Introduction & O question...

ndruley

Hi Ladies! My name is Nickey and I am new to TTC! I have read the newbie info which I have learned a lot from and has been very helpful! My H and I got married in July but since I am 31 and he is 35 we decided to start trying for our family right away. This has been my first cycle where I have seriously tracked everything. I wanted to ask if you notice any changes in your body when you are Ovulating? I've never noticed before but I also have never paid attention to my body feeling a little different so I was wondering if you all noticed anything?

welcome!

I would suggest singing up to FF, you can link to it from any of our siggy's to help you chart your temps/CM if you plan on doing that.

Around O'ing you SHOULD notice EWCM that's either stretchy or watery, usually increased sex drive, some have heighted smell etc... keep in mind tho you may never have any of these "symptoms" of ovulation. The best way to keep track is by temping, checking CM, and using OPK's if you are interested in doing that.

FF has great tutorials that helped me as well.

Good luck!

Welcome! Like PP said, Fertility Friend is great. Also check out the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility. It is a great resource. GL!

Welcome and GL! As PP mentioned, check out FF. I've noticed with myself that I always have O pain, have a practically insatiable sex drive, and can be pretty teary.

Thanks for the  responses Ladies! I do use FF but I don't have it in my ticker because I still post on other boards and don't want it everywhere. I should say that I did take an Ovulation kit test and it was positive but I noticed some pain in my stomach and and cramping in my abs the day I tested positive for the O so I was just curious if any of you ever felt that either.
