Ooo metalic taste in mouth is a good symptom!!
hiyaBy the way... To add to the conversation about supplements, etc--
I had some great luck with primrose oil getting my cycle back on track. Copious mucous-- yippee! But that was only after screwing it up a bit with too much B6-- apparently I didn't need that. If you're considering it, you might want to ask your doc to run a baseline test to make sure you're at appropriate levels.
Another thing we did diff this time was 1) my GP put me on a very low dose of thyroid meds-- my numbers are in the normal range, not hypothyroid but on the low end..and she said that a higher number would make conception easier.
That and we inseminated 3 times. 2 times with instead cups, and 1 time with an insemination catheter (it's called "inseminationskatheter" in German, so I guess it's also that in English? Dunno). We always used preseed in the instead cups, too. the cool thing about the catheter is that the little cup at the top is smaller than the instead cups, and there's no chance of spillage during insertion, because the sperm goes in after. (BTW feel free to ask more about this thing if you want-- I'm not shy.)
Glad to have found this thread-- nice to know there are some other grrlz giving this ttc thing a go in cyberland! Makes it a bit less isolated
