I have a question. I just started my 2nd cycle since birth. My baby is 5 mo and I had 11 weeks before my first cycle then I had 67 days before this one. I am nursing 2 of my youngest ( 5mo on 19 mo) I know this is what caues the changes in my cycle. I was charting using observations of CM and using OPK and saw I probably Oed on CD 61 and then I had a very short LP of only 5 days. I have had short LP like this in the past while nursing. I know this can caues isuse with implantation. I have gotten pg after a cycle with a very short lp so I am not sure how much it realy effcts me. ( ex I had one 6 day lp and concieved the cycle after that). Ok so here is the question would to try to even out your cycle now that you are O ing so help lengthen your lp (say with Vitex) or would you just leave it alone and see what comes?

I would leave it alone and leave it up to God, He designed you just the way you are and He is quite in control :flowers: .

Thanks for that. I believe this too. I guess I just start feeling maybe my body is not working right to alow conception but not implantation KWIM? It is the same thing to pill does. I do need to trust God still knows best .

I'd leave it be for now and as baby got closer to a year I would try to help things. I had short lp too that affected fertility in the past.

If it were me, I would give my body a few more cycles to hopefully even out. If my cycle did not even out then I would look at my diet (low carb is good for balancing hormones) and start with the vitex.

Which is exactly what I did before I concieved this current baby.
