Just Like the Old Days

I brought home con.doms tonight.

About 2 weeks after my miscarriage, we both felt frisky for a few days (which after years of prescribed se.x, is something to always take advantage of), which coincided with some good globs of stretchy cervical fluid. And yes, after 4 years of infertility, I did worry about if I would get pregnant, and did I need to worry about taking progesterone, etc. Worrying about progesterone is not "taking a break". I temped for 5 days afterward, no temp rise, so I finally stopped worrying about it. Dr. J told us to just use con.doms so we could be sure to take a break now.

And yes, I have fantasized that the con.dom will break and I will "accidentally" get pregnant. Does that fantasy of unexpected pregnancy ever go away?

My period showed today, which surprised me because it's only been 3 weeks since I miscarried. I've been going crazy with tender bre.asts the past few days, and finally today it is clear why. All those "moving" herbs I am taking to move my Blood Stagnation and clear out my uterus must be working. This also means, that if my next cycle is regular, then I get to get back into getting knocked up sooner than expected. Hooray!
