Trying to Get Pregnant

Newb introduction

Hello ladies,

As most do, I've been lurking for a bit on this board and figured it was high time I introduce myself and join in the posting. 

I went off BCP in May 2010 and we have been TTC since. I am a Speech Language Pathologist in a public preschool. Silly me thought I could plan for a summer birth...Hah! We've since decided it isn't worth the pressure to save some sick days.

So, here I am on cycle 7. Last one was annovulatory (82 days, bleh). I've been charting CM since the beginning, but started temping and upgraded to VIP last month and hope I get a better idea of when I O. I'm also thinking about starting green tea and POM this cycle. Any insight on either would be appreciated :)

  • Hi. I am an SLP too. I have used evening primrose oil this cycle which does the same thing as green tea, and I saw great results. I also take pom pills, but I don't know if they are working or not. Are you charting on FertilityFriend.com? If so, you should link your chart.
