Maybe baby microscope.Help please?

Hiya, from what I have heard about them they can be difficult to use and the results can be quite inconsistent depending on how much saliva you use, how dry it is when you look at it etc. I would recommend using OPKs instead because at least you know they are reliable and they are cheap if you buy them online from somewhere like baby4you.

I used a maybe baby scope and this is what i learnt.

You need to use the saliva first thing in the morning...make sure though there are no bubbles in the saliva, and it needs to completely dry. (also need to use heaps of saliva).

(you can use saliva throughout the day, just make sure its 2 hours after eating and drinking as this can effect it.).

and you just need to keep trying...some months i got loads of ferning other months i got none

Ok,
I used it again with more saliva. I got some big ferns, some little ferns and some pebbles.. so it looks like I'm going into my fertile phase.

I'm completely new to this and before my Miscarriage I didn't even know how long my cycle was.. but I think it was about 31 or 32 days. After my miscarriage my cycle is now 36 days. I started AF on the 7th of this month so it's now been 14 days... is it possible to be going into my fetile phase already? I looked up on a ovulation calculator and it said I would start ovulating about the 27th. I figure that because I have a longer cycle that I would ovulate later.. is that correct?

I might have to start a new thread as I've gone off topic. Any help would be much appreciated as I'm in the dark

Your cycle can fluctuate so you could ovulate any time really. If you don't want to get too scientific about it just BD every second day, otherwise go by your microscope or OPKs.

A short LP can cause probs (ie less than 10 days), not a long LP as far as I know. Generally your LP will remain consistent each cycle, it is the pre-ov phase (can't remember the correct lingo!) that varies.

Lots of the women on here have long cycles. Take a look in the Charting thread.
