Random updates that don't deserve separate posts.

Spotting before AF has always been an issue for me, but until the past few cycles, it was considered normal with only a day or two before AF starts. Recently, it increased to 5 days. I took prometrium progesterone last cycle but it didn't help the spotting.

This cycle, Dr A prescribed Crinone, a progesterone gel that supposedly works better. It comes at a price. Over $200 for two weeks worth and it needs to be taken through the first trimester if I become pregnant. 

Nurse Missy and I talked about the pros and cons and her point hit home for me. She said try it for the next two weeks because if you don't you may regret it. Since this is our last cycle then we might as well go for broke. It's a good thing I got some extra money for my birthday. 

Happy birthday to me. 

There is definitely a difference between releasing three eggs and my normal one egg. My boobs have never been more a part of my life. I can't rollover at night. I can barely walk around without a bra. 

My bloat is still there. I've gained 3 pounds in three days. I will keep an eye on it as the days progress because OHSS is a real possibility. I'm hoping it may ease up before it gets to that point. 

I need to get back on track with running. My head cold, O pain and the bloat has slowed me down. My next run should be week 7, day 2, with a 2.5 mile run with no walking. I've got to step it up in order to finish the Couch 2 5K program before September!
