OMG your DP is feeling drawn to another baby now? Yay!! The last I heard you'd said he didn't want any more, ever. I'm so happy to hear that he's seen the light!

I have come to the conclusion that breastfeeding makes our cycles Absolutely. Crazy. I've been charting for 6 full mos., plus several half attempts before that, & been keeping up reading the threads in the TTC forum, & lemme tell ya, breastfeeding just messes with your hormones sooo much & it seems that women who have regular cycles while breastfeeding frequently are very few & far between! And I have to roll my eyes at myself when I remember all the work & stress that went into trying to avoid all those months after my 1st 2 babies were born! This time we barely tried to prevent & then started actively TTC starting when Xeowyn was 11 mos & I cannot get pregnant!! My cycles are sooo weird! Every single one of them has been different. I do love charting though, I am definitely seeing what my body's doing. I too am barely finding any EWCM & I've been checking daily for 6 months!

This month I've started taking Vitex, B complex vitamins & RRL tea in an attempt to normalize my cycle. I'm so impatient now. I really want another little person in my belly now!

Being in a DDC together again would be the coolest thing EVER.

When dd stopped nursing my cycles were all over the place for a few months and I had lots of spotting throughout the months as well. Now 2 years later my cycles are regular but 21-22 days apart when they used to be 28 days apart : . I don't have any answers but I hope things get more regular for you.
