Waves to all, particularly Nanny, Mel, Belly, Ari, Pebbles, Sue and Duggs. I hope you're getting some sleep now Ari. (Did you get my pm ages ago?)
Just a quick update on the melatonin situation for anyone who's interested. It was great for the first 3 months - ovulation bang on time, loads of CM, massive boobs (for me anyway; it's all relative), etc, but lately I had been feeling in a dreadful coma from about 6pm and thought I had better reduce it from 2mg to 1mg (Penny had advised 3mg). Just as well, as this month has been weird so I thought I'd start doing OPKs again to see what was going on. I have had a positive ovulation test every day from day 14 to day 24 today and it seems as if my body is gearing up for ovulation but not getting there. Confusing fertility symptoms - cervix high and soft but CM alternately dry and then stretchy, intermittent ovary pain, temperature definitely preovulatory on the one occasion I took it.
What I think it means is that there is probably an ideal dose for fertility and it differs from person to person (as I believe is the case when using it for sleep) and 3mg or 2mg may be too high for some. It now seems to be having contraceptive properties. Ironic, seeing as I now have 3 times my previous egg reserve; but those eggs just won't come out!
