Thanks. Are you an every day kind of person? I know some people say every day and others say every other day is best. We kind of do it when it fits into our schedule...but skip no more than one day in between...usually. What cd are you on? I'm on cd 19. I guess I'm ovulating later than most this cycle if it won't be until the 21st or 22nd.

Michele,

Did you ever have fatigue as a side effect from fertility drugs/treatments? I am sooooo tired today. It's like my whole body is drained. I could fall asleep in about 10 seconds, literally, if I had a pillow and a bed. I'm wondering if it's just my body putting all of its energy into preparing for the egg. Whatever it is it makes it very difficult to focus on work.

Yes, I did. I agree, I think your body is spending all its energy on egg making right now!

I know how much it sucks to be at work and be so tired and feeling crappy. Hope the work day is soon over for you!

It's only the first cycle. I think that secretly DH is a little happy about this. More sex for him! But he's a little sad, too.

Good luck to everyone!!

Raspberry Tea? Fact or Fiction? new

I found this on http://www.americanpregnancy.org/pregnancyhealth/herbaltea.html and similar info on other sites. What do you gals think? At the very least, raspberry tea sounds tasty.


Quote:

Red Raspberry Leaf (Likely Safe) - Rich in iron, this herb has helped tone the uterus, increase milk production, decrease nausea, and ease labor pains. Many of the "Pregnancy Teas" commonly contain Red Raspberry leaf to help promote uterine health during pregnancy.
There is some controversy about whether this should be used throughout pregnancy or just in the second and third trimester, so many health care providers will remain cautious and only recommend using it after the first trimester.

This egg is kicking my butt. I feel pretty drained today too. But hopefully that means that all of my energy is going towards making this thing grow and develop! And hopefully it will be > 18 mm on Wed. Last night I felt like I was ready to go to bed by 8:00. Maybe tonight I will act on it Only 2 more days!!

I think an early to bed night sounds wonderful! Remember, they like the egg follicle to be 18 but really 16 is viable. The month I got pg with twins, mine never measured over 15 and my estrogen dropped early, so you never know!!
