Grapefruit juice for CM Works Wonders for me!

I wanted to share my experience with grapefruit juice.  I always LOVED grapefruit juice but I stopped drinking it over the years because of the carbs.  Well, when I was younger I drank it all the time and I never had a problem with getting wet and thought that because I got older was the reason I had less CM.  Or that I'm approaching the change of life (yeah, I'm 37 LOL).  

But I started drinking it again and drank about a 64oz bottle over about 4 days.  I must say, I have much more CM this month.  Yesterday on CD9 it was like egg white and actually stretched almost two inches.  I usually have very little CM and it's still not a whole lot but that's the first time it ever stretched and I'm not even near ovulation. But then again I don't know, I got a questionable positive OPK on CD5 and CD6 and no way do I ovulate that early (normally CD14).  

I don't think I'm ordering the Pre-seed this month!!

Awesome!  I'll have to try that.  I love the taste of grapefruit juice anyway, lol.  That'd be great if it helped.

Actually it was just the store brand unsweetened regular.  I don't like the ruby red, it's a little too sweet for me.  Not sure if that would make a difference though.  The bad part is I didn't drink as much water as I normally would during this time, mainly the juice.  The green tea didn't seem to help so I stopped that this month.

Good luck!
