Your Fertility!

I realise it is quite difficult to know when you are becoming fertile again after having a baby and breastfeeding. But has anyone here managed to become aware of there fertility before AF has come back?

I had regular cycles before I was pregnant, 28 - 30 days, and usually could feel when I was ovulating! Didn't start doing my temps until I was trying to conceive!

I am still breastfeeding and have been having different CM, and some twinges in my ovary although not every month.. this month however I have had a strong stabbing pain in my right side and more CM than usual! Been trying to research what different CM mean at which time!

So i guess I'm asking if anyone has any thoughts or experiences about there fertility that they can share!?

thanks,
L.

I had no idea when I did after my DD. AF came, very unexpectantly, very full on while I was at parents group! Thankfully I was last to leave, was on a plastic chair, noticed when I stood up and had the bum change bag full of wet ones within easy reach and managed to leave no trace before rushing home (still with in-case-waters-break towel inside car - thankfully) and cleaning up my self! I was bfing, so I wasn't expecting it within 3 months...
