I haven't been making much CM. Charting clearly shows I am consistently ovulating. I was doing mucinex for a few months, then I started using preseed. I'm about out of preseed and wondering if I should buy more. I have heard of conceive plus and am considering that instead. Any other things to help? I have tried acupuncture but that gives me migraines. I drink lots of water and drink green tea most days. Please help!
-
I have heard grapefruit helps.
-
Vit B I've heard helps, you have to have about 100mg though.
-
Mucinex worked for me the month I got my bfp with dd.
-
I did green tea and mucinex, I've heard robitussin also
-
The month before I got KU, I started using Fertile CM, and I did notice a marked increase in my CM.
-
I was reading just this morning a daily regimen of Robitussim starting on CD10 helps.
-
I drank grapefruit juice, green tea and took mucinex
-
FertileCM worked for me!
-
@Tidybee: same!
-
@BakerBee: @Tidybee: If you take a Mucinex, when do you take it in your cycle?
-
I increased water intake in general and also starting drinking green tea - didn't really notice a huge change but got my BFP on the 2nd cycle after starting the green tea.
-
I find I get the most when I drink a ton of water, ~96oz/day. I am also drinking grapefruit juice this cycle and taking Mucinex. I used Conceive plus the past couple of cycles, but BFN. Granted, I didn't exactly use it all the time, only when I was drier before O.
@simplyfelicity: I read around CD7, that's when I started this cycle. I take 1 tablet every 12 hours.
-
@simplyfelicity: I actually happened to have a bad cold so i was taking it a few days before o until a few days after.
-
@simplyfelicity: I just took it right after my period ended until 3 days after confirmed O. I had no scientific reasoning for why.
-
I tried mucinex, robitussin, and green tea without any success. I just started drinking a stupid amount of water (100oz+ a day), and boom CM like whoa. Then, I added a glass of cranberry juice a day, and it was ri-dic-u-lous how much cm I had. Otherwise, I produce zip, zero, nada.
-
@dc yoga bee: does cranberry juice help with cm?
-
@Crystal: I'm no expert, but it worked *for me.* I tried one thing at a time to see what did the trick and it thinned mine out and I noticed it more. Mind you the internet says it's acidic and will kill sperm so I stop drinking it two days before expected o.
-
@dc yoga bee: thanks for the tip! I love cranberry juice, so yum!
Interesting about the acidity killing sperm- a few cycles ago we had great timing, but I was drinking a lot of cranberry juice because I was having uti symptoms. I wonder if I was making the environment too acidic! -
@Crystal: Maybe! It depends how much stock you want to put on ph, but sperm need a pretty balanced cm usually (your natural cm/preseed/etc). A lot of gender swaying is based on cm as well. Like more girls are produced in acidic sperm. Sorry to thread jack! Wall me for more info if interested

Raspberry Tea Leaf helped me immensely when we were TTC baby #1.
-
Vitamin b6--increased cm and lengthened my luteal phase. Got my bfp the cycle I started it!
