Hi Ladies - I have been using Persona for the last four months & get an egg sign on day 17 & 18. The thing that i'm confused about is Ovulation! Do i ovulate on the first day or the second & when should i try to conceive for a boy!

Looking forward to heraing from you lovely ladies!

I thought the boy sperm were the best swimmers and the girl sperm lived the longest, or is it he other way around????

Sorry not much help. Ages since I had kids though and didn't try for them.

Thanks Ladies ! Just a bit confused about the ovulation - so does OVULATION takes place AFTER you get the egg signs!

Hi there

would any one know if, when you get pregnant, the cervix stays open and you still get that 'soft lip ' feeling or does it get back to that 'tip of the nose' feel?

Hi ladies again

lots of question, i am sorry. I am actually starting to chart my basal temp, but dont know how to spot my ov day. How should you pinpoint it? what temp/at what point do you know that you are ovulating?

BrilMUM · 17/02/2006 13:11

Hi Mate...the best thing to use is Persona to pinpoint you two fertile days & than you can use the Clearblue digital ovulation kits to confirm the actual day. All the ladies i'm talking to are using these and they are 99% accurate. I have been using Persona for the past four months & it gives me egg signs on day 17 & 18. I have now started to use the ovulation kits to detect the LH surge - while it's still fresh!
Hope this helps & let me know if you need any more information.

Thanks brimum. i did buy persona last year and couldnt use it because i was b/feeding. Silly me to forget about it at this time when i feel so lost.and you are right in remind it to me.cheers for the advice.

Hi fresco
With the BBT
You will see a sharp temp rise after your ov. it should be 0.2 degrees higher than your average normal temp. Are you tracking you CM? I keep recommending a website which can tell you all about these indicators you can download tou charts ere too and they have spaces for yor CM and your persona machine results
here it is
I 'm trying not to think of it as needing an exact hit! Remember the sperm hangs about to catch the egg even if you haven't had sex that day
HTH

thanks peachygirl.yes that did help
i did see a rise in my temp, and at the same time cervix open and high and feels like the low lip.as for the cm its not too reliable as i dont get too much of it,but i rely more on the temp thing. so that night we had sex which was last nite.so, i shall see. havnt had af yet and stopped b/feeding completely for 2 weeks now.had my dd2 for 10weeks.so, i dont know.cheers for advice

peachygirl · 20/02/2006 17:04

Hi fresco I'm glad your signs seem to be pointing to an Ov I haven't really perservered with the cervix thing. It took 6 months for my Cm to get to be as it should and I found that evening primrose oil really helped. I take quite a strong one but only for 1/2 my cycle I seem to Ov at day 15/16 and take it up to day 12.

hi there

its really frustrating the fact that i still havent got my periods back and i dont b/f any more for 6 weeks now.So, i am a bit lost to be honest.I still look at cervix position and cm but nothing happening yet

bobblehead · 13/03/2006 16:07

Know how you feel Fresco, its frustrating isn't it?
