We've been trying since Decemberish 2010. I ovulated my first cycle off the pill and then had NO ovulation detected until June, 2011. Since then I've ovulated every month. I've always charted my period so adding in OPKs and CM was pretty easy for me. I switched from one website to another (FertilityFriend) to better track my cycles. PCOS runs in my family (even though most Doctors will tell you it doesn't....) and I was finally given a tentative diganosis of it in June 2011. My PCOS was then confirmed by my Endocrinologist. ANYWAY. I started checking my BBT towards the end of this last cycle, I actually got the see the thermal shift (98.6) drop over a couple of days (98.04, 97.9) then stay at 97.9. I was spotting before that which is normal to me, but it seems to be picking up. It appears that today will be CD1 for me, if it doesn't kick in in full swing, CD1 will definitely be tomorrow. With everything so irregular I wanted to start temping to see other cues my body is giving so I can identify ovulation better. My CM dries up the day after I get my +OPK. Also, most sites tell you that you should only BD every other day until ovulation, then BD on O day, + the following 2 days. FF's site is saying that your most fertile days are the 2 days before ovulation and the day of ovulation. OH says this cycle we're going to be bding every day that I have fertile CM. (He's a good sport about the timed sex) My LP changes from month to month when experts say it should stay about the same... I'll be going back on a vitamin b-complex in hopes of lengthening it. This last cycle it was only about 7 days. Yikes. Anyway, sorry for the lengthly intro. Feel free to post and post charts if you want. I only have 3 temps from last cycle, then the temp from today. Hopefully we can all temp ourselves to BFPs!
