Junebug- I am a pro at progesterone supp. I have been on them for over 6 weeks now . They are NOT fun. I don't refrigerate mine. I have to leave them on the bathroom counter to remember to take them. I just hike my leg on the counter in the bathroom and shove them back as far as I can. I found that the apperatus that came with the supp was very painful and I could do a better and less painful job with my finger.(tmi) I do it once I get up in the morning and again after my evening shower/bath. It is very messy. If you and the DH want to mess around do it than go to the progesterone.Too if you wanna mess around I suggest after bath and before progesterone. The capsules have an oily creamy substance in them that is very un-romantic!!! also the capsules will desolve sometime during the day mine at around 10am and you will feel this gross feeling like you are starting your period.... don't worry just wear a panty liner. I don't lay down after and I have never had a problem with them coming out. The more I lay down the more likely the DH is to attack and that just makes for bad as I mentioned earlier.

There it is the long and short of my life on progesterone supp.


I can't believe that nausea doesn't really set in until week 7. here I was thinking that I was doing great with minimal nausea and the worst hasn't even got here yet....uggggg. I am hoping that I will feel like eating sometime soon. I am getting hunger aches and not wanting to eat.. very uncomfortable. Nothing tastes good. Nothing is appealing....

Good luck Sailor on your beta .
