TTC baby 2. And I feel like a complete newbie again!
I've forgotten everything. Terminology, dos, donts, CM types for cycles.

Literally everything.

I feel like I need to spend hours re learning everything from before.

Is this normal? Or is my brain just fried 😂😂

Take a folic acid supplement, some people take multivitamins, omega 3s, probiotics, CoeQ10 etc, but it's a personal choice, do what you feel is right for you.

Have sex (BD, DTD) especially around ovulation.

You can predict ovulation using ovulation predictor kits (opks) where you pee on a stick (POAS) or by tracking your basal body temperature (BBT) first thing in the morning before you get out of bed

Gentle exercise has been shown to increase fertility, overexercising has a negative impact

Some people like to cut down on caffeine and alcohol, others wait until they get their big fat positive (BFP)

Try to relax, as stress can hinder your. fertility

Sending baby dust, good luck!

I'm currently TTC number 2. First cycle for me, but I'm taking a laid back approach (although am doing opks out of curiosity)

Oh and you'll get egg white cervical mucus when you're fertile. It looks like raw egg whites and you can stretch it between your fingers.

When you see this, it's time to jump into bed with DH

I have the app Femometer. It literally tells me everything to expect on a day to day basis. Would recommend it.
