@tmorash so sorry! I'm pretty new too and have been surprised how quickly I am really bummed out when AF rears her ugly head! Vent away, drink all the wine, and do stay hopeful (after a totally reasonable bit of sad time)!
@wannabmama23 It is so intense and it seems that no matter how I try to prep for it, talk myself down, etc., it still just hits me like a ton of bricks. I will remain hopeful, and try not to stay despondent for too long. The wine and weekend will help I think. The BF can be a bit on the stoic side, and doesn't always know how to help (even though he wants to), so I'm going to try my best to just cheer up and have a great weekend with him. It's his birthday and I don't want his whole weekend to be spent feeling like he's not succeeding in making me feel better.
Today is day 19 and I've been having watery CM and very fertile feeling. Was expecting temp to rise this morning but it didn't. We've been having a lot of sex. But another night? Blah! My DH has been using his phone for getting almost ready to blow haha which has been nice and easy. The previous two days we tried different positions bc we've been so careful to do missionary with me on a pillow I was getting bored. So I figured might as well just do something different like me on top haha. Maybe me on my back isn't good for spermies and that's why we aren't pregnant!
Anyway, I've really been enjoying the nightly mediations on my iPhone by Circle and Bloom. They've been helping me relax too.
I also started some natural remedies that are by my chiropractor because I me blood results showing inflammation, and my spit results low cortisol. I'm taking 6 pills morning and night: fish oil, vitamin D, calcium, magnesium, adrenal mend blend of roots. AND morning noon and night drops on my tongue of DHEA an prognenalone. Plus doing nightly brew infusions of nettles tea.
All of the above is going to help clear my Fallopian tube(s) and tone my uterus area. Here's visualizing that I'll get pregnant and not need to do surgery on the tube!
If we are pregnant this month I'll be so happy but my astrologist made it spin like an August baby looks like possibility. Whatever I'll be happy any month!!!
Love you all.
Home at the in laws for Yom Kippur. All you Jews have a good holiday an enjoy the family and fasting time. Remembering my father who died 11 years ago.
TTC#1 since Aug 2013, I'm 37, DH 41.
Maya Arvigo Abdominal massage (daily self care), plus TTC meditations.
I'm very sensitive to diet (gluten, avoid processed foods) and environment. Have a history of inflammation and tendinitis before going off gluten in 2009.
July 2014 - RE Visit #1: Eggs look good, Endometrioma on R ovary, HSG showed blocked R tube close to ovary. DH SA normal
DX: Endometriosis probably the IF cause and gunking up tubes. Since egg reserve is high, RE says I can wait a couple months and then get laproscopic surgery to remove endo & clear tube. If that doesn't help then move to IVF.
Dec 2014 - Saw new RE - does not recommend surgery on tube as it isn't likely to help. Doubts I have endometriosis. My endometrioma shrunk to neglible size (yay!)
@northernkhaleesi It doesn't seem there are many Canadians 'round here, let alone eastern Canadians! My Thanksgiving weekend will be out of town too -- going to the family cabin for one last weekend before winter descends upon us.
