Evening Primrose

In all the hub-bub I stopped taking my evening primrose.  Why would I do that?  I am not sure.
2 in the morning - 2 at bed - keeps my estrogen up.  Do I blame our recent unsuccessful IUI on this?
Blame? No.  But do I think its insufficient use helped?  YUP.  I don't know why I stopped, so weird.  Kept up with the Folic, Calcium and C, but dropped the most important one to keep me functioning as a woman.  Well I am back on track!
Estrogen is key in helping to build a uterine lining.  Since my ovaries are not really into producing Estrogen anymore, I rely on Evening Primrose to help my body still function on the feminine side.  Thank You Meno-Pause.
Started a messy,  AF monday afternoon - so we call tuesday Feb 5th day one.  By yesterday I was in pain.  Lots of cramping.  Been a long time.  I start on the same dose of Menopur tomorrow, 7th!  then the egg hunt on friday the 15th.  Hopefully with the same results as last time.  Breasts are a tiny bit sore, but hardly noticeable.  I shed a few lbs too with this cycle!  Guess its been pent up for awhile.
I am cutting down my morning coffee intake so that  I will be weaned off completely by the end of the week.  Husband is taking his Folic and Omega in the morning and a special One-A-Day  formulated especially for men, with dinner.  Zinc and Selenium are extremely important for strong sperm.  This time when I have the IUI, and we are to copulate for those 2 days to increase our chances, he will get it up and do it!!!
DUH!  Frig i hate it when he gives me reasons to blame him for things!!
I don't care if he has to watch porn on the computer and fuck me, just fuck me, over and over and over again please for 2 days thank you!
This being our last go.  I do believe we have used our limit with insurance now.  So in 4 weeks i will either be anxiously beginning the 3 mnth wait for stroller shopping or anxiously waiting to move so that I can get a puppy.
STICKY BABY DUST PLEASE!
