Can a female skip the post ovulation shed and actually be gravid? Mine is sure acting gravid but it's been about 30 days since ovulation well and no shed yet.

Could that have been the pre-ov swell?? I ask because according to Jeff, the timing from Pre-ov swell to ovulation is typically 2 weeks but can go as long as two months.
And yeah they can skip the POS, they are illiterate and don't know how to read the directions. Not to mention stubborn and even if they could read, they still would most likely not follow directions.

Most of the time they follow the directions but sometimes they do what they want without regard for the "recipe".
