i temp at 6 am then i leave it til i get up for the am cause i was never patient enough for the five minutes- and it tells you where you are in terms of O!
Very cool.
If you are not fertile, there will be nothing there. bits and pieces. pretty much clear.
if you are getting close to O you will be in the transitional phase, which looks something like a line with tiny little branches.
then when you are just about to O, it looks like, no kidding- a fern leaf! It's REALLY amazing what our bodies do. I'll see if i can get you a photo.
Mine is in transitional so i have the one stem and the little branches coming off. I'm the middle one. and that's actually the microscope i have:

After some real 'symptoms' this month the got me this morning. I have had sore boobs, cramping, increased CM etc and really believed this was it. I now know that anything I feel in the 2WW does not been a damn thing for me.
However, the disappointment is softened by the fact that I start Clomid tomorrow.
Good luck to anyone testing. Xx
Clomid on CD 2? Not unheard of but pretty early. Try taking them at night I always get bad headaches so taking the before bed helps
