CD9 - Progress report

So we have a few positive things. The first is that it is CD9 and after having a bit of a rusty discharge yesterday, I am spot free today!  Yay!  The next is that I've been feeling awful randy. I was suspect of that until I noted a glob of EWCM. Second yay!  I haven't been starting to pick up fertile signs at CD9 since I was BFing!  Cervix is high (I think), firm and closed but this is a start.  Not going to get too excited yet and I really don't mind if I end up ovulating CD16-18 as that will be perfect for the weekend. But...you know... if I get surprised and pull a CD15 I'll be pretty happy too.

I'm not sure whether it is the B6 flog I did last cycle or the baby aspirin or both.  I've read that B6 lowers prolactin levels which can of course influence ovulation.  I never ovulated CD14, even on Clomid but maybe, minus the prolactin I'm cured post-pregnancy??  LOL ok probably being optimistic but early ovulation could mean good progesterone and good luteal phase.

Alright so the thing with aspirin, apart from thinning the blood and allowing the fertilised egg to implant easier, it also increases blood flow to the ovaries which can improve the strength of ovulation.  I am not bruising like a mad woman so the 100mg is doing ok.  I am taking it at night because I took it in the morning with my usual stuff and end up quite nauseated.  Might be the green tea too. Thought I would empty the bottle seeing it is past its best before date.  Figured it wouldn't hurt my CM.

Anyhow, definitely getting my right ride ovary stabby thing going on so there is movement at the station.  As usual, feeling optimistic...  See how optimistic I feel after ovulation!
