Molly- your temp went up this AM! you may have ovulated! now i really really can't wait to see what happens tomorrow!
babyo- sorry your temps still make no ovulatory sense
i log in every morning to check everyone's temps. haha, what does that say about me? i don't know!
dreamers and edens- thank you ladies sooo much for your kind words. i am beyond happy. it's quite surreal.
dreamers- symptoms: had a dream on around 7 dpo about bleeding, in my dream i thought it was AF but it turned out to be implantation bleeding (no bleeding in waking life, though)
8 dpo- ate chicken and was convinced there was something wrong with it.
7/8 dpo- current: weird cramps, poking, pinching and pressure
10 dpo-current: strange type of increased appetite, so hungry before meals that my stomach HURTS
8 dpo-12 dpo: very bad sore throat, thought i was getting sick. but i never did!
10 dpo- strong pulsing in my lower abdomen
10 dpo- nipples look strange and huge, breasts only slightly tender
at the end of last week (9 dpo?) i had the strangest dream that i was pregnant and had a baby boy. it was the most beautiful and wonderful dream and i woke up feeling sure that i was pregnant.
this month we did not BD until the day before ovulation, also day of. this was advice from the midwife (save up all his swimmers till it was important in case we had a swimmers issue). i think this is what helped the most. we used pre-seed both times.
MW suggested: oils that balance hormones in phases. i took fish oil (2,000 mg) during the follicular phase and flaxseed oil (1,000 mg) as well.
after ovulation, during the LP i took EPO (1,000 mg) and ate sunflower and sesame seeds.
a couple months ago i started taking an iron supplement called "blood builder"
to you!
