I did not get much information as to what I should be eating or drinking during my cycle. I am on the 4th day of stimms and have been trying to keep a healthy diet. If anyone has more information or suggestions, let me know. . .

Hi Maybloomers!!

Whewwww!!! I've just been relieved of 4 solid days of complete bed rest! Talking about wanting to pull the hair out strand by strand!?! :twisted: That is tough! I've had a horrible time, bleeding daily and went back to the dr. today. He confirmed that it is exo-tissue which has formed outside the cervix and has no impact on the outcome. :lol:

I am also feeling pains, lower back pain and lower abdominal pressure. I have very little energy, especially given I've been bed-ridden for days. Glad to read about everyone and I've missed you all!!

2ww
Katy

LittleP - my test date has been moved to May 9. Could you change it for me please? Thanks!

Hi Sher8 ..

According to my Zita West bible, she talks about nutrients necessary in week 3 a normal cycle ....(so this is your week 1 of 2ww) ...

Zinc .. important for cell division - lean meat, fish, seafood, chicken, eggs, whole grains, rye, pulses, mushrooms, parsley, wheat germ

Vit A .. important for progesterone production and to protect a developing embryo. Foods - eggs, yellow fruits and veg, whole mils and milk products, dark green leafy veg and oily fish. Must not overdose though, excess can cause birth defects.

Vit C .. believed to be linked to the release of progesterone. citrus foods, cherries, sprouted alfalfa seeds, cantaloupe melon, strawberries, broccoli, tomatoes, sweet peppers, blackcurrants, mangos, grapes, pineapples, kiwi friut, asparagus, peas, potatoes, parsely, watercress and spinach

Week4 - pay attention to foods containing essential fatty acides, vit B6, vit E, zinc and magnesium.

Vit B6 - molasses, brewers yeast, whole grains, nuts, brown rice, egg yolks, fish, poultry, pulses and seed and green leafy veg.

Vit E - wheat germs, leafy vegt, nuts, seeds, whole grains and avocados. (Vit E has anticoagulant properties, so be careful if you are taking aspirin or heparin.

Magnesium - kelp, green leafy veg, tofy, pulses, rye, buckwheat, millet, molasses, brown rice, bananas,

Sandra - thanks for the summary! I have the Zita West book and now always refer to it - but I find the food section difficult on what you should eat...so I just try to eat healthy all the time (although indulge in cupcakes or donuts- my favorite foods :oops: :oops: - every now and then).

I can't wait to see all the blooming flowers this month!!
Bring on the :D :D :D :D !!!!
