Awww, Lisa, PHOOEY! All that and being in OK too.I was rooting for you soooo hard. It'll happen next time, girl! Then we'll all be 'Who's the jerkstore NOW?! Mwahahahaa!'
Ebree, so glad to see you're ready to try again! Hopefully, one of that assortment of things will do the trick. I think if I were you, and there was no research saying it was really dangerous, I would probably want to try everything I could just to see what happened. But I also understand the anxiety about taking stuff.
Everyone else come on and finish those sweaters already! We need more Jerkstores!
I few pages back I posted an ridiculously detailed account of how to "collect" your CM, try reading that. You may want to check it squatting on the ground, since that will lower your cervix, as will "bearning down" like you are going to the bathroomDate: 7/11/2008 8:47:49 AM

Hi girls! Just wondering if you have a special technique for checking your CM. Mine seems to be pretty sparse and my fingers are kinda short compared to my cervix. I'm using the two-finger swipe mentioned on FF, but it's not really picking up much. I'm going off allergy meds next week, so maybe that will help.
Also, I was reading about the lubricant pre-seed that's supposed to be sperm-friendly. Is it worth trying if we generally don't use lubricant to begin with?
Thanks so much!
Indy, are ya really having twins? Whoa!!
According to TCOYF, "the traditional missionary position allows for deepest penetration , and will deposit the sperm closest to the cervix." It goes on to say that "some clinicials also believe that if your cervical fluid is not that fertile, or the sperm quality is marginal, it may be advantageous for you to remain lying down for up to half an hour in the basic position in which you had intercourse."Date: 7/12/2008 6:58:53 PM

Hey gals! I hope that no one think that this is TMI, but I''d like to talk about the nitty-gritty of how sex for conception might differ from sex for fun (although I hope this will be fun too!). For example, I always pee after sex (I''ve heard this is a no-no), and I''m wondering things like if it''s better for DH to have his O before or after mine. Any positions that might be especially good? I''ve also heard of some women putting a pillow under themselves afterwards (what size)?
I took the whole FF course, but they didn''t really discuss things like this. Thanks SO much!
Only 6 weeks until we TTC!
lisa: i''m a little late, but i''m sending loads of fertile fairy dist your way and hoping that this cycle is THE cycle! and i just have to add that your attitude and energy is really amazing. you''ve definitely got spunk and I''m glad to hear that it''s back!
HIL: I hope that your wedding weekend went well and that the sweltering was kept to a minimum. Good luck testing and can''t wait to hear the results!
