Where are you in your cycle: Cycle day 17 (possibly O day
)
Symptoms if they apply: Not much at all
I had some cramping yesterday which may be O pains, who knows?
When are you thinking of testing: Not even a thought process yet
Thoughts: Wow, not sure where to begin. I'm really really excited b/c I started Maca this cycle and it has changed things ALOT, heck, I'm probably going to O today or tomorrow and I haven't O'd before cd20 in MONTHS! Not since the first two months of us trying! My cm is really abundant and I just feel better on it so I'm really excited to see if Maca is our trick to conceive.
My husband is still hurting really bad and in a wheelchair, but got a wild hair up his bum and decided to dtd last night
Granted he was pretty heavily medicated and it was just me helping him along and then getting on top at the last moment, but I'm still hopeful that there is a possibility of pregnancy this cycle. A few things working against us though is that we haven't bd in over a month so it was pretty watered down, and I've read some things on how morphine effects sperm and am a bit worried (decreased morphology, low count and apparently it effects the ability of the sperm to penetrate the egg). His urology appt should be some time next week so hopefully we can see what is going on with the boys then.
Appointments: Physical Therapy. I threw my back out last week lifting my hubbies wheelchair and am on the road to recovery.
Any new regimes, ie herbs, medications, mantras etc: Taking two capsules of Maca in the morning and prenatals. I've taken Maca pretty spottily on other cycles but it always gave me a headache so I stopped. I got a different brand and I'm not sure if it is cleaner or what, but it is wonderful
Do you have any stress triggers: My hubby not injuring himself any further and the VA not getting back to us in time for him to get the surgery before he is stuck in the wheelchair permanently. I was pretty stressed about school as well, but I dropped down to half time and am feeling pretty confident about it now.
What is working to help you be stress-free this cycle: Honestly, dropping down to half time in school helped alot. That and I finally let loose and drank a few last night
Partners feelings if applicable: He is kinda depressed, he knows I want a baby really bad and he wants one as well and he feels like he is holding up the whole process. I keep on telling him I have fifteen plus years of being fertile and not to worry, that his health is what is important right now. He is still trying to push himself to help things along though...
for you Lydiah.
Here's to your BFP, Lydiah!
I'm pretty sure I'll be joining you soon, but it will be nice to be out of limbo at least.
