I was supposed to run with Erin this morning. But at 1am I woke up with a horrible stomach ache. I think it's from the antibiotics Chris and I have to take prior to my HSG on Tuesday. It's not surprising that they upset my stomach. As Chris said last night, "if the wind changes you stomach hurts". At 3am I was still awake and decided that I was not going to get up at 5 to run. The crappy thing is that is the last time I am willing to run for a while.

After today I was going to go back to the Elliptical. I want to keep the high impact stuff to a minimum once the cycle gets going. Yesterday I realized the cycle is going. Which means no alcohol, no caffeine, no diet sodas, no high impact exercise. I might be acting a little a paranoid, but I think I get too. I'm trying to minimize the what ifs and ways to blame myself this cycle. Yes I know that crack whores get pregnant all the time, but I'm not taking any chances. The crack whore route might be option after we spend all the health insurance money.


As for other side effects. Your ovaries are normally the size of walnuts, mine feel like the size of a cantaloupes. I guess the good news is this is exactly how I responded in April. We'll know more after Tuesday and we'll know even more after Thursday.
