Hey ladies
tommy - its hard answering questions, especially when they don't fully understand and talking about death can open up fears for them, so its hard to know what to say. Glad your hol was fab, and fingers crossed you are good to go with your next round. xx
Destiny - Oh the poor little thing, its so hard because you want to be honest but you want to shield at the same time and when they are young its hard to make them understand. How come you've written this cycle off? I'm coming up to the 2 year mark aswell, its flippin hard isn't it. xx
Bex - only takes once so you have just as much chance as other cycles....when I conceived my son we literally did it once in a month cos I'd been poorly, just happened that that once was at the right time. So fingers crossed for you. xx
Orchid - keeping my fingers crossed for you! xx
AFM - Well my period arrived this morning, so actually means I was just 4 dpo when I had my progesterone blood test, and should have been 7 dpo. Luckily it still came back as normal, but I looked at what levels should be and thought it was supposed to be over 10, but thats in america, apparently in UK, its over 30 and mine was 31.3. Not sure how much higher it would have risen but definitely would have been higher if I'd had it done on time. One good thing about not trying at the moment, my period arriving doesn't make me emotionally eat, which is a good thing as really need my weight to start moving again.
Reflexology was alright, she seems to think I have a twisted pelvis, which makes sense as I was in alot of pain when I was pregnant with my son and have experienced pain from time to time since. She seems to think she can sort it but I wonder if I'd be better off seeing an osteopath. She did a foot reading, I wouldn't say she was very accurate, but sometimes I wonder if I know myself...might sound weird but if someone says oh your really kind hearted etc etc, I'd say no not really. Like I'm totally in denial about who I am. Doesn't really make sense I know. I'll stick with it for a while. Oh she wants me to start drinking 2 litres of water a day, eat brocolli every day (good for PCOS) and cut out caffeine. She said a lack of water can affect fertility, as can caffeine and actually funnily enough when I fell pregnant with my son I was drinking 2 litres of water a day and I'd cut out caffeine so maybe she has a point. Definitely need to drink more water, I've been aware of that for a while.
