How are you getting on? I am doing ok, the only odd symptom is I am having really strange periods in the day where I am exhausted! Like I could have a nap!? I don't remember feeling that way last time, but I wondered if you had anything similar? x

Honestly the first week was pretty brutal I was absolutely shattered by the afternoon could hardly keep my eyes open. I feel the second week hasn’t been quite as bad but still sweating at night the whole way through (sorry tmi) but generally I feel fine. Hope you are ok x

Just keep resting when you feel tired, drinking water and plan nice things to distract your brain. I always find the emotions grow during down reg as you approach the serious part . It’s an emotional time …. Love and hugs 😘💐💐💐💐

It’s always been a roller coaster for me this part, but I think letting myself rest is very good advice! Thank you x

I remembered what you had said about resting, I am having really strange periods in the day where I am exhausted! Like I could have a nap!? I don't remember feeling that way last time, is that something you have experience or is fairly common do you know? thank you xx

Hi LisaBeatrix. Just wanted to wish you well with this cycle, and for success. Eat a sensible diet with plenty of fruit and green veg/salad, nuts and drink plenty of water, Keep as busy as you can and have a little rest occasionally. Go for some walks too. Good luck! Diane
