Thanks for the input ladies. I also found a couple websites online that suggested strong chamomile tea. I'm brewing some right now, and added some lemon balm and peppermint from my herb garden. Hopefully that and some BD tonite will get me flowing!!! Thanks again!

These are some things I found, I also heard eating baby carrots helps.
Menstruation treatment with Hemp
Hemp can be effectively used when menses do not start at the scheduled time. Five large heads of hemps should be boiled in half a litre of water till the water is decreased to half. It should then be strained and drunk before going to sleep for two or three nights. One of the simple home remedies for menstruation
Menstruation treatment via Papaya: Home Remedy for Menstruation
The unripe papaya helps the contractions of the muscle fibres of the uterus and is thus helpful in securing a proper menstrual flow. Papaya is especially useful when menstruation ceases due to stress or fright in young unmarried girls. One of the well liked home remedies for menstruation

You could try red clover or rasberry leaf tea. The tea is controversial when used in early pregnancy because they think it stimulates the uterus to contract, so maybe it will get things going. Also I would suggest the orgasm, it might work it worked for me too. PLUS it wont be all that bad trying to get this AF started if this is the way you get to try. PLUS you'll get all that practice in for O time. Have fun trying and I hope it gets started very soon so you can start TTC. Best of luck!!!

Toni - tried that last night, but gonna try again tonight!!! We'll consider it practice for my next "O". lol. Didn't know if maybe there was something herbal or food wise that could stimulate it on....
No, I haven't had a + on my OPK yet or my monitor I will let you know when I do though. Hopefully my cycle is back to normal and this is not going to be a whacky one. They told me up to the first 4 cycles could be. I just really hope not, I need some regularity in my life.

Toni... Thank you!! I don't mind at all! All new to this...before my TL, it just happened when it happened...LOL. We did start with the BD, don't want to miss it! So, if my cycle is the same as yours, as far as LF, etc, do you get a + on your OPK by now?? This is my 3rd cycle doing BBT, but first using the OPKs. Thanks for any info!! It is very much appreciated! Big hugs, Shannon
If you are on a 30 day cycle and have a LP of 14 days than you should ovulate on CD 16. I am also on CD 14 and have 30 day cycles with a LP of 14 days and that is the day it should come for me. I would start BDing now if you already haven't started. FF suggests to do it the 3 days before 'O', 'O' day, and the day following 'O' for the best chance of conception. Sorry if you already know this just trying to help since we are the same in our cycles and I don't want to see any of you girls miss your chance to have that sweet baby. Oh, I just wanted to add if you have a LP of 12 days then I would expect 'O' around CD 18.
Sorry if this is TMI but this has gotten mine started every time. I have an orgasm, so maybe your husband would be willing to help you out. My AF usually starts by the next day. This may have to be repeated more than once depending how fast you want AF to get here. Like I said sorry if TMI but it does work, at least it does for me every time.
