Well thanks but since I dropped the ball big time on this post I do want to apologize again.
Re dr. and cranberry, the unfortunate truth about doctors is that they don't always know especially where herbs are concerned. I personally don't recommend anything more than cranberry juice in the 2ww. I know you were taking them for a legit reason (UTI and NOT swaying) but just want to reiterate for anyone who read only the bit about the cranberry, I do NOT think cranberry is safe during pregnancy in the amounts that you need to take for gender swaying (dietary amounts ok) and I vastly prefer you guys do aspirin instead because you can wean off gradually rather thn having to stop cold turkey. I wouldn't have you take them and instead eat some garlic and drink a little more water and it will work itself out.
agree 110% with your gyno about bladders and uteri. Don't even worry about it! RE retroverted uterus, sometimes things can move around in there so who even knows. I would not honestly worry about it one iota anyway, it's really just a variation of normal.
again, I'm really sorry that I missed answering this when it came around, hopefully you're feeling better and this is all just water (or cran juice) under the bridge anyway.

Atomic! I just saw ur reply now. I stopped coming in the site bc my son keeps getting 105 fevers and I was taking him to do many drs to figure out what is wrong. He was hospitalized back on September with fevers for 10 days and tonsils size of an adults. I now have a tonsillectomy scheduled for December. However I found a new urologist bc this uti kept coming back and the last urologist was trying to tell me its stones. So I finally went to a dr who knows what she's doing. Lol. Turns out my blAdder was spasming. I also found crystal light triggers it as well as days that I don't drink much water. Thank you so much for responding. I happened to come on the site today bc ovulation is approaching this week. I took off from ttc last month at the drs request bc she gave me rx abd she wanted me to start fresh in hopes that bladder would stop spasming. It did up until after my period a few days ago. I'm noticing that after my period abd close to ovulation the spasms start. I'm wondering if hormones play a role somehow with relaxing the bladder. But I did have crystal light a few days ago so I'm relating the spasms more to that and stress.
I did start my husband on 2000 units of vitamin d every other day and folic acid. When we conceived ds, he was on 5 mg of folic acid throughout the day. I believe the same with his oscal plus d. I have him only taking the vitamin d once every other day and 1 mg folic acid every day. so he is still on a lot less than when we conceived ds. I plan on attempting again this month. I just know this bladder spasm thing is going to get worse abd I'm sure ill be put back onto the med urelle. Sux bc I don't want up be on meds while preggo but she said i may have no choice! Darn bladder! Can you tell me what smep means? I believe u recommended I do this in one of ur posts in this thread but I don't know the meaning. Sorry. Thanks for replying. Appreciate it. I know ur a busy woman. Thanks again.
