Natural Birth & Parenting
We are going on month 3 of TTC, AF arrived a couple days ago and I am in the dumps about it.
I am CD2 today, with a 28-30 day cycle. I'm not sure if my body is still trying to kick the hormones from my IUD or what but I have had no signs of ovulation other than a few hours of cramping when it actually occurs. The first cycle we TTC my luteal phase was only 11 days, this time around it was 13 so I am hoping that is good improvement. I am still nursing my daughter who will be two next month a few times a day so I'm not sure the effect that may be having on my fertility. Also, I have noticed no EWCM (or any other signs besides the cramping the day of O) in the days prior to ovulating, but I will be purshasing OPK this cycle to see if I do get a good LH surge.
Has anyone tried any fertileaid products, pre-seed, or fertili-tea with success? Anyone else take a little bit longer to conceive after an IUD?

I wouldn't worry 3 months is not long. Bfing can affect fertility. I've never tired any otc. Baby dust -
I know it isn't that long, it just stinks. You think 2 years into BFing it can still affect my fertility? Thank you!

I nursing my almost 2 yr old and have only ovulated once in the past 5 months. -
Maybe. Some ladies get pregnant ..some don't ovulate. Have u seen if u are ovulating? My fertility Dr told me to do the deed on day s 10-20..(every other). Maybe try that?

So I guess it could still really effect fertility. Or do you think there may be another reason?

I do believe I am ovluating because of the cramps I get on O day, I am keeping track using my days, and it is pretty spot on. But other than that I don't notice any other signs that is why I want to try OPKs this time.

It took me 6 months after both iud removals, i had luck with taking mucinex for about 3 days before and 3 days after ovulation, it thins out cervical mucas -
I feel like I am getting none... I purchased some EPO to try this time around. Thanks you. I am hoping we can pregnant soon!
