View Full Version : TTC, breast feeding and mad ov signs any idea please!
Hi i have been ttc for the last 4 months and we decided to wait for another couple of months as we are moving next April to Brisbane from Ireland but my body is totally confusing me im very lucky to have 3 little boys and its an on going joke that my DH and i just have to think pregnant and i am so im a little confused as to what is going on im putting it down to Breast feeding but surly at this stage my fertility has returned my son is 15 months he feeds about 3 time a day now some times more, any way the last 3 cycles have been fairly regular 28 days but this month i noticed ov signs like the ewcm on day 15 but as we taught we were safe we werent careful on Sunday gone and ive been having lots of ewcm all this week quite a lot too so now im wondering have i ovulated at all do i dare get my hopes up for a positive.

Hi and welcome to Bubhub!!
I'm stopping breastfeeding at the moment but have been TTC since March.
I found that its very difficult to detect ovulation only by observing CM as I got EWCM and watery CM almost every 3 - 4 days.
Also, just because you have AF back doesnt necessarily mean you are ovulating. I was told that breastfeeding produces a hormone that stops you ovulating. so if you are still breastfeeding 3+ times a day you could be supressing ovulation. Some women fall pregnant whilst breastfeeding - others need to stop completely before they are able to ovulate and therefore fall pregnant!
Sorry for waffling! :ecomcity: Hope that made sense.

hi thanks for the welcome i normally post on another forum but when i posted no one replied. :DIve been thinking its the breast feeding alright i was hoping it was a good sign every thing was getting back to normal when my cycles were getting regular again as before that they were all over the place. i was temping but stopped as i was still getting up in the night with shane and i found i was thinking about it to much as well.
this month has just thrown me though because normally i would be pregnant now if i was ov but now my AF is going to be late im on cd24 so due next week hope i dont drive my self mad wondering:)
