Things that make me feel great about my sway:
First cycle off BC, Conceived with one attempt, skipped breakfast daily, and conceived with antihistamines
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
I didn't lose as much weekly as I had hoped, and did not exercise the 30min/daily like was recommended
Things worth mentioning:
I had used Clomid in past cycles but hadn't used it since December 2014.
Thanks so much to Atomic for all her support and question answering. Hoping for a sticky pink bean but am happy to just have a new baby (likely our last).
